its a program for your comp. thats looks for alien radio transmissions.it takes very little room and looks cool as a screen saver.
Thunderfall, I think as webmaster you can create a civ fanatics group. What if the civers were the first to detect life outside earth? Its just something I thought was cool for the site, but sorry, I already belong to the body modification enzines group.
 
Heres a SETI, or the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, is a scientific effort aiming to determine if there is intelligent life out in the universe. There are many methods that SETI scientific teams use to search for extraterrestrial intelligence. Many of these search billions of radio frequencies that flood the universe, looking for another civilization that might be transmitting a radio signal. Other SETI teams search by looking for signals in pulses of light emanating from the stars.

that searches for extraterrestrial life. SETI@home allows anyone with a computer and an Internet connection to take part in the search. By using the computer while the owner is away, the SETI@home screensaver is able to search for extraterrestrial signals.

SETI@home users can form "groups": for example, students in a school, or employees of a company. Groups can compete to analyze the most data, or they can meet and discuss SETI via the web.

Does anyone else think it's hilarious that someone is trying to explain SETI to Civ players?

SETI: Search for Extremely Territorial Iroquois. Oh wait, I don't need to search for them since their mounted warriors already found me :mad: ;)

I got a free granary with the pyramids...

This doesn't seem too real to me.
 
289 data units on my old computer--taking it over 10000 hours. Haven't got around to putting it on this computer yet...
