Dr Soshstak is the Senior Astronomer at the SETI institute and author of 'Confessions of an Alien Hunter: A Scientist's Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence.' Seth claims to have developed an interest in extraterrestrial life at the tender age of ten, when he first picked up a book about the Solar System. This innocent beginning eventually led to a degree in radio astronomy, and now, as Senior Astronomer, Seth is an enthusiastic participant in the Institute’s SETI observing programs. In this episode, we discuss the possibility of finding intelligent life by 2036, the Wow! signal we received that was thought to have been sent by extraterrestrials, the risk-reward balancing act of trying to make contact with intelligent extraterrestrials and the surprising lack of funding for this kind of exploration. Enjoy!
