Formerly student, I now work for a hardware developing company. I have a real fast computer now. But seti@home really should work with a CUDA compatible graphics card on Macintosh :(
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I think there are chances for extraterrestrial life to exist but we should wait hundred or twohundred years to transmit signals for them to find us. We should have really good spaceships by then.
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.
