SYNOPSIS

Are we on the brink of discovering the first ever evidence that aliens exist? Join astronomer Professor Alan Duffy on his search to answer this question, as he speaks to a new generation of alien hunters embarking on the greatest hunt for extraterrestrials that’s ever been undertaken. Thanks to a recent cash injection of $100 million, new technology and initiatives are being developed which could lead to the discovery of extraterrestrial life in the next few years, putting us within close reach of being able to finally answer the age-old question: is there other intelligent life out there, or are we alone?

WHAT WE DID

Working with Audible and journalist Graham Phillips, the Audiocraft team helped craft an accessible narrative around the mind-bending and complex scientific questions about extraterrestrial life.

Sound Engineer Adam Connelly created layered sound design and original composition rich with audio textures of radio signals and the vast echoes of space to build an evocative and immersive listening experience.
