Several years ago I've heard about the Seti project, but because I had an internet-connection through a dial-up modem I did not join it. Now I've got ADSL and my line is open 24/7. So a good moment to join.
I'm 45, married since 15 years and one of my hobbies ( apart of my wife ofcourse ) is video-editing on the computer. It takes a lot of time but also gives lots of pleasure.
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.
