Members of the SETI Post Detection Hub are presenting talks and posters this week at #AbSciCon2026!
Whether you’re attending the conference or following from afar, what questions about life beyond Earth interest you most?

For me, it's Arrival (2016)! It challenges the typical "alien invasion" trope by making contact feel less like a battle and more like a communication problem. I also really love how it connects language to time!
How about you?
How about you?
🎭 Stories shape how we imagine contact, long before any real signal.
They influence what we expect, fear, and hope, and can help us explore futures and question simple narratives about contact outcomes.
💬 Which contact story influenced you most, and why?

🆕 The discovery of new complex organic molecules at Saturn's #Enceladus enhances the likelihood that the moon is habitable 🪐
On Earth, these molecules are involved in chemical reaction chains that lead to the more complex molecules essential for life.

Had such a great 4 days at the PSETI-2025 Symposium!
I really enjoyed learning alongside such an inspiring group of people and running my 2-hour workshop on "What is Intelligence?" 💡

Avi Loeb is still insisting 3I/ATLAS might have a large nucleus, and suggests that the aliens are *testing* humanity to see who is intelligent enough to notice that their comet-like spacecraft is actually technological.

One of the best workshops I’ve ever attended!
Just back from an incredibly interesting and enjoyable weekend at St Andrews (Scotland), where we held our first Workshop for the SETI Post Detection Hub, at the University. Not one PowerPoint slide in evidence and all the better for it - we actually interacted and debated topics. More to come ..

Episode 7 of The Blind Spot Podcast. @evanthompson.bsky.social and I do a deep dive into why science needs to rethink its approach to life.
And we also talk about Evan’s epic adolescence (seriously, it was epic).
