Abstract

In the first year of the 20th century the signals from Guglielmo Marconi’s trans-Atlantic radio transmission began their journey across the Solar System. Since then radio waves have become as common as air and our planet has become a new source of radio waves in the galaxy. All the radio signals ever produced since Marconi’s experiment are still radiating outwards through space. The history of our century exists at the speed of light in the dark spaces between the worlds.
