From New Scientist I have learned of a project of the SETI Institute to have the data coming from the Allen Telescope Array crunched by volunteers. They seek developers to help them develop the project and volunteers to process the data. See www.SETIquest.org. But why don't they use BOINC? Tullio See also in number crunching. |

From New Scientist I have learned of a project of the SETI Institute to have the data coming from the Allen Telescope Array crunched by volunteers. They seek developers to help them develop the project and volunteers to process the data. See http://www.SETIquest.org. Good Question. I looked and that address does not work or It doesn't exist according to Verizon. You might try this one though, But It's just an announcement that leads no where, Oh sure there's this link(World Wide Web: SETIQuest) But It leads to some sort of search engine that's sort of like Google or Yahoo and according to the WOT extension the link has a bad reputation, So I'd not go there as It may be a site interested in Seti, But a site trying to sell one something and have nothing to do with Seti. http://www.coseti.org/setiques.htm The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

Sorry Moon It's a false alarm, I checked It out, It's phony. Did you check out setiquest.com or setiquest.org? Gruß, Gundolf Computer sind nicht alles im Leben. (Kleiner Scherz) SETI@home classic workunits 3,758 SETI@home classic CPU time 66,520 hours |

I do not think this has anything to do with the Seti institute. Here is their website: http://www.seti.org/Page.aspx?pid=1366 SetiQuest is mentioned, But the site mentioned earlier isn't supported by the Seti Institute. The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

I do not think this has anything to do with the Seti institute. Here is their website: http://www.seti.org/Page.aspx?pid=1366 Tullio: I was in error on the mentioning as the Seti Institute does mention SetiQuest, As such I'm emailing the Seti Institute a question on this issue and about the setiquest.org and the setiquest.com websites. I've also asked why the duplication of effort too. Here's the contact page for the Seti Institute: http://www.setiquest.org/contact The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

Now the setiquest.org page is working, It may be a DNS issue, So that checks out as I entered from the Seti Institute website and Seti Quest's website finally worked. The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

Here's a screen grab of when one goes to setiquest.com so far, It's a website that's for sale or something. The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

Yes, but I was citing setiquest.org. Tullio |

Yes, but I was citing setiquest.org. Yes, I know, I thought I'd include the .com address as It doesn't go anywhere at the moment. And of course It is named setiquest.com... The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

Haha. Seriously, tho, I love SAH for the community but it sure would be nice if a project came along that had a hope-in-heck of succeeding. :o) Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas. Albert Einstein |

SETIquest is not a competitor. All of you should know that and have at least read one verifiable story. Volunteers can only look and sift manually through data and pick out bits that could be ETI. Very inefficient, and I think most will only be inquisitive and look once. SETI opens its data up to citizen scientists. Also, on the above link, read the comments. - Luke. |

I think you misunderstood me. I love this place . . . from a social/community POV. But, from what I understand of SAH's scientific protocols, it would come up with a negative for intelligent life on Earth, so it seems doomed to ultimate failure. SETI Institute's targeted search idea seems more likely to succeed. Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas. Albert Einstein |

Maybe before we keep searching the far reaches of the great "out there", we should ask Miss Moon what's been coming to visit her... ;) |
