Mission Transmission made history as the first radio programme intentionally broadcast into deep space, earning a Guinness World Record and the 2023 ARIA Award for Creative Innovation.
Created for Fun Kids, the UK’s children’s radio station, Mission Transmission combined education, entertainment, and groundbreaking technology. The programme was transmitted from the Royal Observatory Greenwich, London.
The show featured children sharing messages for potential extraterrestrial civilisations, interviews with space scientists, and explanations of the technology making the transmission possible.
