What i´m asking is if after all this millions of hours of processing was there any kind of suspect signal pattern detected ? | |

What i´m asking is if after all this millions of hours of processing was there any kind of suspect signal pattern detected ? Not that we know of. Signals from the same spot on different nights are comparred to see if they repeat. This is a server side process, and as far as we know it has not found any repeateble hits. ____________ BOINC WIKI | |

And what about any particular/relevant astronomical event discovered by seti@home? | |

And what about any particular/relevant astronomical event discovered by seti@home? Again, not to the best of our knowledge. AstroPulse is looking for astronomic explosions, and S@H is looking for Extra Teresterial Intelligence. Neither has found anything yet. ____________ BOINC WIKI | |

Im just wandering is there an easy to understand explanation for triplets, guassians, pulses and spikes? | |

Im just wandering is there an easy to understand explanation for triplets, guassians, pulses and spikes? If the signal is too strong, it is likely to be terresterial in origin. Which is why the signals have to be confirmed by sognals from the same point in space on other nights. ____________ BOINC WIKI | |

It there anything that could be done to disable seti@home? Just to remove the seti@home program for a particular time but has the option of starting the program again after that time has passed. | |

It there anything that could be done to disable seti@home? Just to remove the seti@home program for a particular time but has the option of starting the program again after that time has passed. Yes, there are three different options for different durations. 1) For an hour, right click on the boinc manager button the icon tray and select snooze. 2) For a fixed schedule, either set it up on the web or in the UI. (you can have BOINC running for a few hours every day if that is what you want to do. 3) For a long time, in the Advanced view, select suspend for the run options. Select run always for the run option to start again. If it has been too long, you may have to abort any tasks that you had when you started the suspend. 4) You can also suspend just a single project from the projects tab. Click on the project and click on the button labeled suspend (it will change to resume). 5) You can do the same for a task. Substitute task for project in #4. ____________ BOINC WIKI | |

Would the system be able to detect a signal coming from a moving object? | |

Would the system be able to detect a signal coming from a moving object? Yes, t is capable of detecting a signal from a moving object within limits (and I am not quite certain what those limits are). ____________ BOINC WIKI | |

My understanding (and please correct me if I'm wrong), is that there have been anomalies discovered that could point to ETI. However, when doing a followup on the best candidate signals, they didn't meet criteria (i.e. didn't repeat, in the wrong band, verified as natural or terrestrial phenomenon, etc). | |

It's a very very big haystack, and we're looking for a very very tiny needle. | |
