About the exhibition

Life Beyond Earth? captivates visitors with a history of the scientific search for extraterrestrial life from the 16th century to today. It explores the history of listening for interstellar communications, searching for exoplanets and Earth 2.0, and probing our solar system for alien life. It examines the modern UFO phenomena, from the 1947 crash in Roswell to recent government investigations of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP). Lastly, based on our scientific research here on Earth, it imagines the strange life that could exist on other planets.

At its core, the exhibition aims to spark curiosity and explore the relentless scientific pursuit of finding answers to the challenges of detecting extraterrestrial life.
