This week University of Warwick researcher Professor Ian Stewart travels to London's Science Museum's new Aliens exhibition and uses his visit to explain how horrendously unscientific many of film and television's depictions of aliens are, and to outline the latest real scientific thinking on the possibility of life on other planets and what it could look like.
