We are the Working Group of Prof. W. Bannwarth located at the University of Freiburg/Department for organic chemistry(check out our link!).
We are currently supporting SETI with five PII 400MHz and a Silicon Graphics O2-Workstation (about 3 Years old, running IRIX 6.5) and reach a performance of about 20-25 packages a week.
A few weeks ago (July 2002) we read an article about Seti@home in the Spiegel-Online-Mag and decided to dedicate our idle CPU-time (which is quite a lot) to SETI.
Ok, thats it for now.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
The possibility of extraterrestrial life seems to be great, with a universe so vast. I think every member of the Seti-community believes in the existence of it. The only problem seems to be to detect the signs of it within the tiny amount of time our lives allow us...
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.
