Title: Are we alone? Interstellar Intelligence and Interstellar Travel
Abstract: We live on a small planet orbiting an ordinary star, in a galaxy of hundreds of billions of stars, among hundreds of billions of galaxies. Given these vast numbers, it is natural to ask whether life — and perhaps intelligent life — exists elsewhere. In this talk, I will discuss our efforts to search for extraterrestrial intelligent life and the prospects for interstellar travel.
