On March 3, 1972, Pioneer 10, the first man-made object that departed our solar system, embarked on its journey. In case intelligent life forms from another planetary system ever discover the spacecraft, it carries a gold-anodized aluminum plaque. The Pioneer plaque showcases human male and female figures and symbols that convey information about the spacecraft's origin.
