SUMMARY:Neighboring Technological Civilizations
DESCRIPTION:Where is the nearest extraterrestrial civilization? Dr. Dan 
 Watson\, professor of physics and astronomy at the University of Rochester 
 and a senior scientist at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics\, explains 
 where the nearest neighboring civilization capable of communication with 
 Earth exists. We know the precise location of all the stars within 
 thousands of light years of the Solar system. We also know that all the 
 stars have planets\, and what fraction of them have planets which can 
 support life as we know it. So how far away is our nearest neighbor 
 civilization? What is the best way to reach its inhabitants? Is it a good 
 idea to try and reach them? We have good answers to all these questions 
 now\, and the results may surprise you. Registration recommended.
