Este último episodio imagina un planeta llamado Terra, cuya civilización alienígena extremadamente avanzada está terraformando y colonizando otro planeta en su sistema estelar. El episodio presenta a Noor Power Station en su examen de cómo las civilizaciones usan la energía, así como a RASSOR, un robot desarrollado por la NASA. El astrofísico Adam Frank habla sobre el Área 51, explica por qué aún no se ha descubierto vida extraterrestre y analiza la posibilidad de civilizaciones extraterrestres en otras partes del universo. El astronauta Michael Foale habla sobre una colisión en la estación espacial Mir y el peligro de la radiación espacial para los astronautas. El astro biólogo Doug Vakoch habla sobre el mensaje de Arecibo y la posibilidad de comunicación con inteligencia extraterrestre.
We feature a debate on whether or not we could initiate contact with Extraterrestrial beings. This debate features Astrobiologist and President of METI - Douglas Vakoch and Scientist and Author of Science Fiction - David Brin.
In this episode, Doug Vakoch, the President of Messaging Extra Terrestrial Intelligence - or METI, and CIIS professor, examines the social and cultural aspects of extraterrestrial contact.
In today's podcast, I sit down with Doug Vakoch, the founder of METI, or Messaging Extra Terrestrial Intelligence. We talk about why METI was founded, what their goals are, why we should try to contact aliens, and respond to some of the criticisms of the organization. If you're interested in learning more about what they do or want to get involved, you can check them out at www.meti.org.

A massive black hole lies at the center of our galaxy, a monster hunkered down in the Milky Way’s innermost sanctum. Here, the bizarre laws of General Relativity take over, as the physics we know break down. And our spaceship is headed straight for it. Join us on a special dramatized 26,000 light-year adventure to the Galaxy’s hulking heart of darkness. We explore a cosmos held together by gravity – discover why it’s not really a force – and try to avoid getting too close to a black hole, the ultimate expression of gravity. This program is part of the traveling exhibit: “Black Holes, Space Warps and Time Twists,” a production of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.
