Is Anyone Else Out There? with Dan Werthimer

SETI is the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, a passive listening experiment, while METI's goals are to be the sender hoping a signal reaches a similar or more advanced civilization. But is this a good idea? Who get's to decide who and what is sent, and what if sending those messages leads to our entire planet's destruction? Dan Werthimer is the Co-Founder and Chief Scientist of the SETI@Home Project at the University of California, Berkeley. He specializes in signal processing for radio astronomy. He has been doing SETI since 1979, and he runs the SERENDIP, Optical SETI, and CASPER projects.
