Once "going to Graceland," Paul Simon’s now going to DC! The musician is among the latest to be immortalized in the Library of Congress. We speak with Gene DeAnna, Head of the Recorded Sound Section at the Library of Congress, about what gets preserved and why. And we ask Ed Massey, manager of NASA's Voyager Interstellar mission: whatever happened to those gold records that were shot into space 30 years ago?
