Hi - I'm a 30-year old U.S. Air Force contractor (prior active duty Air Force) stationed in Bahrain. I ran across SETI while studying a textbook on astrophysics, so I decided to check it out (my computers are almost always running, so why not give them something to do?). My hobbies include astronomy and astrophotography. I own a Meade LX200GPS 10" (Schmidt-Cassegrain) that I spend a lot of time on.
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.
