Is Anyone out There: The Hundred-Million Dollar "Breakthrough: Listen" Project
Manage episode 348911325 series 2941692
with Dr. Dan Werthimer of the University of California, Berkeley
What is the possibility of other intelligent life in the universe and how might we detect signals from alien civilizations? Dr. Werthimer describes current and future projects searching for such signals, including the new $100-million Breakthrough Prize Foundation "Listen" project to "tune in" on messages that civilizations around other stars might be sending out. He shows how new technologies are revolutionizing the search for extra-terrestrial intelligence (SETI).
Dr. Werthimer was one of the founders of the SETI@home project, which analyzed data from the world's largest radio telescope using the desktop computers and cell phones of millions of volunteers.
