How are we searching for aliens? Offworld, Episode 1: Contact (1997) with Dr. Jill Tarter

Опубликовано 8 января 2018, 15:00

Welcome to Offworld, a new show we're making that explores the fun places where space and pop culture intersect! In each episode, we'll examine a science fiction story and discuss how it holds up under some scientific scrutiny. For our inaugural episode, we talk about the 1997 film Contact with special guest Dr. Jill Tarter, whose work at SETI was the inspiration for the main character of the book and film.
