Episode 628: Q&A 117: Why Am I So Negative About Aliens? And More... Featuring Dr. Jason Wright
In this week's questions show, I explain why I've got such a skeptical view about the search for aliens if there might be multiple great filters, and why NASA doesn't just go back and use Apollo hardware to return to the Moon?

00:40 Are there multiple Great Filters?
02:35 Could we refuel ships in space to land on Mars
06:01 Could we put a light on the Moon to prove what we landed there?
08:18 Will James Webb Launch?
09:52 What will it take to confirm signs of life?
12:30 How long until cosmic rays die down?
16:03 Why don't we just use Apollo hardware to go back to the Moon?
19:46 Why am I so negative?
22:29 Good sources of journals?
