For decades some have suspected that there might be others out there, intelligent beings capable of communicating with us, even visiting our world. It might sound like science fiction, but today scientists from across the globe are scouring the universe for signals from extraterrestrials. Horizon obtained exclusive access to film researchers at the Green Bank Telescope searching for radio signals from Tabby's Star, a star so mysterious that some scientists believe it might be surrounded by a Dyson Sphere, a vast energy collector built by advanced aliens.

In this final journey through our celestial neighborhood, Professor Brian Cox ventures beyond the familiar into the utterly bizarre. He uncovers a dwarf planet shaped like an egg that defies scientific logic, a tiny moon resembling a flying saucer, and a chilling ocean world locked in orbit around Jupiter. These strange and haunting places challenge everything we thought we knew about the solar system—making this the most mind-bending chapter of the series.

Discoveries of new planets have revealed countless worlds much stranger than Earth. Some of these strange worlds don’t have stars; others are made out of diamonds. Will we ever find a planet like Earth, or are these distant worlds stranger than fiction?
