IMPORTANT NOTICE:
SETI@home is switching to new software called BOINC,
which lets you run other projects
(like Climateprediction.net
and Einstein@home)
on your computer as well as SETI@home.
We recommend that all users install
the BOINC version of SETI@home.
The SETI@home program is a special kind of screensaver.
Like other screensavers it starts up when you leave your computer unattended,
and it shuts down as soon as you return to work.
What it does in the interim is unique.
While you are getting coffee, or having lunch or sleeping,
your computer will be helping the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence
by analyzing data specially captured
by the world's largest radio telescope.
