When were the satellites Voyager 1 & 2 launched ?

Question

And what was the contents of the "infamous " gold disk ?

Answer 1

On September 5, 1977, Voyager 1,
Voyager 2 was launched August 20, 1977
gold disk - The Voyager message is carried by a phonograph record-a 12-inch gold-plated copper disk containing sounds and images selected to portray the diversity of life and culture on Earth.

Answer 2

They were launched September 5, 1977 and August 20, 1977. The gold disk is a record album containing the "sounds of Earth." This disk is not infamous.

The infamous item is a plaque engraved with a nude man and woman (among other things), which riled religious nuts who criticized NASA for sending "pornography" into space. The plaque went into space with Pioneer 10, which is a different space probe.

This question is so easily answered with a web search that I can only assume you asked it for appearance's sake. It could not have been asked to gain information, since you could have had it in 10% of the time by typing "Voyager" and "launch date" into a search engine window.

Answer 3

In the 70s, the disc contained messages from Earth.
