What can I send with STAR BOTTLE® in Deep Space

You can send a text, a photo, un video, or buy a mix of multiple combinations. 

Your message will be translated into “Binary Code", the universal mathematical language adopted by NASA and SETI since 1984, for communications towards Deep Space.

Which destinations and dates can I choose?

Launching on  December 21, 2024

Winter Solstice

The winter solstice, which occurs around 21 December in the northern hemisphere, is the shortest day of the year and marks the beginning of astronomical winter. During this event, the Earth's axis is tilted so that the North Pole is further away from the Sun, resulting in a shorter daylight duration. At the winter solstice, the Sun reaches its maximum angular distance below the celestial equator. This phenomenon is celebrated by many cultures with festivals and rituals symbolising the rebirth of the Sun and the gradual lengthening of the days.

Destinations you can choose

Sirius

È la stella più luminosa del cielo ed è raggiungibile viaggiando per circa 8,6 anni alla velocità della luce, caratteristiche che di per sé ne fanno già un target molto interessante per il progetto “Star Bottle”. È inoltre un astro visibilissimo nelle Notti di Capodanno. Gli Egizi facevano iniziare il loro anno quando rivedevano in cielo Sirio dopo un periodo di invisibilità. Intorno alla stella Sirio si è sviluppato nei secoli l’enigma dei Dogon. Questo popolo è un gruppo etnico del Mali, noto per le sue conoscenze della stella. Questa civiltà sarebbe stata da sempre al corrente della presenza di un secondo corpo celeste orbitante intorno a Sirio, con un periodo di rivoluzione di 50 anni. Conoscenze raggiunte dagli astronomi solo in epoca moderna. Una curiosità ulteriore: il celebre album Eye in the Sky degli Alan Parsons Project inizia proprio con un brano strumentale dedicato alla stella Sirio.

Sagittarius A*

Sagittarius A*, the large, indeed immense, black hole 26,670 light years away from Earth, which became "popular" thanks to the 2022 photo from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT). Sagittarius A* has a mass equal to 4.3 million "Suns" put together: a size that reaches 44 million km (the distance between our Sun and Mercury). Star Bottle's Sagittarius A* target represents an infinite journey through time for all of us. Our message will travel inexorably for the next few centuries the distance from Earth to the center of the Milky Way, where the black hole Sagittarius A* controls the life and time of the galaxy.

Europa/Jupiter

The Jovian moon Europa hosts, beneath its icy surface, an ocean of liquid water. Water is the basic element of life, at least as we know it. Therefore, being able to have a basin of liquid water on a celestial body in our Solar System unleashes fantasy and imagination on what life forms could develop in a similar environment that we also find on Earth, under the ice of Antarctica , where Lake Vostok presents conditions perhaps similar to those of the ocean of Europa. This is why the ESA (European Space Agency) Juice mission set off towards the Jupiter system last April: to closely explore its satellites, focusing on this topic and in particular on Europa, the satellite discovered in the distant nights of January 1610, by Galileo Galilei. Sending a message to Europa and its oceans therefore means retracing the evolutionary history of our planet, which started from the marine expanses. Life on this Moon may already be present.
