Einstein@Home is a distributive computing project created to analyze data from the
LIGO and GEO 600 experiments, which are searching for gravity waves created by astronomical events across our galaxy.
You can help by donating spare processing time on personal computers to run a program
which analyzes raw data from the experiments, hunting for the signals which might be created by gravity waves.
All you need is a computer which has Internet access to download data and upload
results; the processing software is available for a number of operating systems. The faster the processor, the more data your
machine can crunch; while dial-up Internet connections can be used, an always-on DSL or cable connection is easier to manage
British and Russian scientists are planning a satellite system that
