The Drake Equation and Grey Aliens
Tuesday Sep 19, 2023
Tuesday Sep 19, 2023
Hey everyone, a YouTube viewer requested that I do an episode on aliens; specifically so called "Greys". Initially this episode wasn't intended to be a deep dive, but it ended up being well over an hour long. Before covering the history of the Grey alien concept, I take a look at the famous Drake equation and discuss the likely hood that there may be alien life (or even civilizations) elsewhere in the universe.
