Some of you may have already heard about this. It's a screensaver that downloads and analyzes data from radio telescopes in the hope of finding a signal from an extraterrestrial intelligence. I downloaded the program this morning, and it's pretty neat. Doubtful that I'll end up finding something, but who knows?
