Time capsule in the Earth's orbit
The team led by a French artist wants to put in the orbit of Earth a time capsule that will revolve around Earth for 50,000 years until its reopening.
In addition, anyone can leave the message by opening an internet address (http://www.keo.org). Whoever wants to leave the message has a space of 6,000 words and can put in the language you want. All the information collected will be released into space in 2001 on special CD-Roms designed for the project.
Inside the capsule, the temporary capsule will include, among others, the large multidisciplinary library called “Bibliotheca de Alexandria”, current photographs, samples of air, water and earth, a sample of human blood and human photographs.
In the words of the French artist Jean-Marc Philippe, the time capsule will be like a work of art, in which each person will place his part as a mosaic. In his opinion it will be a test that will teach us what we are and what we want to be.
