| Personal background |
|---|
I was born and live in Australia. I joined the Royal Australian Navy as an Electronics Technician when I was 16 and stayed in for the next 11.5 years. During that time, I travelled around the world a bit and was able to see a few different countries and cultures.
I'm still an electronics technician but I'm no longer in the Navy. I live in Perth, Australia and am very happy with my life. |
| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
I don't know if life exists. I hope it does but I don't think there has been any real evidence that it does.
If extraterrestrial life does exist, I think we will be found by it instead of the other way around.
I would love to be alive to experience, with the rest of the world, the discovery of the existence of life elsewhere. There would be panic, joy, caution, awe, the whole range of emotions felt around the globe.
I'm not sure if we should transmit a beacon for others to find. If we did, then I don't think there should be too much information in ti, just enough to let whoerver is listening that we exist. Biological information about us apart from an outline of our body shouldn't be included.
I run SETI@home because, if there is life out there somewhere, I hope we discover it and I'd like to help process the huge amount of data that can be gathered while searching. |
