I am currently a student in the University of Wisconsin system and am proudly going for a Web Developement and also a Computer Info Systems Majors. I came across the SETI@Home project whilst going through the extras of one of my favorite movies, Star Trek: First Contact. It inspired me to seek out SETI@Home and somehow contribute, no matter how little, to the cause. I've been a lifelong fan of Star Trek and can only hope our future will someday be as exceptional as the one Gene Roddenberry envisioned.
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.
