The records contain sounds and images of Earth as well as 90 minutes of music. The late astronomer Carl Sagan led the committee that chose Bach, Beethoven, Mozart and Stravinsky pieces, along with modern and Indigenous selections.Among those skipped was Johann Strauss II, whose “Blue Danube” graced Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 sci-fi opus “2001: A Space Odyssey.”

The tourist board in Vienna, where Strauss was born on Oct. 25, 1825, said it aims to correct this “cosmic mistake” by sending the “the most famous of all waltzes” to its destined home among the stars.ESA’s big radio antenna in Spain, part of the space agency’s deep-space network, will do the honors. The dish will be pointed in the direction of Voyager 1 so the “Blue Danube” heads that way.“Music connects us all through time and space in a very particular way,” ESA’s director general Josef Aschbacher said in a statement. “The European Space Agency is pleased to share the stage with Johann Strauss II and open the imaginations of future space scientists and explorers who may one day journey to the anthem of space.”

On the other, they need to be able to enforce those rules without getting sued into oblivion.

Enter the College Sports Commission, a newly created operation that will be in charge of counting the money, deciding what a “fair market” deal for players looks like and, if things go well, helping everyone in the system avoid trips to court whenever a decision comes down that someone doesn’t like.The label’s lawyers said in letters included as exhibits in the lawsuit that they have encouraged mediation and want to reach a “mutually acceptable resolution.”

But the UMG lawyers said in the letters that James and Denton were not even personally parties in the 1986 agreement that covered their initial albums, and there is no evidence that they granted the label copyright that they can now reclaim.UMG maintains that the recordings were “works made for hire,” which would not allow for the reclaiming of rights. Salt-N-Pepa’s lawsuit says the women’s agreements with the label make it very clear that they were not.

The Queens, New York, duo of James and Denton became Salt-N-Pepa in 1985. They were later joined by, who was not part of the early agreements under dispute and is not involved in the lawsuit.
