Every few months I like to run some fun ideas I see on YouTube by a couple of renowned scientists who then puzzle over me like a talking chimpanzee. This week I talk with author and astrophysicist Mario Livio and Nobel Prize-winning biologist Jack Szostak about their book Is Earth Exceptional: The Quest for Cosmic Life. We discuss the possibility of life in the universe and what that might look like. We also discuss the possibility that 3i Atlas is a nickel-plated spaceship, if intelligent life on Mars was possible, and whether we're equipped to perceive life within our limited understanding of dimensional reality—and do dolphins communicate through a shared consciousness? Spoiler alert: the answers will not surprise you.
