Ignite StarNight: Are We Alone in the Universe?
with Professor Paul Davies, Director for Beyond Center for Fundamental Concepts in Science @ ASU
Whether or not we are alone in the universe is one of the oldest questions of philosophy. About 50 years ago it became part of science when astronomers began sweeping the skies with radio telescopes in the hope of picking up a message from an extraterrestrial civilization. After half a century of nothing but an eerie silence, what can we conclude? In this lecture, Professor Davies will discuss a range of new ideas for detecting the subtle footprints of alien technology, and also address the question of whether Earth has ever been visited by extraterrestrials.
