Can we make it to the stars? Are aliens here? Quirky true history with Helen Keen and Peter Serafinowicz. From March 2011.

Funny, off-beat but true account of the history of space flight.

* Will humanity ever make it to the stars?

* Time travel, parallel universes and faster than light travel.

* Have aliens ever made it here? If so, were they tempted to use their vastly superior intelligence to really clean up in pub quizzes?
