Are we alone in the universe? If not, where is everybody? An engaging exploration of one of the most important unsolved problems in science.Everything we know about how planets form and how life arises suggests that human civilization on Earth should not be unique. We ought to see abundant evidence of extraterrestrial activity—but we don't. Where is everybody? In this volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series, science and technology writer Wade Roush examines one of the great unsolved problems in science: is there life, intelligent or otherwise, on other planets? This paradox (they're bound to be out there; but where are they?), first formulated by the famed physicist Enrico Fermi, has fueled decades of debate, speculation, and, lately, some actual science. Roush lays out the problem in its historical and modern-day context and summarizes the latest thinking among astronomers and astrobiologists. He describes the long history of speculation about aliens (we've been debating the idea for thousands of years); the emergence of SETI (the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) as a scientific discipline in the 1960s, and scientists' use of radio and optical techniques to scan for signals; and developments in astrobiology (the study of how life might arise in non-Earth like environments) and exoplanet research (the discovery of planets outside our solar system). Finally, he discusses possible solutions to the Fermi Paradox and suggests way to refocus SETI work that might increase the chances of resolving the paradox—and finding extraterrestrials.

UFOs do exist. They are found in Renaissance art, on ancient coins, etched on cave walls—and even reported in the Bible. Even more surprising is where they are documented most: in times of armed conflict....   Accounts of hovering objects, when war is imminent, reach as far back as 312 A.D. when seen by Roman Emperor Constantine I as he led his troops to battle. They supposedly aided George Washington in winning the American Revolution. UFOs were also reported flying over Normandy on D-Day, and were dubbed “foo fighters” by World War II pilots. In Vietnam, an Air Force commander said they were “plagued” by UFOs. Even today, the reports continue to pour in, as noiseless objects are seen darting over the battlegrounds of the Middle East.   These sightings, as inconceivable as they may seem, are made by high ranking officials, soldiers and news reporters. Why do these reports spike so drastically during wartime? Could it be mistaken aircraft? Or is someone, or something, looking in on us.... Includes incredible photographs of UFOs
