I'm from Denver, Colorado. I hope to see evidence of intelligence from outside our galaxy in my lifetime. I have been a big supporter of The SETI project, and hope to contribute where I can.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I don't like to shut down my computers. When I have a machine in a non-processing state, it only makes sense to utilize it with The SETI project. This project could one day be the biggest thing since sliced bread. Imagine...perhaps one of us individuals here will be instrumental in the processing and discovery of an intelligence other than our own. Talk about winning the lottery....:)
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.
