Personal background
I am a 33 year old male who currently works at Heathrow airport speciallising in Global Logistics. I have been there almost four years and its been an experiance. I am currently studying with the Open University as i hope to improve my understanding of the enviroment and how the human race is changing this planet and to gain new skills and qualifications. I am very interested in space and technology and i have a passion for aircraft, cars and sailing and computers. I live in Berkshire and commute daily along one of the great carparks in the world.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Seti Home is excellent and i hope if will continue for a very long time. Its nice to making history aswell instead of reading about it in books or watching it on television. I think there is life out there, the universe is so vast that we simply havent dicovered it or maybe we have and the fact is hidden away in some dusty government vault!.
Hundreds of years ago the planet Earth was much like the universe, as unexplored wilderness. For people like Marco Polo, the Viking and Captain Scott they explored this planet and discovered much, simply because they were open minded enough to try. Knowledge is very much like exploration and should never be taken lightly. People in history have slated people for being open minded and generating unusual ideas which many of there peers at the time simply didnt understand or didnt want to. Many of these ideas evolved into technolgy we use today. The chances of making contact in my lifetime grows daily as we have being broadcasting radios wave and other media into space for the last century. thats are signpost, our beacon. I just hope we have given any potential reader a good impression of our species and they dont become hooked on TV shows like Friends or ER. Alien contact would change the human race forever and i think we would understand that we are just a drop in the ocean. As for contact i would rather meet them in space as the benefits of contact would far outweigh the problems as we could learn much to benefit the human race.
