Ep. 5 - Fermi Paradox

Episode 5
1h 16m | Jul 6, 2019

Where are they!?  The aliens, that is.  So far we haven't heard a peep, well at least the scientific community and Robin and Arjuna haven't.  In this episode we explore the manifold possibilities of life of other planets, the difficulties that face any life form with interstellar ambitions, and the many, many pitfalls that might prevent them from growing noggins big enough to even consider the possibility in the first place.  Will we undermine our survival before we can reach the stars?  Will aliens find us first?  Are we worthy of reaching the rank of star-faring civilization?  Join Arjuna and Robin in their discussion to get to the bottom of it all.
