Big Ideas in Bite Sizes
Season 1
by Dr Morgan Saletta
In this second episode, we continue exploring the Big Question, "Is there anybody out there?", starting with Giordano Bruno and the idea of an infinite universe and ending up with the Drake Equation, the Fermi Paradox, and Terry Bisson's biting short story, "They're made out of meat". That story has been adapted as a short film, which you can find here: https://youtu.be/T6JFTmQCFHg
In this episode of Big Philosophy in Bite Sizes, I'm introducing the big question, 'Is their anybody out there' that we'll be exploring from a number of different angles in the coming few episodes.
