YouTube video

In this week’s episode of Space Minds David Ariosto sits down Nathalie Cabrol, Director of the Carl Sagan Center at the SETI Institute who explains why the Red Planet may hold answers about extraterrestrial life as well as our own origins.

Our conversation explores the potential for life on Mars, the implications of exoplanet discoveries, and how AI is transforming our understanding of habitability. She challenges our assumptions about intelligence, consciousness, and the very nature of life itself—both here on Earth and beyond. A thought-provoking conversation that expands your view of the universe—and our place within it.

And in our second segment, Space Takes, our hosts discuss space based tools used for war and the attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities. They then discuss Europe’s launch capability and their efforts to be less reliant on SpaceX.

And don’t miss our co-hosts’ Space Take on important stories.
