Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I run SETI because I think it is neat to be able to contribute to someone else's project. Plus, my computer at uni is on most of the day anyway, why shouldn't it be doing something useful? :)
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.
