Send a message 50,000 years into the future
 
KEO is a space time capsule that will be launched somewhere between 2009 and 2010. It will reenter the Earth in 50,000 years. You are allowed to enter a message on this website to go up on the capsule.

If you can find my box of Twinkies, they're probably still good.

Pie 02-24-2009 09:03 PM

Greetings to our galactic overlords.

Beestie 02-24-2009 09:07 PM

Put a twinkie on it. A tasty lunchtime snack to the guy who opens it first.

Aliantha 02-24-2009 09:09 PM

Hell, you're just being generous.

KEO is an operation free and accessible to all. All the messages received, after having being made anonymous, will be published for free consultation.
So, wait, aside from sending these messages up into space, they also claim the right to publish these messages here and now? Sounds like someone's compiling a coffeetable book. [/cynic]

It's like Who's Who of High Schools, where you are invited to join and encouraged to buy the directory when it comes out.

Hey! Did you guys find Jimmy Hoffa yet?

Beestie 02-27-2009 07:39 AM

It might be buried in there somewhere but I couldn't figure out where the ship was going and how they could be sure that it would arrive in 50,000 years.

Dear Future Earthlings:

Sorry we made such a clusterfuck of the planet. I do hope that 50,000 years of natural processes have left it once again pure and unsullied for your enjoyment.

If anyone finds my class ring, and time travel has been invented, I'd sure like to have it back.

Yours truly,
Patrick Chambers

T- bone Burnett:
We come from a blue planet light-years away
Where everything multiplies at an amazing rate
We're out here in the universe buying real estate
Hope we haven't gotten here too late

[chorus:]
We're humans from earth
We're humans from earth
You have nothing at all to fear
I think we're gonna like it here

We're looking for a planet with atmosphere
Where the air is fresh and the water clear
With lots of sun like you have here
Three or four hundred days a year

[chorus]

Bought Manhatten for a string of beads
Brought along some gadgets for you to see
Heres a crazy little thing we call TV
Do you have electricity?

[chorus]

I know we may seem pretty strange to you
But we got know-how and a golden rule
We're here to see manifest destiny through
Ain't nothing we can't get used to

We're humans from earth
We're humans from earth
