Alien Worlds and the Fate of the Earth
Book • 2018
In 'Light of the Stars', Adam Frank traces the question of alien life from ancient Greeks to modern thinkers.

The book delves into the history of Earth's climate, the study of other planets like Venus and Mars, and the search for exoplanets and technosignatures of other civilizations.

The book provides a detailed history of climate change, both on Earth and other planets, and discusses the future of exoplanet research and its implications for human civilization.
