Really interesting, informative and thorough.

Well written, well narrated and immensely thought provoking. Are we alone? The series quotes Arthur C. Clarke (something to the effect) in answer to ETs, there are only two choices. Either we are alone or not alone, either one is terrifying.

human hubris

we think too highly of our own intelligence.. we are very limited in our own knowledge.. we can only know what we have seen or experienced... totally limiting...

Hey why would we think that we are the only life?

I really enjoyed listening to the whole series! I really hope that Audible brings more of these type of Audible Only series!

Would also love to see more information on the Exoplanets that we have found. CNN has a new Film called the Hunt for Planet B maybe we could get the Audible version of this topic?

Fingers crossed!!
