Message:
"As the Secretary General of the United Nations, an organization
of the 147 member states who represent almost all of the human inhabitants of the planet
Earth. I send greetings on behalf of the people of our planet. We step out of our solar
system into the universe seeking only peace and friendship, to teach if we are called
upon, to be taught if we are fortunate. We know full well that our planet and all its
inhabitants are but a small part of this immense universe that surrounds us and it is with
humility and hope that we take this step."
Kurt Waldheim, Secretary General, United Nations
