The Universe

Do you know any interesting facts about the universe? What are they?

„There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,
Than are dreamt of in our philosophy.“
Earlier this year the SETI project has been stopped. SETI stands for Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence. The scientists of the SETI project searched the universe for radio signals from deep space which might indicate that we are not alone. Now the operations have been suspended. So perhaps we will never know …

Perfect but the last two sentences should be combined into one: "Now the operations have been suspended, so perhaps we will never know..."

The organisation itself is still running though. They are trying to get the ATA (Allen Telescope Array) back online and have got about $100,000 out of $200,000 required to bring the array out of hibernation.

They came up with something very intriguing though back in 1977 - the ''Wow! Signal'' - here is an article on it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wow_signal

.......Unless they contact us!!!

"To be or not to be that is the question?" ...... Or to paraphrase " Are they there or aren't they?" as Hamlet didn't say.

Excellent work as usual Ulrich. Well done.

Hi Meiann, thank you very much.

I'm afraid we won't hear them, when they try to contact us.
