Are there other unknown civilisations or we will be transformed into new beings by the environment and technology?
Read more from the leading theoretical physicist and futurist Dr Michio Kaku as he explores the cutting edge science of today, tomorrow, and beyond at Michio Kaku' theories on life, space and time.
