A manifest of images on Voyager
Oct. 24th, 2012 11:29 pmA calibration circle,
The location of the sun,
counting in binary,
the units of time and space.
Small planets
and great;
our star
through a prism.
Mercury,
Mars,
Jupiter,
Earth.
The Nile.
Atoms and molecules.
One diagram of DNA
after another.
Cells.
A skeleton
with organs,
forward
and rear.
A ribcage,
draped muscles,
heart and lungs, back
to front.
Human genitalia.
Diagrams and
photographs of conception.
A fertilised egg.
A foetus in a diagram,
and in a jar.
Male and female bodies,
child birth,
a nursing mother,
a Malaysian father and child.
Squatting children,
A family silhouette;
continental drift and
the structure of the earth.
A desert island,
the shore.
A river,
sand dunes,
monument valley.
Mushrooms in a forest.
A leaf,
a fallen leaf,
Sequoia in snow.
Daffodils by a tree,
a crane fly near flowers;
Diagrams of vertebrate evolution.
Shells,
dolphins,
schools of fish
and a toad.
A crocodile.
An eagle,
a watering hole,
and Jane Goodall with chimps.
Bushmen in silhouette
and sepia print.
A man from Guatemala
a dancer from Bali,
Andean girls
and a Thai man, carving elephants.
An elephant.
An old man in round glasses smoking a cigarette;
an old man in lush meadows exercising a dog.
A conquering mountaineer,
a time-lapse gymnast,
Veleriy Borzov winning a race!
Teaching at school;
a globe rounded upon by children,
and cotton harvesters,
and grapes.
Fruit, toy trucks, and basketballs in a supermarket.
A fish,
A fishing boat,
Cooking fish,
A dinner party,
Licking, eating and drinking,
The great wall of China.
African brickies,
Amish barn-raising,
A house in Africa,
in New England,
and a Mexican Modernist pile.
An artist sketching by her hearth,
the Taj Mahal,
Oxford from an elevated position,
Boston;
the UN by day
and night.
Sydney opera house,
a craftsman with a drill
an assembly of machinists,
some bones in a museum.
An X-ray,
A microscope,
A traffic jam in Pakistan.
Rush hour in India,
an Ithacan dual carriageway,
and the golden gate bridge.
A train,
A plane,
and Toronto airport.
An imperilled expedition to antarctica,
a Radio telescope with cyclists alongside,
and without.
A great book of Newton's;
an astronaut in space.
A rocket launch,
a sunset,
and a string quartet.
A violin with a score.
