Synopsis: Are we alone in the universe, or is the truth out there? Join us for a journey through the galaxy as we separate the science from the sci-fi. We’ll dive into the hunt for "Earth 2.0," how astronomers are sniffing alien atmospheres for signs of life, and the times the universe gave us a "maybe." From the mysterious "Wow!" signal and Martian meteorites to the interstellar object that moved just a little too weirdly, we’ll explore the evidence. Come grab a pint and find out: is it aliens?
