Alien hunters: An array of hope
By Jason Palmer Science and technology reporter, BBC News

The hunt for signals from intelligent extraterrestrials has been in full swing for half a century. But the effort's flagship facility recently came to a grinding halt. The first of a two-part series on the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (Seti) takes a look at the facility and what it means for Seti's future.

"It's never been this bad."

Seth Shostak, principal astronomer for the Seti Institute in Mountain View, California, is trying the door of an outbuilding at the Allen Telescope Array (ATA). Like all the others, it is locked.

"There's always been at least one or two people around who can let you in."

The group of 42 antennas is, as the flyer posted nearby advises, "in the process of being returned to operations". Last April, there wasn't enough money in the Seti coffers to pay the staff, and the facility shut down.

A funding drive raised money from Seti enthusiasts including former astronaut Bill Anders, sci-fi author Larry Niven, and even Hollywood actress Jodie Foster. But it's only enough to keep going for a few months.

"Since 1993, Seti has had to run on private donations from people who think this is an interesting thing to do," Seth tells me.

"I remain confident that we'll find the money to make this a permanent operation. After all, you're not going to find ET unless you have the telescope operational."

R E V E L A T I O N:

As long as SH0LVA keeps regurgitating his lies, we will keep repeating the truth.

All quotes can be checked and verified as to be in context and accurate.

Enjoy!

@jkIinne8 LOL! SH0LVA is so wrong that he now has to copy screen names to pretend to be me.

[jkIinne8]

We should really think again about our ufoistical belief, because SH0LVA is right. There is not one single tangible proof, a UFO is something else, than a misidentified natural or man made phenomenon.

[SH0LVA]

«No UFO reported, investigated and evaluated by the Air Force was ever an indication of threat to our national security. There was no evidence submitted to or discovered by the Air Force that sightings categorized as "unidentified" represented technological developments or principles beyond the range of modern scientific knowledge; and there was no evidence indicating that sightings categorized as "unidentified" were extraterrestrial vehicles.»

~ Dr. Edward U. Condon, 1969

[jklinne8]

UFOs mean "unidentified" and these unidentified things have been verified breeching highly restricted air space. There are hundreds of witness testimony and radar confirmation from US military personal on this. Some are the same people with codes for launching ICBMs reporting that these unidentified things appeared as all power to launch missiles went out. So whether it’s mass military insanity which I tend to doubt, it's very important and deserving of a proper investigation, aliens or not!

Colonel Muamar Al-Ghadaffi won't go. He will fight down all terrorists and his enemies within two or three days, so western countries can continue to benefit from his goodness, his cheap oil and his iron fist, that keeps away African migrants from Europe, Israel and America by deadly force.
