Sarah Scoles: THEY ARE ALREADY HERE

63 min • 23 februari 2020

On episode 149 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, Ryan is joined by science writer, Sarah Scoles, to discuss her upcoming book, They Are Already Here: UFO Culture and Why We See Saucers.

The book is an anthropological look at the UFO community, told through first-person experiences with researchers in their element as they pursue what they see as a solvable mystery―both terrestrial and cosmic. In the book, and in this conversation, we meet the bigwigs, the scrappy upstarts, the field investigators, the rational people, and the unhinged kooks of this sprawling community. How do they interact with each other? How do they interact with “anomalous phenomena”? And how do they reflect the politics and culture of the larger world around them?

Guest Bio: Sarah Scoles is a science writer whose work has appeared in The Atlantic, Slate, Smithsonian, The Washington Post, Scientific American, Popular Science, Discover, New Scientist, Aeon, and Wired. A former editor at Astronomy Magazine, Scoles worked at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory, the location of the first-ever SETI project. She is also the author of Making Contact: Jill Tarter and the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence
