I'm a 22 year old Biology student at San Jose State University. I like to play guitar and generally do anything with music. I also like art and working with computers. I built my own computer last year and have been running SETI@home on it for the entire time I've had it.

| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
I do believe extraterrestrial life exists. How could we possibly be the only forms of life in the entire universe out of billions of stars and plannets just like our own? It seems almost more impossible that we would be the only ones rather than if other life formed as well.
It's hard to say if or when we will ever discover other life within any of our lifetimes.
If we do find life, there would be an endless amount of new questions that arise ranging from where it came from, do they have DNA, is it carbon based life, what kind of ecosystem did it live in... all sorts of new information and if the life is intellegent we would also be able to gain new technology from them.
It's doubtfull to think that extraterrestrial life would be intentionally hostile towards us.
I think we should, in time, find a way to transmit a signal for other civilizations to look for us. It's a lot easier to find someone if you are shouting for them.
We should send a greeting along with information about us and our planet, the information we know as well as where we are located in the universe.
I run SETI@home because it's cool and I want my computer to actually do something productive while im away from it.
I think insted of a huge graph, SETI should include where the signal that is being analized originated from. I know there are other programs that can do that but it would be cool to just include it in the screensaver |
