Alien Life - Russell Kane, Lisa Kaltenegger and Chris Lintott
Brian Cox and Robin Ince venture to Glastonbury Festival with Russell Kane, Lisa Kaltenegger and Chris Lintott to discuss the search for alien life and what it might be like.
Are we alone in the universe? Brian Cox and Robin Ince venture to Glastonbury in the search for alien life and are joined in their galactic quest by comedian Russell Kane and astronomers Lisa Kaltenegger and Chris Lintott. They imagine the sorts of worlds that might best host alien life, how some of the biological and technological signatures of alien life might appear as well as how evolution might shape this life. They discuss some of the mysterious signatures that have appeared as well as how hard it is to really know what you're looking for and how objects like faulty microwaves have muddied the alien-finding waters.
