Meh Curator’s Note:

In this segment, we hear the voice of a second verser. At first we were puzzled – the earlier transmissions never mentioned a second ship. But if you listen closely, you can hear the contrast in quality – the first recordings were made with earlier technology. The other difference between the two recordings, however, is much more interesting…
