Is Anyone Out There?

A research showcase on the search for life beyond Earth, and on how a question that large could ever be settled

A research showcase from the School of Settled Matters presents the University's work around the search for life beyond Earth in three strands: reading silence and absence as evidence, the history of observatory instruments and the people who keep them, and the standards by which a question of that size could be judged settled. It quotes three researchers, profiles three, and features eight published studies from four Schools, cited by title and DOI.
