I am Ernst Schnell, German citizen living around the world while working in the oilfield. I am also a nerd and gadget geek. Therefore I am interested in collaborative computing and actively participate in things like Wikipedia and ... SETI@home.
Currently living in the Netherlands, where internet by broadband cable network is both ubiquitous and cheap, I am having a great time.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I am running SETI@home because I find the idea of finding extraterrestrial intelligence and making contact fascinating. I also like to explore collaborative projects and like to take my little Shuttle PC for a ride. So here I am.
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.
