Dolphins in Space - A Gallery

We've already looked at these two separately but there's more and all rather fantastic.

  1. the title for dolphins finding voyager is called "Voyager Found"

    Rick Sternbach on that work
    "Imagine a combined human-dolphin crew heading out to find Voyager 1 and bring it home to the Smithsonian. Imagine their surprise when they discover the gold "greetings from Earth" record and playback stylus are -gone-. Their ship is not a true interstellar spacecraft, but the precursor of one; a far extrasolar explorer powered by early laser-induced fusion engines. I'd send dolphins to do EVA only if they want to go; we do 3D moves pretty well; maybe they do them better."
