Hi ... are you still around on SGL?
I’m a recent member who joined last summer.I was surprised there isn’t a dedicated SETI section on the Forum?
In a Search to see discussions on SETI on SGL ...your post about seti@home project popped up ... and I was wondering if that was a group of astronomers interested in research into ETI in our own ‘backyard’ ... so to speak?
We have a wonderful interesting planet in this part of the Galaxy that appears to attract a lot of visitors .... but most astronomers just seem to want to laugh it off ... and ignore the fact. Sadly, not very open-minded.
(P.S. I’m Jon, my writing pulls no punches😁, I’m 63, based in the West Midlands, Coseley ... I’m Lincoln born and raised - and visit my elderly mother regularly on Broadway.(virus restrictions permitting!)Regards

I understand Henry’s observatory known as “”The Beehive” was given to Lancing College in Sussex. I had the pleasure to visit his observatory in Sevenoaks in the 1970’s when he had virtually given up observing the moon and was concentrating on the Sun viewing with a spectrohelioscope in h-alpha. By a strange twist of fate my daughter now lives in his old home!

It's such a shame that few members of Stargazerslounge take part in seti@home. Even the Founder of our team at seti@home appears not to contribute anymore, though he/she seems reluctant to give up control! lol

Why is that very sad?
It's a SGL group, a group that i started some years ago, why would you want to take over a group that you didn't start.
I guess the control comment you made applies even more to you than me. At least i want to maintain control of the group i started and not try to get control of other peoples groups.
Quite sad really, I agree....
