I think that the holidays feel like frozen noses. I love walking with the dog for long periods of time.

Hopefully it's snowing and you've got to wrap up warm. So I think a frozen nose is a sweaty armpit

because your wrapped up so warm but then you're climbing hamps and heath and you get to the top

and you're like, and then you can see the breath but then your nose is still freezing to touch.

Hi everybody and welcome to a Greek Disagree from Intelligent Squared. I'm John Donvan.

And for the debate we're about to have, we are going to look up.

We're going to look up and ponder the possibility that up above us, up and out, beyond the clouds and the moon and the sun and our solar system,

that there is other life out there and that it is intelligent life.

And what we're going to debate is whether we should be investing energy and money and time in trying to discover that life.

Which in fact is something that's already happening. The search is on.

And in the course of this program we hope to learn the odds that there are extraterrestrials with intelligence out there.

And we hope to learn the pros and the cons of looking for them and the pros and cons of actually finding them.

Here's how we are framing the question quite simply. Should we search for life in space?

We are going to hear two answers to that question. A yes and a no courtesy of two experts.

Jill Cornell Tarder is an astronomer best known for her work on the search for extraterrestrial intelligence and a co-founder and former director of the Center for SETI Research.

Paul M. Sutter is an astrophysicist at the Flatiron Institute.

Jill and Paul thanks so much for joining us on A Greek Disagree.

Well, thanks so much for having us and for this topic.

And I'm very much looking forward to this discussion.

Okay, so Jill Tarder, you go first on the question. Should we search for life in space or UAS or UNO?

Absolutely. Yes.
