I'm not convinced such artifacts add anything of significant probable value over what's already implied by a sophisticated space probe of obviously unnatural origin, should it be discovered intact by aliens.

- newnewpdro 8y agoSo a priority should be to maximize how interesting our interstellar mission artifacts are to unlikely alien discoverers? The probe itself is interesting enough, and there are many reasons to be reserved about how much self-describing information we voluntarily share with completely unknown aliens. I personally find comfort in knowing there's nearly zero possibility of anything intelligent finding voyager intact.
