A Conversation on Extraterrestrial Life, Science, and the Search for Answers
Join a history educator and researcher for The Alien Hypothesis: Examining the Evidence, a fascinating exploration of one of humanity’s most enduring questions: Are we truly alone in the universe? Together, we'll examine the scientific evidence behind the possibility of extraterrestrial life, explore what we know and what we still don't know about unexplained phenomena, and consider how researchers search for signs of life beyond Earth.
What We'll Cover:
• The possibility of life beyond Earth - Explore why scientists believe extraterrestrial life is possible and what conditions could support life elsewhere in the universe.
• Examining the evidence - Take a closer look at UFO/UAP observations, astronomical discoveries, and scientific findings that have sparked questions about extraterrestrial life.
• The search for answers - Discover how scientists investigate extraordinary claims and search for credible signs of life beyond our planet.
