© WWSeti 2003 - 2008 The World Wide S.E.T.I. Team has been in existance since February of 2003. We are now over 440 members that are representing almost 50 different countries.

Our main objective is to unify as many people as possible from around the world. We believe that the World Wide S.E.T.I. Team should be an example of how people from different cultures and backgrounds can interact with each other and work towards a common goal, unifying to achieve something as great as contact with other worlds. This coming together of people from all over the world also creates an opportunity for people to meet and learn about other cultures; by exposing themselves to international personalities, our members learn much and better understand other ethnicities.

We have made it our goal to make it into the top 100 overall teams. While achieving this goal, we will meet people from other countries. Eventually we would like to create a gathering of our World Wide S.E.T.I. Team members, in order to finally meet the other people with whom we become close on the forums.

Let's show everyone what the world can do!

The Arecibo Observatory (pictured top right) located in Puerto Rico, is the home of the largest radio telescope on this planet.

The Observatory records data on what it sees up there in our universe. This data is what this team (and many others) crunch in a truly combined effort to find any known life out there.

Of course it isn't just about looking for ET (didn't you just love that movie?), the data is processed looking for anything else that may just cross the path of the telescope - pulsars, new universes, new stars, etc.

Berkeley University in California in the USA is the place for all that data to be sent, and this in turn is sent out to us, the crunchers of the world, we process the information and it is then sent back to Berkeley for final processing. This entire process is known as distributed computing.
