Discover the answers to these questions and many more at the Supervillain Academy: the magnificently morbid school for young villains in training. Read more about how the search for extraterrestrial life and the search for planets are linked, the exoplanets and extremophiles that can be found all over the galaxy, and the weird and wonderful ways scientists think we (might) be able to travel around space.
