Hi, I'm form Italy, I study Economy..and..uh...what i should say more? ;-)
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I run SETI@home because it seems interesting: it's exciting thinking that your aid (and the aid of other users) could discover a message (or a signal of presence) of alien intelligence. It could give us some answers to the eternal question: why i am there? What is the meaning of life?
We probably won't see directly aliens (they are so distant!)....i see it as a philosophical reserch, rather than a strictly scientifical reserch.....
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.
