Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Life is out there, odds are in favor of this. We, however, do not have odds in favor of us finding it anytime soon, but without trying we have zero odds.
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.
