| | Carl Sagan and his colleagues did the assemblage of the information on the Voyager Golden Phonograph Record. | | | Most of the material they used was copyrighted by the creators/owners and Sagan had to get copyright releases in order to assemble the original record. | | | We have included on the Voyager web site ( http://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov) only that information for which we were able to get release, that's why everything, especially the music and the photos, is not there. |

| | Among the people working on the Voyager "Golden Record" were his mother, the writer Linda Salzman Sagan, and his father, the late, great scientist and skeptic Carl Sagan, who made a name for himself charting the outer reaches of space in literary works such as Cosmos and Contact. | | | While his voice boldly went where none had gone before, Nick Sagan grew up, witnessed the divorce of his parents and eventually began penning scripts for the screen, including some work for Star Trek: Voyager. | | | Nick Sagan had his first shot at stardom in 1977, when he was six years old. |
