Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
In an infinite universe, SETI is literally looking at a spec of space around us. There will be intelligent life out there, but will we find it in the spec of space we're looking at? We won't know until we search.
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.
