Has anyone ever though that we may be the first ones???
ET may exist, but we may be the first ones capable of sendind/listening messages from outer space (insert theremin track here).
Anyway, here's my small contribution.
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.
