Science: Paul Davies: Extraterrestrial Communication
Judging from the popularity of District 9 and V, and countless books and blogs that chronicle our quest for alien communication, it appears we are a species craving contact. Why haven't we gotten a response? Professor Paul Davies, Chairman of the SETI Post-Detection Taskgroup, says we've spent a lot of time and money searching for E.T.s, but we're doing it all wrong. Last appearing at Town Hall to discuss 2007's Cosmic Jackpot, his latest work, The Eerie Silence, asserts that we need to break from the old "radio message for mankind" concept and enlarge our search for signs of alien civilizations. Presented as part of Seattle Science Lectures, with Pacific Science Center and University Book Store. Series sponsored by Microsoft.
