Interview With a SETI Astronomer

Posted by Hemos on from the the-craft-behind-the-scenes dept.

Siduri writes "We at Pigdog Journal conducted an interview with SETI astronomer Seth Shostak, and I think it's pretty interesting. He talks about the technical details behind what SETI and SETI@home do (the two programs are very different), and he speculates about the nature of alien intelligence. He's also quite funny."

  1. Worst interview I ever read by igomaniac · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I thought the point of writing up an interview was to isolate the interesting information from all the [sigh] and [mumbles] and "well..." and " I think [uhm] maybe - well, if you look at it like this, it might be.."

    Why was this terrible writeup ever posted? I couldn't bear to read more than half of it...
