This episode of Aska Spaceman is brought to you by my friends at BetterHelp. Better Help provides

easy, convenient, affordable access to online counseling and therapy. And therapy has been an

important part of my life experience is something I'm absolutely not ashamed to talk about. I wish more people

use to therapists and counselors to take better care of their own mental health, just like

they take care of their physical health. I know a lot of you tune into this show for astrotherapy

as a word, but maybe if you're having a really tough time,

you should talk to an actual professional. And so I encourage you to go to better help. They are

convenient and professional. It's real therapy and counseling. And it is affordable. And you connect

online. You don't have to wait in a waiting room or any of that. You just talk to

someone who cares and knows what they're talking about. Listen, as a listener, you'll get 10% off

your first month by visiting BetterHelp at BetterHelp.com slash spaceman. And I want you to join

over one million people who have taken charge of their mental

health. Again, that's BetterHelp, H-E-L-P-E-L-P-com slash Spaceman.

Have you heard my steadyETI joke yet?

Well, if you already have or you are not up for listening to probably the worst joke ever,

just go ahead and skip forward 30 seconds, a minute, five minutes.

I don't know how long this is going to take.

Anyway, SETI, the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, S-E-T-I.

Do you know why they targeted intelligence rather than just any kind of life?

Like, why isn't it the search for extraterrestrial life instead of the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. Well, the truth is,

if they can't find intelligent life, they're just going to have to settle. S-E-T-L, search for

extraterrestrial life.
