Event Details

Adventure begins at your library!  Everywhere on Earth that we look, even in the most extreme environments, we find life.  Join the Colorado Springs Astronomical Society for a talk that explores how we're using our understanding of life on Earth to help us in our search for life on other worlds.  We'll also discuss the Drake Equation and Fermi's Paradox and how they factor into the possibility of life out there.  This program is being offered as part of the 2024 Winter Adult Reading Program.
