Since
funding for the Seti at Home 2 project has not been finalized yet, the
Berkeley team has come up with an ingenious, and cost effective solution for
gathering data outside the limits of the Arecibo telescope. Using
the Seti at Home roving signal detector, they will be able to start
collecting data from anywhere in the country. This portion of the project
would have started sooner but, due to safety concerns, they needed some time to let the bus air out
before it was occupied.
