SUMMARY:Search For Extraterrestrial Intelligence and Why It Will Fail -- Ben Zuckerman, Research Professor and Emeritus
DESCRIPTION:Special Colloquium. In recent years astronomers have discovered that essentially all stars are orbited by planets, thus raising the hopes of many persons that life and even technological life is common in our Milky Way galaxy and will soon be found.  Notwithstanding the existence of so many planets, we present reasons why technological life is a very rare phenomenon and thus will be very difficult to discover.
