Astrophysicist and science communicator Neil deGrasse Tyson spills on his obsession with aliens and the best and worst Hollywood depictions of them.

Science fiction has long speculated about the possibility of first contact with an alien species from a distant world and how we might be able to communicate with them. But what if we simply don’t have enough common ground for that to even be possible?

Watch Steven Spielberg's return to sci-fi with "Disclosure Day." It''s also time to catch up with 2026's best movies so far. (Get psyched!)

Disclosure Day explores questions of truth and trust as government document drops and AI reshape how Americans think about the unexplained.

But with the release of his new sci-fi film “Disclosure Day” (read my review here ), I thought it would be fun to offer a ranked list of just Spielberg’s sci-fi movies. I’m going to be liberal with my definition of sci-fi.
