I'm a early 70's child from Pori, Finland and want to use my computers to do something useful when I'm not using them for something not so useful.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I think intelligence exists outside our little playground. It would be selfish to think we're the only ones. The SETI project is one of the smartest things ever invented to use idle computers. So, it's a small contribution but I sure am happy to help.
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.
