interstellar messages" SETI is a scientific effort seeking to
determine if there is intelligent life outside Earth. We were at
Aricebo Radio Observatory in March 2003 when scientists listened
to the most promising transmissions from UC Berkeley’s SETI@home
search. Join the Exploratorium’s Ron Hipschman and special guest
Dan Werthimer, chief scientist and principal investigator for
the SETI Institute’s efforts, including Arecibo Observatory’s
search of artificial radio signals coming from other stars. How
can a mathematical equation frame the question of life in the
universe? We’ll talk with Frank Drake, one of the founders of
the SETI Institute, about his famous equation and how it frames
the search for signs of intelligent life in the universe.
