Susan Schneider is an associate Professor in the Department of Philosophy Cognitive Science Program at the University of Connecticut. “Alien Minds” has been presented at NASA and the 2016 Idea
Festival in Kentucky and was published in The Impact of Discovering Life Beyond Earth. It is her response to the question: “How would intelligent aliens think? Would they have conscious
experiences? Would it feel a certain way to be an alien?” “I actually think the first discovery of life on other planets will probably involve microbial life; I am concentrating on intelligent
life in my work on this topic though. I only claim that the most advanced civilizations will likely be post biological.” Schneider’s theory is based on three components or “observations.” In her
“short window observation,” she presents the idea that a civilization or species that can conquer long-distance space travel is already very close to moving from biological to
artificially-intelligent beings. An example of this “short window” is the relatively brief 120 years it took humans to go from the first radio signals to cell phones.
