Hi I'm Chris. I'm 34 and still enjoy playing with computer hardware, as I get older the toys get bigger and more expensive
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Having built a fast machine at home it would have been criminal not to make some good used of otherwise unused processor cycles. So why NOT let SETI@HOME use them.
As to whether we'll find anything, who knows. But better to look and see than to close you eyes to the possibilities.
SETI@home and Astropulse are funded by grants from the National Science Foundation, NASA, and donations from SETI@home volunteers. AstroPulse is funded in part by the NSF through grant AST-0307956.
