Born 06/05/1972 in Setúbal, Portugal. A “wanna be†scientist that ended out a journalist. But I still look up at the sky and lose myself amazed in its hugeness… The narrow paths of life – money makes the earth go around - didn’t allow me to study Astrophysics. Literature was the alternative way (glad, though). Yet, authors as Carl Sagan or Hubert Reeves are still favorite ones.
The tiny bits of time left out by work are spent reading, writing, watching movies and, sometimes, surfing the Net. Maybe I’ll become an Astrophysics student and turn out to be a scientist when I grow up… after the Master Degree on Literature.

| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |

It’s a way to participate in a project that, should it strikes out results, it will be one of the greatest achievements of these “little colorful menâ€. When it happens, the differences between the people on earth will become sloppy and we’ll realize that we are part of something greater than petty interests of this voracious life. The fact that this is a project using the home PC’s around the world proves it and strikes out the ambivalence of the economic strategies on science. A small contribution from each man (and woman), a big leap for mankind, isn’t it?
