Considering famous UFO sightings as well as the coordinated efforts to listen for alien communications since the 1980s, this introduction to the search for extra-terrestrial life explains how our increasing knowledge about the solar system and theories of how and where intelligent life might evolve is improving our chances of contact.

Ben Miller is, like you, a mutant ape living through an Ice Age on a ball of molten iron, orbiting a supermassive black hole. He is also an actor, comedian and approximately one half of Armstrong & Miller. He's presented a BBC Horizon documentary on temperature and a Radio 4 series about the history of particle physics, and wrote a regular science column in The Times. He is slowly coming to terms with the idea that he may never be an astronaut. @ActualBenMiller
An eclectic and entertaining story, weaving together space exploration, the evolution of life on Earth, the Drake Equation and Egyptian hieroglyphs. That's non-trivial, as we say in physics, but Ben Miller manages it! * BRIAN COX * A witty and informative romp through our search for little green men that says as much about human ingenuity as it does about the aliens we seek * DARA O BRIAIN *
