How about publishing the computing output, in a suitable form, with some analysis and/or comments from experienced astronomers/SETI scientists? I believe this could prove be a useful way to educate the participants about the concept, the SETI/astronomical science and more importantly the outcome of what we are doing. This could bring a lot more motivation! |

Future Plans Thanks a lot for your response :) I've seen the page you referred to. But I was not talking about the system of workunits and credits earned, instead I was pointing towards the "findings" of the computations i.e. types of signals picked up, signals suspected to be generated by an extra-terrestrial intelligence and things like that, the scientific outcome I meant :) |

Future Plans This is on the "to do" list but money and more immediate "issues" keep cropping up. Like the server Kryten that has decided it no longer wants to be a part of the computing world! It seems to crash hourly and is being nursed along as the replacement is being readied. Details of the replacement are in this http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=36109 and other threads |
