Doug Vakoch is a former SETI member who founded METI International in 2015, an organization trying to craft and send targeted interstellar messages to extraterrestrials.

In the third episode of Exo, Motherboard goes to San Francisco to meet with Doug, and to hear from those who think his project is dangerous.
