Episode Description

Could the reason we haven't heard from an extraterrestrial civilization is that there's a limit to how long a civilization can broadcast? This is the logic behind the Brief Window Hypothesis.

If civilizations have a finite lifespan (L), then there's a finite window of opportunity to hear from them. Miss it, and the opportunity is lost forever.
