Alien Earths…Alien Dinosaurs. Astrophysicist Lisa Kaltenegger, as the founding director of Cornell University's Carl Sagan Institute, leads a team of scientists in a quest to discover life on distant exoplanets using a specialized toolkit informed by Earth's own biosphere and history. In "Alien Earths," she guides us through an eye-opening exploration of unusual exoplanets, such as those with lava oceans, lone wanderers, and multi-sun systems, showcasing the best contenders for alien life. With the help of the James Webb Space Telescope, Kaltenegger demonstrates how we can detect life on other worlds, potentially even those observing us. This new era of exploration raises the question: what if we're not alone in the cosmos? https://www.amazon.com/Alien-Earths-Science-Planet-Hunting-ebook/dp/B0C39XG4XS YouTube Membership: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCz3qvETKooktNgCvvheuQDw/join Podcast: https://anchor.fm/john-michael-godier/subscribe Apple: https://apple.co/3CS7rjT More JMG https://www.youtube.com/c/JohnMichaelGodier Want to support the channel?
