Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
In the words of the wonderful movie "Contact" If there wasn't anyone else out there it would be an awful waste of space. BOINC will take some getting used to after SETI@home command line classic.
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.
