Currently living and working on a island on the Great Barrier Reef off the coast of Queensland in Australia. Been very lucky to have traveled to many parts of the world and met some really amazing people.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I think that life should be about exploration. To explore the world and yourself. SETI is like the ultimate way to explore, so any small part I could play in this is well worth my (and my computers) time.
Life has to exist in some form in the universe. What form it takes and if we ever find it is quite another story. Many may say that to even bother looking is folly, but I believe that to dismiss the possability of contact is the greatest mistake humans could make.
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.
