Summary:
In this episode we explore the ingredients needed for an intelligent civilisation to evolve in the universe - the need for a benign star, for a habitable planet, for life to spontaneously arise on such a planet and the time required for intelligent life to evolve and build a civilisation. We weigh the evidence and arrive at a provocative answer to the puzzle of our apparent solitude.
