If you had the opportunity to send a short audio recording in Serbian into space, what would you choose to have read or spoken? What is it that you would want the universe to remember about our story on Earth?

In this unusual lecture, we will present the audio recording we chose and explain the criteria we used in our selection. We were given the opportunity, therefore, for our recording to be preserved on a nano-disk and broadcast into deep space as part of a global project. In 2027, during the commemoration of the fiftieth anniversary of the Voyager 1 mission.
