Personal background |
I'm an Astronomical Technologist currently working on staff at the American Association of Variable Star Observers in Cambridge, MA. My current research topics are variable stars and sunspots.
I love science and science fiction, strategic gaming and role-playing. I'm a Macintosh and Linux (Fedora, *ubuntu) fan.
When not working or working on stars, databases & computers, I can be found attending Starfleet/USS Accord meetings , watching my favorite TV shows (The West Wing, or any Star Trek series), playing with my two cats, Castor and Pollux. |
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
Based only on faith, and the current historic track record for discoveries of this type, finding ETI is inevitable. Nearly every astronomical discovery we've made in the last few hundred years has moved the human race farther from the "center of the universe."
We will find life outside the Earth within the next 50 years. This will be bacteria or viruses either on Mars or Europa.
We will also find ETI, but I won't say when. 8-) |
