Description: Visit our sponsor, Private Internet Access to get digital privacy for $2.08/month: privateinternetaccess.com/CoolWorlds The search for alien intelligence is usually a framed as a search for life around other stars. But some have suggested that we should look within the Solar System instead - seeking so-called "Lurkers", alien probes sent here to monitor us. Today we explore this interesting idea, the motivations behind it and where we might actually try surveying.
