Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
We are all travelers of the higher order on Spaceship Earth. SETI can be our path of elightenment...to seek out new worlds, new life, and new civilizations...to boldly go were no man has gone before...

There is just one thing I can promise you about the outer-space program - your tax-dollar will go further.
- Wernher von Braun

We can lick gravity, but sometimes the paperwork is overwhelming.
- Wernher von Braun
