Ritual is one of the oldest, and certainly most enigmatic, threads in the history of human culture.

Before we ever learned to farm, we were gathering in giant stone temples to perform elaborate rites and ceremonies. Dimitris Xygalatas leads us on an enlightening tour through this shadowy realm of human behavior.

We've all asked ourselves the question. It's impossible to look up at the stars and NOT think about it: Are we alone in the universe? Books, movies, and television shows proliferate that attempt to answer this question and explore it. In Out There, Space.com senior writer Dr. Michael Wall treats that question as merely the beginning, touching off a wild ride of exploration into the final frontier. He considers, for instance, the myriad of questions that would arise once we do discover life beyond Earth (an eventuality which, top NASA officials told Wall, is only drawing closer).

Armed with equal parts curiosity, sarcasm, and a suspicious amount of caffeine, the author drags readers on a whirlwind safari through human development, evolution, ...

They will try to change the reports, the statements, and the facts. They will try to evade taking responsibility. But everyone knows that I was in fact murdered.
