520    "More than half of American adults and more than seventy-
       five percent of young Americans believe in intelligent 
       extraterrestrial life. This level of belief rivals that of
       belief in God. In American Cosmic, D.W. Pasulka examines 
       the mechanisms that foster a thriving belief in 
       extraterrestrial life. Her work takes her from Silicon 
       Valley to the Vatican Secret Archive and reveals how media
       has supplanted religion as a cultural authority that 
       offers believers answers about non-human intelligent life"
