1970s in science and technologyThis article is a summary of the 1970s in science and technology. The 1970s in science and technology reached its height with the ambitious Voyager Program, which sent the Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 uncrewed expeditions to several of the outer planets in the Solar System. The program also included a Voyager Golden Record with the spaceships in hopes of presenting aspects of life on Earth to intelligent alien life forms. The record contained pictures and other data about human beings and other living beings on earth.
1970s in video gamesThe 1970s was the first decade in the history of the video game industry.

Notable games released in the 1970s included The Oregon Trail, Pong, Space Invaders, Asteroids, Galaxian, and Zork.
Années 1970 en modethumb|Ensembles-pyjamas d'Yves Saint Laurent (rouge et vert, à gauche, vers 1970) et Halston (bleu, à droite, 1976). Les années 1970 voient de profonds changements dans la mode par rapport à la décennie passée. Alors que Londres insufflait les tendances de la mode des années 1960, New York et les États-Unis deviennent le centre de la mode. Globalement, deux courants dominent le monde occidental : les vêtements fantaisie représentant une mode permissive et les tenues faciles à porter, dans la lignée du prêt-à-porter.
1970s in televisionThe decade of the 1970s saw significant changes in television programming in both the United Kingdom and the United States. The trends included the decline of the "family sitcoms" and rural-oriented programs to more socially contemporary shows and "young, hip and urban" sitcoms in the United States and the permanent establishment of colour television in the United Kingdom. In 1967, BBC Two had started trials of their new colour service, and it was gradually rolled out over the next few years.
