What if aliens are deliberately hiding from us because making contact means certain death? From the chilling Dark Forest Theory to NASA insiders claiming ETs walk among us, discover why we haven't found aliens yet—and the disturbing possibility that they're already here, watching us through microscopic probes we can't even detect.

IN THIS EPISODE: We spend plenty of time watching the stars and listening to radio signals. We hope we can finally find the evidence we are not alone in the Universe. We eagerly await our first official contact with extraterrestrials, but nothing ever happens. Sometimes we learn an odd signal has been picked up in space and we get our hopes up again, only to be told later it was nothing more than a neutron star with a very large magnetic field, throwing off the bursts, or something similar. So, where are the aliens we want to hear from and possibly meet? If we assume that we are not the only intelligent species in the universe, then they must be out there. There are many theories, but one stands out as particularly disturbing.
