Dr Maggie Aderin-Pocock said we'd find evidence of alien life by the end of 2024 .

But we probably won’t get confirmation of it in the next three months .

I’m fascinated by things that seem intangible in the moment, and I like to think of magic as a science that we don't understand yet.

Scientists need to be able to accept being wrong, which can be a human failing.
