They show the position of the Sun , relative to 14 pulsars, which are identified by the unique timing of their electromagnetic pulses, so that Earth's position both in space and time can be calculated by potential extraterrestrial intelligence This represents a display of stellar landmarks that give the position and frequency of 14 pulsars relative to the center of the map's home star, the Earth's Sun Frank Drake used 14 pulsars to create a map with our sun at the center
