The only thing I know about SKA is that its headquarters where to be in Padova then the UK protested by suggesting Jodrell Bank. I don't know if this hsa been settled.

Quite what links to proceedings dated 1984 and 1987, 30 years ago, have to do with anything rather escapes me.

In July 2015 Russian billionaire philanthropist Yuri Milner announced that his Breakthrough Initiatives would donate US$100 million over the course of 10 years to fund SETI projects. The Allen Telescope Array is being upgraded with more sensitive electronic radio receivers, capable at working at even higher frequencies.

please, be my guest...find a W gain of receiver:

& btw, it's a "wider frequencies", not higher...but journalists don't know the difference anyway! :D

I'm really looking forward to see SKA operational...not so in EU, but mostly in SA & AUS, 'cause of the coverage of southern sky...something we didn't crunch...

will SKA provide data for SETi@home also?! ;)

I don't believe that the great arrays like ALMA and SKA will ever give data to SETI@home. They cost too much to build and operate and astronomers are anxious to use them for their researches. Only older telescopes like Arecibo, Parkes and Green Bank can be used to search for ETI. Even the Allen Telescope Array, to the best of my knowledge, searches for ETI only a third of its time. The others two thirds are used for research in astronomy and watch for satellites and other objects by the US Air Force, which partially finances its operation. This I have read in 'Nature", since the SETI Institute does not details its costs. I read that operating Arecibo costs 12 million dollars/year, also in "Nature".

so, they have enough of CPU power for their own ETi search?!

And it is you who posted the link to Serendip?

I know next to nothing of the SETI Institute, if you are referring to them. They never gave any data to SETI@home.

No not Seti Institute, other UC Berkeley SETI searches.

yes, the question remains...does Berkeley has enough CPU/GPU power for:
- LoFAR (Low Frequency SETi)
- SERENDIP
- NIR-SETi
- SEVENDIP
- IR excess / Dyson spheres

Will SETi@home get new data from different sources...not only Arecibo (& soon GBT) telescope(s)?!

Most of those projects pre-date seti@home, so they have had the computing power since before seti@home. Not only that but they are real-time processing the data.

You should ask the people of Breakthrough Listen. I don't know.

yeah, but if you check the site...it's said that only SETi@home does a "deep analysis of the signal"...

maybe other projects can also make sthg out of a "deep analysis"?!
