From ‘Star Trek’ to ‘Arrival’: How pop culture helps us imagine extraterrestrial life

View descriptionShare

We come to the end of our week of special coverage with a show about how we imagine extraterrestrial life.

What do you picture when you picture extraterrestrial life? Is it like E.T.? Or little green men? Or an alien from Star Trek?

This hour is all about how we imagine extraterrestrial life and how those visions are shaped by pop culture.
