The Search for Life on Other Worlds - AstroFest 2020 - Robert Naeye, Freelance Science Journalist

Support the channel: streamlabs.com/kopernikobserv...
Freelance science journalist and former editor in chief of Sky & Telescope Robert Naeye will explore different roads for detecting life beyond Earth:
1. Launching robotic spacecraft to discover life on other worlds in our solar system.
2. Deploying large telescopes to detect the chemical signatures of life in the atmospheres of planets orbiting other stars.
3. Using various techniques to pick up signals from advanced civilizations or to find evidence of their technological activities.
Robert’s talk will be loosely based on a cover story he wrote for the September 2020 issue of Astronomy magazine. His talk will be nontechnical and intended for a general audience.
