17. It's alive alright

I run Seti@Home (Einstein). There are hundreds of thousands who run the program that stands for "Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence." They are physicists, engineers, scientists, astronomers (and probably astrologers , military, college professors, movie-makers (probably), and dummies like me.

They use home computers to scan tasks and piece them all together.

This appears on every Seti-Einstein web page:

This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under Grants PHY-1104902, PHY-1104617 and PHY-1105572 and by the Max Planck Gesellschaft (MPG). Any opinions, findings, and conclusions or recommendations expressed in this material are those of the investigators and do not necessarily reflect the views of the NSF or the MPG.


The NSF is funded by the US Government. Also private donations.

*I* think the reason you don't hear about many saucers is that they have an agreement with the USGovt. They're all over the place in countries that probablly don't have any agreement. Many here think they have a foothold in the government already.

Nobody discusses aliens on the Einstein discussion boards seriously, but the hope to hear something is like the elephant in the room, and I hope ETs will let us know they're here first because we're the least likely group of people who will shoot at them...who knows, maybe we should though. I wonder if there's a law relating to shooting aliens. Funny the NRA hasn't used UFOs as another inducement to buy a gun.

Oh, if you like biblical reading, and who doesn't) , try to find a copy of the Pseudepigrapha. It's two giant volumes; these are books written between the Old Testament and New Testament that weren't approved by the Council of Nicea - climbing up and down steps to heaven, messengers, spaceships, etc. Very interesting, written by normal humans about not everyday creatures.

Cheers..
