Space: How UK radio station broke world record with first programme beamed into deep space

Last Monday, Fun Kids Radio – a national children’s and pop digital radio station – broke a Guinness World Record when it beamed the first radio programme into deep space.

Deep space exploration is described as the branch of astronomy, astronautics and space technology that’s involved with exploring the distant regions of outer space.

The idea which was coined “Mission Transmission” was launched into the galaxy from the Royal Observatory, in Greenwich London.

Tim Peake – formerly a crew member on the International Space Station – attended the event, which was simultaneously broadcast live across the UK.
