I run Seti because I believe that there is intelligent life in the universe. Perhaps this is one way to verify that.
IN my lifetime, I don't expect to encounter extraterrestrials but I believe that they have been here.
I have been a member of the project since nearly the beginning and am happy to donate my unused computer time.
It seems hard to transfer the project from one computer to the other. What happens when a person has two computers. Does each one need to be registered?
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.
