Why are we crunching numbers from Arecibo recorded in 2009? The Green Bank Telescope data is current to 2016.

Because the older Arecibo data was not previously processed with the newer science apps, which do more analysis than was done before.

The info is in the task name

e.g
03no09ae.28641.9070.14.41.51


This is a randon task off my wu's think "03" is the 3rd "no" is November and "09" is the year might be the other way around but think i got it right .
Belive the other bits are where the telescope was pointed at the time the recording was made
Life is what you make of it :-)

When i'm good i'm very good , but when i'm bad i'm shi#eloads better ;-) In't I " buttercups " p.m.s.l at authoritie !!;-)

I got it from the graphics task or check the screen saver. Look in Data Info in the upper right hand corner and you'll see it.
