Robin Hanson on UFOs<\/b><\/font><\/big><\/center>

\nIs Earth being monitored by (UFOs?) an advanced civilization one million years ahead of us? And does this alien civilization actually share an ancient past with humanity? Economist Robin Hanson explores a provocative theory suggesting that highly evolved extraterrestrials may be subtly observing us\u2014either as caretakers or as part of a long-running experiment. From there, the conversation delves into the intricacies of academic funding and the peer review process.<\/p>\n
