And in Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), when the spaceship lands, humans and aliens communicate by making music with computers,” Lipton points out. Spielberg listens and smiles, between surprised and moved: “I would like to say I wanted it to be a metaphor for my parents' relationship, but I hadn't realized it until now”.

The vast Universe remains a great mystery to humanity. Is there life outside of Earth? What would aliens be like or how would we communicate with them?

To explain the knowledge we have so far about aliens and shed some light on scientific research, CosmoCaixa is launching the exhibition Extraterrestrials. Is there life outside of Earth?, this Tuesday, February 25.
