The topics in this 11 minute plus segment focused on the Kepler Space Telescope (KST) and the search for life supporting planets as an enhancement to SETI. Dr. Shostak explained several of the recent KST discoveries in the context of SETI and answered many related SETI questions posed by John and me. For example, I asked Seth if KST was changing the odds and the number of potential targets per the Drake Equation. Don't miss this segment which helps us all understand the added value of KST and SETI. Please post your comments/questions on The Space Show blog for everyone to see and read. You can learn more about Seti at www.seti.org.
