Finding Life Beyond Earth

Alternative title
Finding Life Beyond Earth: Moons and Beyond
Synopsis
Do other life forms exist outside of our atmosphere? Modern telescopes and unmanned space missions have revealed a wide range of dynamic environments: atmospheres thick with organic molecules, active volcanoes and vast saltwater oceans. This ongoing revolution is forcing scientists to expand their ideas about what kinds of worlds could support life. This programme shows the sights and sounds of alien worlds, while top astrobiologists explain how these places are changing the way we think about the potential for life in our solar system.
