Time Capsule

Today, we discovered a neat website, called Keo.org. Keo is the name of a space time capsule, basically a satellite, that is set to launch in 2012 and will roam space for 50,000 years before returning to earth. The entire world is invited to submit messages to the "future earth" before the satellite is launched. There is technology for the future earth to receive the messages and instructions on how to relay them. Sounds super complicated to me, but Lola decided on her message and we submitted it. She is concerned about the state of the earth and hopes that we don't ruin it too badly for humans 50,000 years from now....
