The Project
Hello Universe will engage the citizens of Earth and encourage humanity to collectively think of our global existence on this pale blue dot. The project will use technological advances to connect us and share the story of Earth's life, people, and understanding of the universe. Its discovery will teach an advanced extraterrestrial civilization about human culture and our solar system.
The Challenge
Technology can be perceived as a barrier to humanity and inclusiveness, due to it’s undisciplined influences and usage in our day-to-day lives. Something that was made to connect us, is actually disconnecting us further apart from humanity. Technology should be used as a tool to enhance our lives, not take over our lives. It should enable us, not replace us.
The Solution
To regenerate inclusion in humanity, Hello Universe pays homage and tribute to the original Golden Record that traveled on the Voyager missions. We will leverage the accessibility of appropriate technology to collect content that will educate an advanced spacefaring civilization about humanity and our solar system.

By sending a collective love letter out into the universe, together we are also writing a message home to each other.
The goal of Hello Universe is to create an open, inclusive, and accessible initiative that uses technology to give a voice to all people around the world. Minimizing barriers to participation is an important factor for our team to implement.
The Hello Universe project, if discovered by an intelligent extraterrestrial civilization, signifies that we exist(ed), and that humanity accomplished attainment of knowledge, discovery, intelligence, happiness, and exuberance from our life here on Earth.
We are curious and social beings, and wonder about life beyond our planet. There is a word in every language to greet others. Hello Universe is one universal greeting encompassing pieces of our existence, experience, and knowledge, in a friendly introduction to an unknown receiver.
