Question 2

Each Voyager spacecraft carries a postcard designed to be understandable to any aliens that might someday encounter it. On the postcard, scientists pinpointed the location of Earth by triangulating it between pulsars.

  B) Several pulsars are located within a dozen light-years of our solar system, making them useful for finding our solar system.
  C) We're pretty sure that aliens will have only radio telescopes and not optical telescopes, so they'll have a better chance of seeing pulsars than ordinary stars.
  D) Pulsars are easy to identify by their almost perfectly steady periods of pulsation.
