Seen Any Aliens?
– – Have ‘ya seen any aliens lately?–No, not the illegal immigrant types, but rather the extraterrestrial variety.–Well, if you have, you may wanna hook up with setiQuest…
Now SETI of course is an acronym which stands for the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, and setiQuest adds a community involvement component, an effort to tap into the global brain trust and harness the power of citizen scientists! If you have the chops, you can participate as a software developer or signal detection algorithm developer, or simply help sort through data received from such programs. It is felt that a more global community can more rapidly discern and sort through anomalous signals in search of the proverbial needle in a haystack that might finally alert us to E.T. – – very cool stuff to be rolled out in the next year or so!

I could die happy if we’d make “First Contact” within my lifetime!
