Since time immemorial, mankind has looked to the stars and wondered, “Are we alone?” As we’ve tried to tell you again and again and again: no, no we are not.

Now, with NASA funding a mission to Europa to search for signs of life, it seems like we are closer than ever to finding out whether or not there is intelligent life out there. But who has time to wait until we launch a rocket all the way to Jupiter? SETI (the Search for Extraterrestrial Life) certainly doesn’t; instead, they plan on taking action. What kind of action, you ask? Join our own alien expert Jessica Chobot as she breaks it all down on today’s Nerdist News.

Do you think we’ll find life on Mars? Or elsewhere? Let us know in the comments below! And once, you’ve done that be sure to check out a brand new episode of Nerdist Play. Otherwise, we’ll tell our new alien overlords you said mean things about them. And they won’t like that.
