I'm 37 years old and an Electrical Engineering grad from Auburn University (War Eagle!:) I've worked as a software developer for about 14 years. I'm married with 2 1/2 kids, girl 9, boy 2 and one on the way.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
My scientific backgroud says that life exists elsewhere in the universe. It will be difficult to prove until we can travel the cosmos. Shake hands with our alien neighbors.
I cannot wait for the day when man takes flight beyond our local solar system. I once day dreamed about space travel as a kid in 5th grade while reading a book on space travel. Books in that day thought we would be living as shown on Star Trek. Anything that I do to help find the truth is worth it.
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.
