ATNF Colloquium
SETI and CASPER
by Dan Werthimer (University of California, Berkeley)
Abstract. Dan Werthimer will discuss the search for radio, infrared, and optical signals from other civilizations. Berkeley's SETI@home project analyzes Arecibo data using desktop computers from millions of volunteers. SETI@home participants have contributed millions of years of computer time and have formed one of Earth's most powerful supercomputers. Users have the small but captivating possibility their computer will detect the first signal from a civilization beyond Earth.
