Personal background |
me? I'm from Hampshire, UK and am a very humble college student scraping his way through Second year Chemistry and Mathematics. Hey, but that doesn't mean I'm not interested in them! I enjoy sciences like nothing else *laughs*
My hobbies are very varied, from thinking up trivial theories of the vast universe to trivial theories of that tiny world of neutrinos and quarks. From Linkin Park to Proms in the Park. From cross-stitch to model-building; I have too many interests to list.
But you know my favourite pastime? Finding a way to speed up my 400MHz PC to get my client whizzing results to Berkeley - I'm losing the battle so far, sadly. |
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
Methinks ETLife exists, there's too high a probability for there not to be, but it will be very difficult to discover it. However, SETI is a good start :) It's either we'll find them when we least expect it, when we don't know it, or we'll know when the whole population gets destroyed bar this black monolith and a reincarnation of Stanley Kubrick touching it...
Should we transmit a beacon for others to find? I thought we already did; that one that they just stopped tracking recently, with that sketch of a human and where we are in the Solar System. But if we make a new one, make a PC with a self-booting CD-ROM of info about Earth and a big button to start it all off, so it's nice and easy for the aliens to start it up.
SETI@Home is on my PC running right now, because I'd enjoy the publicity if I find life on Andromeda or my favourite constellation, Draco :D plus it's the only client now that supports my old PC well [unlike UD] My views are that Berkeley should get more support than those from the US, I mean Canada and the UK have a pretty good amount of people who would be willing to support ^_^ just ask
After all, Oxford support UD; why not let Cambridge support S@H and be a force to be reckoned with? |
