Episode notes

The odds of finding life pre-existing in the solar system are exquisitely low. There's eight hurdles that life elsewhere in the universe had to get to. That could be a dolphin swimming through a methane pond on Titan, which we don't see. But now to get to iPhones and technological life, I just think the odds are incredibly low.

In this episode, Peter and Brian discuss asteroids, multiverses, and how AI will impact the universe.
