KEO Satellite Time Capsule; Your message will be put aboard:

[url=http://www.keo.org/uk/pages/introuk.html]Go ahead, leave your message for the future:[/url] [quote][b]KEO is a satellite built to return to Earth 50,000 years from today. It shall bring back to our far away descendants every message that each and every one of us is invited to put on board.[/b][/quote] [quote]Each and every person on Earth is invited to address his or her far away descendants, be it to describe his or her life, to share a thought, to pass on his or her experiences, aspirations and dreams… to introduce him or herself within a few written lines (4 pages maximum, 6000 signs, spaces included). The messages are void of censorship: all received messages shall leave on board KEO. Following the launch of the KEO satellite, all messages will be made anonymous in replicas conserved on Earth, and will be put on the KEO website, where they will be able to be freely accessed. Hence we shall all be able to take knowledge of the different messages, and appreciate the diversity of cultures languages, ages, and continents…it will be made possible to "visit" the thoughts of people we shall never meet. By writing a personal message for the KEO project, each person is invited to join in a new form of citizen reflection and to take part in an inter-culture dialogue. Sociological analyses will be carried out based upon all the received messages so as to attempt to formulate an answer to the following questions that haunt us: "who are we?" and "what is it that we expect of ourselves?"[/quote]

  • I doubt it'll float through space for 50,000 years and not get hit by any meteors or anything.

    • [quote]My name is Sean___________ and I am nobody important. I don't know what life will be like in years to come, nor do I know if this message will actually get read. Right now there is a lot of bad things happening on this planet. There are wars where people kill each other every day, and there are people who will defend such actions with excuses like religion and politics. I hope that by the time you are reading this message, such things like war no longer exist and the world is a much better place. Of course, this may all be nonsense because it never ends. War goes on and people die. War never changes.[/quote]

      I put this: Thirteen times shall the Traitor King go forth. In the End Times the iron fortress shall be cast down. Its walls breached and its Gate forced open. Those that dwell beyond shall spill through it. The air shall burn and the ground shall melt, The Daemon shall lie down with the machine, Brother shall slay brother with fire and sword. And the sky-wound shall pour its malice forth. The Eye shall stare unblinking at its prize, and the Traitor King shall cross the bridge of stars. He shall return to finish the Warmonger's red work, Upon holy soil shall the fate of man be decided.

    • I put this: Four hundred years after Tiber Septim's reign, the beginning will meet the end, and the bloody circle will close in the Empire of Tamriel. The unworthy heirs of the Septim Dynasty have allowed the bonds of the Empire to weaken and crack. Uriel Septim the Seventh cannot repair what his ancestors ignored. The provinces fight among themselves like neglected children, drunk with rebellion, and one indomitable power hides itself, but not forever.

      • Last time this came up, I put up a transcript of the the Battle of the Maginot Sphere, in hopes that someone 50,000 years in the future thinks it is actually historically significant. I think I'll do Admirals Cole's Last Stand at Psi Serpentis this time.

      • Just sent this. [quote]I'm an extra terrestrial that has been in hiding on this planet for years and thought the best way to let humanity know of my races's existence was through this. I am doing this with out permission because I wish to contact humanity, if I were to try and do it any other way I would be caught and exiled from this planet which I have come to enjoy. We have been studying your race for quite some time and have blend in quite well, some of my people are even famous and well known. We have infiltrated your "holly wood" and even your politics, we are everywhere and I hope one day we will show ourselves to you. We have always been here, in the shadows watching afar. Thank you. [/quote] -blam!- YOU FUTURE, ALIENS.

        • Actually, for a group that are apparently able to send a satellite into the atmosphere, they have a horrible looking site.
