[ WP ] In 1977 , the Voyager spacecraft was sent out into deep space with a message from the people of Earth . Today we had it sent back to us .

It's been nearly 40 years since It left our atmosphere. We did n't know what we were looking for, but today it appears we have found it. Voyager has finally come home to us. From where, we do not know. I was just a boy when it left. I spent years wondering if we would ever find anything and what wonders we would discover upon its return. I have always been fascinated by the wonders that lied beyond the bounds of our Earth. My bookshelves are lined with books on astronomy, extraterrestrial conspiracies, etc. and my computer is bookmarked with several websites on the topic of aliens. I've always been enamored by the unknown. What secrets does it hold? Today was the day. Voyager was sent back to Earth with a message. The world would soon learn of the first contact made by life beyond our planet. I tuned in to the live broadcast made by the president for the reveal. 
 
 `` After 37 years of waiting, the day has finally come. The mystery of what lies beyond or atmosphere will soon be a bit clearer. Brace yourself for what we are about to witness.'' 
 
 The world was silent. This was perhaps the most momentous discovery in human history. I held my breath as President Obama began the video feed. After a few seconds of static, the video began with the familiar words ``... Never gon na give you up, never gon na let you down, never gon na run around and desert you...'' That was the last we heard from the unknown species.
