The status of searches for Martians on the 75th anniversary of "The War of the Worlds”
Update: 2013-10-30
Description
Exactly 75 years ago, on Oct. 30, 1938, Orson Welles' radio play of "The War of the Worlds" convinced many Americans that we were being invaded by Mars. Now, we have spacecraft in orbit around Mars and on its surface, still looking for evidence of life on the Red Planet. We will discuss the progress of scientists' searches for life on Mars and how that has influenced writers of fiction. For those who wish to stay, we will then replay the Orson Welles "War of the Worlds."
