I am managing director of an international software company. My hobbies (beside computing) are on the "physical side" heavy biking and swimming. ´Spiritual I love reading science fiction stories and everything scientific about astronomy, evolution, chaos theory and related areas. I am convinced - that there must be millions of ETI's out there in the one or several universes. Of course I hope - with SETI we'll get evidence of at least one ETI.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
1..n universes ...
with billions of galaxies ...
with billions of stars ...
...
if one thinks that's all just for "us" on earth ... and there's no-one else out there ... this is an antropocentic pre-justice. We are children of the cosmos - and I am convinced - there are various other forms of life "out there" .. .where there is the truth :-))
I run SETI@home, as I think its a phantastic idea via distributed computing looking within a "big community" for ETI.
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.
