Klokhuis

Submitter: Joeri van Leeuwen
Description: Some of you will have grown up with Het Klokhuis, but for those who don't know it, "The Apple Core" is the biggest educational show on Dutch national TV. It's aimed at kids and young adults, from 9 to 15 yrs, although parents watch it too of course. It's also a regular part of many school and after-school programs. Almost all Dutch kids see or follow it.

A few days ago, we recorded a new show, about extraterrestrial life. Here, a number of scientists and artists document and interpret the story of life; how it formed on Earth, and what may be out there in the Solar System or the Milky Way.

  • At LOFAR (pictured) we describe how radio telescopes can find passive radio from exoplanet Northern Lights.

  • At WSRT we explain that radio telescopes search for active radio from intelligent life.

    The episode will be aired in the last quarter of 2022.
