I've been waiting for registration for this event to open for yonks, and it has today ... (nothing to do with the parallel "aliens" thread )
Royal Astronomical Society public lecture by Martin Rees, the UK's Astronomer Royal
Space exploration and the search for extraterrestrial life -- with humans and with robots
As robots get more capable, the practical case for human spaceflight gets weaker. So will robots eventually spread through the Solar System and beyond? And will they find life out there already?
Tuesday, 17 May 2022 13:00 – 14:00, online (usually Zoom) ... and free.

Re: Martin Rees @ RAS on Space exploration and the search for extraterrestrial life
Very interesting lecture, and despite what I said previously in another thread about RAS public lectures, they are actually recorded and available -- the recordings just aren't linked to from the RAS website!
This one is at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5Pzq1Jz1z4.
Also available online is last month's lecture, which I'd mentioned in the other thread:
How to build a habitable planet
We’ve discovered many planets orbiting other stars with sizes similar to our own Earth. But size alone does not birth a home world. How did the Earth become habitable, and what does this mean for finding another planet capable of hosting life?
