I'm a 30 something instrumentation tech in northern Alberta who works and plays with computers. I've been involved with SETI on and off for several years, having had a few different accounts.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
My PC sits unused by me for weeks at a time due to my work, therefore it might as well be doing something usefull.
I'm of the opinion that we're not alone and that it's just a matter of time before we prove it!
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.
