Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Think life probably exists somewhere in the universe but probably not nearby (Unless we find it on Mars!). As for running Seti@home, well, we have to start somewhere...
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.
