Is There Anyone Out There?: St. Louis Astronomical Society September 2026 Meeting

The topic of the search for intelligent life elsewhere in the universe has moved from the pages of science fiction to the telescopes of modern astronomy. Join this interactive presentation to imagine together the likelihood that there are other intelligent, communicating species in our galaxy. Share the latest discoveries, make predictions about our celestial neighbors, and discuss the chances that we'll make contact with alien civilizations.
