Vienna now sends Johann Strauss to the eternal everyone

The Danube Walzer, officially “on the beautiful Blue Danube”, is one of the most famous rolls in the world. Now Wientent Tourism and the European Space Organization (ESA) send the atmospheric hymn to the stars.

Together with the Viennese symphonists, the piece of music there must sound like an eternal musical connection between humanity and a possible alien life – forever. Wient Tourism Chief Norbert Kettner, Mehran Sarkarati, head of the Engineering Division Ground Station at the ESA, and the Viennese Symphonist director Jan Nas presented the special mission of Cosmic Size on Monday. But how does this transmission work?

With the latest technology. On May 31, 2025, a interlocking concert by the symphonists will be admitted to the Mak in Vienna. The Danube Walzer is digitized and sent to the space by the deep space -antenna of the ESA in Cebreros (Spain). From there he travels to the universe as an electromagnetic wave with the speed of light, sent in the direction of Voyager 1. Light speed of clock instead of three -quarters of time. 23 hours and 3 minutes later, the signal then catches up with the NASA room round, which has been in space since 1977 to convey potential alien beings of earthly masterpieces. The signal becomes a speed of 299,792 km/s, the fastest in our universe, through space.

Incidentally, the Viennese can be live during the historical transmission. The concert will be broadcast on 31 May, from 8:30 pm in the Herrmann Beach Bar – directly under the starry sky.
