I am working in a Romanian Physics research institute, on elementary particle physics subjects. I like nature sciences and I believe the GRID-based projects are a good and necessary solution for the rapidly increasing computing demands.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I run SETI@home, because I think that we have something to learn even from the traces of other civilizations (or their absence). Besides, new acquintances could also bring new friends :)
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.
