If you can decipher this without revealing the spoiler, you are a genius, congrats.
Look at these instructions on how to play Voyager's Golden Record, apparently, these are instructions on how to affix the attached stylus, at what rate of rotation the record must be spun, and the proper waveform of signals generated by the record, how to know if they are viewing the images properly via an engraving of what the first image (a circle) should look like.
How are aliens suppose to decipher this? Oh my god, if someone like me, who's an IT guy can't make heads or tails of the instructions, how the hell are aliens suppose to?
I mean, I'm no genius, but are we assuming that the alien(s) that obtains this record are geniuses themselves and can decipher this?
