I am an aged computer geek. I have found that if my computer is running when I'm not using it, why not SETI? I'm excited about "Web 2.0" and what that misnomer brings to the table.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Like the movie "Contact", I share the opinion that if there are millions of stars and millions of planets and millions of miles of space...seems like a waste if we were the only ones, doesn't it?
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.
