I live in Washington State and am a 43 year old retired Navy Senior Chief Petty Officer.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I'm certain that we'll find life somewhere out there. I started running SETI@home as soon as I heard about it. It's nice to know that my system is doing something worthwhile in it's slack time.
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.
