We’re on the hunt for life outside our own planet.
“Are we alone in the universe?” is one of the fundamental questions in science. New technology like planetary robots and massive space-based telescopes are getting us closer and closer to finally having an answer.

And we’ll revisit a conversation from August 16, 2022 with University of Florida astrobiologist Amy Williams about one Martian rover’s decade on Mars and how Curiosity is helping us answer the ultimate question.
