Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
No clue really why I use SETI@home, this was the first such project I ever contributed to and I think it's rather funny that I spend my excess computer time finding aliens rather than helping with medical research or earth science projects which are available.
Suggestions I have would be to bring back a command line version. The GUI is nice and all, but I prefer results over fancy graphics.
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.
