Personal background |
I live in London,am 35 and I run a small interior design and antique business, and have long had a fascination with space and the cosmos. I remember as a small boy watching Carl Sagan's series Cosmos on TV and being hooked, and my brother giving me EE 'Doc' Smith Lensmen series to read. I would have loved to have been an astronomer or Cosmologist - only my inability to get to grips with calculus - means Seti@home and my telescope are as close as I will get to being one! |
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
ET is out there, I only hope they are friendly - and we don't live in David Brin's Uplift Universe ( although it would be interesting!) If SETI@home does not find it, it will be found by someone else (obviously), I think mass computing will have something to do with it. Dangers are massive upheaval here on planet earth - will our religions have any relevance from that point on? Benefits are that we have alot to strive for and it might make people take space exploration more seriously.
We are already a beacon in space, I only hope they don't judge us on what they see.
I run SETI@home because it is an interesting project, and ultimately a worthwhile one. When it comes to an end - I might move onto the medical mass computing projects....
My only suggestion is that there could be more updates as to progress and what has been found and the analysis thereof. Maybe we should be listening in another part of the radio spectrum.......??
