Where's My... New Planetary Home?

04/28/22 • 36 min

Sarah and Luke return for the final episode of the series, as we search for a home beyond Earth.

Life on other planets has been a staple of science fiction lore for decades, but overcoming the astronomical barriers involved might prevent it ever becoming science fact. So, what does the future of our species look like?

Thanks to MIT's Ariel Ekblaw, space scientist Bill Borucki and New Horizons’ Dr. Alan Stern for joining us, and thanks to everyone who’s listened across this series!

Where's My... Interplanetary Neighbour?

Today, we tackle the definitive science fiction question of our time: are we alone?

Sarah and Luke set out to discover who - or what - might be observing us from afar. We find that, while the chance of eventually meeting extraterrestrials is quite high, we've not yet found a way to surpass the unfathomable distances involved.

Joining us today are scientist and broadcast Seth Shostak and Bill Diamond, CEO of the SETI Institute.
