I am an computer technician and I work for a School. I am 50ish and this is my first serious encounter with Seti.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I do think that Aliens exist and that they are indeed already among us. I would like to think that they would be benevolent and that the information exchange between our two cultures would lead to an enlightened peace between our worlds.
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.
