The University of Glamorgan has launched a degree course on the hunt for alien life, offering students the opportunity to study an undergraduate course in astrobiology - the search for life beyond Earth.
New recruits signed up to the course, held at the University of Glamorgan in south Wales, this week.
The topic is a "major driving force" behind current space programmes, such as the recent excitement over the possibility of finding organic life on Saturn's moon, Titan, the university said.
The Centre for Astronomy and Science Education is running the course - and modules will include exploring the sky, vertebrate zoology, science and the media and life in the universe.
