WHERE ARE THE EXTRATERRESTRIALS?

In a galaxy of a trillion planets, it’s hardly unreasonable to believe that there are other worlds with not only life, but intelligent life.  For a half-century, a small group of scientists has tried to detect cosmic confreres with experiments designed to eavesdrop on their radio transmissions.  But so far, there’s not been a peep from the cosmos. Does this mean that humans are the smartest beings in this part of the universe – or maybe in all of it?  We’ll talk about how we’re scanning the skies, and what could account for the silence so far.

 

ABOUT THE SERIES

In partnership with the Stranger and the Cloud Room, Goodship Higher Education presents intimate conversations with some of our regions most brilliant minds, covering topics from space travel to re-animation to modernist cuisine. Our goal is to present some of the most innovative, mind-bending, revolutionary and extraordinary ideas happening in art, technology, science and philosophy. And we encourage both the audience and speakers to hop “on the Goodship” (aka have previously consumed marijuana). We look at the world through a different lens when high, and we think that it is a fun and enlightening experiment to partner altered states with big ideas.
