Personal background

I'm from Barcelona, (Spain). I'm 37 years old and my Hobbies are very, very different, but three of the most important are poetry, exobiology and astrophysics...

Since I've discover the SETI Project in 1980, -when I was only a little boy-, I became to take interest through the TV Show "Cosmos" of Carl Sagan, and since this moment my love to listen radio signals of another intelligent people -E.T's- ;) are very big inside my heart, just to a moment in 1999 when I discovered the SETI@home project in Internet. In this years: (2004 to 2006), I've discovered the BOINC projects and my heart and my brain needs participate to BOINC projects...

Since five years and a half ago, I'm a member of the project SETI, and I always can watch hours and hours the computer monitor... I'm listened the background noise. I've more than 7,965 hours of work and more than 593 classic Work Units and BOINC Units processed to this moment, (not 472), but one time. In the work unit number 74 I could see something estrange, just became the data analysis when I Advised that the SETI@home client was not right as another times, and doesn't analyzed more than the 1% of the work unit and it take my attention to connect to leave the results. I don't know who was it, but I field any "estrange thing" through my all body... :) For me, that's necessary from my compression of universe is any reality.

Now I Know what was it (any test work unit from Berkeley, but I still feel fine when I remember that thing).

Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home II

Ufff! Very hard questions to answer: :)

1. - About 1999 when I discovered the project, my passion was try to help to find "anything".

2. - I desired to help in the most ambition scientific project -and other projects of BOINC-, but also the most beautiful of the history of the humanity. It's good, because of the scientific, religious, politicians and social benefits, that are not calculated today, but it have more human relevance that the possible damages. And this project (SETI and others), may make a strong union between the humans. The Humanity needs some connection to cosmos: any question, a project and a very important answer... And two very important questions: Who speaks for Earth? Who speaks for the Humanity, life and flora and fauna?

3. - The extraterrestrial life, is something wonderful that may be discover. It's a travel to the future and the past in the same time, is a huge point to reach, but marvellous to discover that we are not alone. I think that we will discover ET's in the future, if is not with this project maybe with and others. This of discover, will be very good for the science and the unique damage will be a biological damage. I think many times about it, and maybe we will not be able to make a "real physical contact" like the science-fiction contacts, but i think that I will be good over wise. Our Radio and TV transmissions are enough to "them" to listen the humans, but may will be a radio telescope -o more- continuously sending signal to the out space, signals with all kind of data: our discovers, our knows, our history, all day and night, and if all the humans make a fatal error our remember will seal the deep space for all the eternity.
