I am a grad sutdent at Carnegie Mellon, doing my masters in Information Networking. Ive been hearing of this project since the time I was doing my undergraduate studies in India. I think this is an awesomely cool project.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I think this is an extraordinary joint effort to find if there is lif out there. The technology and the commitment of the people involved is really inspiring. I am happy I am contributing my mite, by donating my processor to this task. Happy hunting! And if anyone out there is found, I'll be happy knowing I was part of it all.
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.
