More than two million people have agreed to help with the search for
extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) by using a screen saver on their computers
to sift data from the Arecibo radio telescope in Puerto Rico. SETI astronomers

Pasadena, California, one of the project鈥檚 sponsors. Every day 2000 new
volunteers sign up.
