Episode Synopsis "Stars Above: Aliens!"

Welcome back to Stars Above! After an almost 2 month hiatus we are back with a series of interviews with local astronomers to help us tide through the drought of astronomy activities in Singapore's Phase 2 heightened alert. First up will be an interview with Sharadh Rajaraman: Former General Secretary of NUS Astronomical Society, Astrophotographer, Sci Fi enthusiast and Lifelong Astronomy nut! We talk about how Sharadh's passion for Astronomy arose from a simple exhibit and about one of his favourite topics, Aliens and Exobiology. Learn about what is necessary for life to form, what types of planets can support this life and whether we are likely to find intelligent alien life out there.
