Listen to the music that “Beagle 2” may have lost on Mars in 2003



The other day, NASA reported the discovery of the Beagle 2 spacecraft on the surface of Mars. This device, according to the plan, was supposed to look for signs of the existence of life on Mars. Unfortunately, when landing something went wrong , and the device stopped receiving and transmitting signals.

Most likely, the device simply did not deploy all the systems, and radio communication in such conditions became impossible. However, some functions of the device remained in landing during operation. For example, playing music. It turns out that during landing, the probe was supposed to reproduce 9 notes of a musical work created by the British team Blur. According to the project manager, the device still lost music when landing, so Mars, if I may say so, heard the Earth.

Well, the song itself can be heard below, nine sounds are now collected in a long audio series of 2 minutes and 50 seconds.

By the way, this is not the first piece of music sent to outer space. So, still "Voyager" bears in itself a gold plate with works of Bach, Beethoven, Chuck Berry and Blind Willie Johnson .

In 2012, the work by will.i.am “Reach for the Stars” was broadcast from Mars to Earth. Even Curiosity played music, the composition “Happy Birthday To You”. Moreover, the rover reproduced music for a reason, but in order to create vibrations of the Mars soil, which made it possible to study some of its features.
