I would see myself as an astronomy - freak and I like everything that has to do with space. That's one reason for running SETI@home. But I heard from this project by one of my teachers.
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.
