The hunt for planets circling other stars

on Skeptically Speaking, recording live today.

We look at the cutting edge science and old-fashioned wonder of the hunt for planets circling other stars. We'll talk to Ray Jayawardhana, Canada Research Chair in Observational Astrophysics at the University of Toronto, and author of Strange New Worlds: The Search for Alien Planets and Life beyond Our Solar System. And we're joined by Seth Shostak, Senior Astronomer at the SETI Institute, to discuss the current progress, and the uncertain future, of the search for extraterrestrial intelligence.

This show records live on Sunday, May 15 at 6 pm MT. The podcast will be available to download at 9 pm MT on Friday, May 20.
