What's more alien life in an enduring human endeavor is now let's close as your laptop all you need is said.
Computer and Internet access in the desire to help out.
-- -- the search for extraterrestrial intelligence.
Is recruiting citizen scientists to help unscramble billions of radio signals and isolate those coming from earth or space satellites.
From sources quite literally out of this world we're looking for a signal that simply says one thing.
There's somebody out their clever enough to have built a radio transmitter right now 42 radio telescopes in northern California.
Are gathering data from star systems that scientists have determined could contain earth like planets and the problem is there are just too many signals for studies computer -- to analyze alone.
That's why the data coming in through these telescopes is being posted online available for free to amateur astronomers or anyone else interested in finding each scene is study scientists say their computer algorithms can't discern anomalies as well as the human not.
With -- -- dot -- space enthusiasts like Alan Schwartz can identify -- patterns I see what looks to me like some kind of faint -- here report her findings and just maybe discover a long lost signals.
From intelligent life beyond our galaxy is just so tantalizing.
And if enough people I -- -- by the same mysterious pattern those telescopes will take a closer look.
