Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Seti@Home is one of the most worthwhile endeavours ever undertaken by the Human race. It is one of th few examples of science for the sake of science - no military or financial gain expected, only knowledge and thus, it is a noble cause. It is a shame that more money is not allocated by the US and all World governments for the future benefit that this project will engender for us and our children - the gift of knowlegde of our universe.
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.
