I live in the north-eastern part of the United States. I work in the computer field and my hobbies include radio astronomy, astrophotograpohy, radio communications.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I firmly believe there is intelligent life in the universe other than on planet Earth. I believe we will discover life on other planets in our solar system before we detect signals from other planets.
A danger always exists when technology is obtained before one knows how to use it.
By all means...transmit that beacon! Let our neighbors know what we are all about.
I run SETI@home so I may be a part of the search for the big signal.
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.
