    Main subject: The Milky Way contains about 300 billion stars, each of them with its own planetary system. With this knowledge in mind, one day during a lunch break in Los Alamos, in the middle of a happy conversation between physicists on extraterrestrial life, Enrico Fermi suddenly asked: "But if they exist, where are they?" They exist - statistically they have had every chance to develop a civilization and also reveal themselves. Their numbers are not lacking, so, where are they? For at least a century, we humans have been emitting our radio signals into space, which have now reached a million-billion-mile radius, bringing with them the evidence of our existence to hundreds of stars by now. Nobody has answered us yet. Are we really alone in the universe? Are we really so unique? This is perhaps the biggest question we have ever asked ourselves. Are there aliens? And how are they made? What thoughts do they have? What would happen if we met them? What do we really know about life in the universe? What are the testimonies and evidence of scholars and people who have experienced rst-person revelatory experiences? The presence of extraterrestrial intelligence that periodically visits our planet is now scientically proven. In the last sixty years, at least 150,000 events have been documented for which any hypothesis of "conventional" explanation has not proved to be valid. Yet, many still do not believe in the extraterrestrial theory, in part because the political and military authorities continue to eld a strategy of discre- dit. The ten episodes of the series, lasting 48 minutes each, deal with the human-alien relationship in its various facets - from sightings to meetings, from more or less secret contacts, to great conspiracy theories.
