Help physicists at CERN to uncover the fundamental building blocks of nature.
Lend your computer while it is in sleep mode, to facilitate the huge amounts of data being gathered by the biggest scientific instrument ever created. The Large Hadron Collider is scheduled to turn its beam on in May 2008. Go to the LHC@Home page to set it up.
If a billionth of a billionth of the human scale is too small for you, then how about
the universe, and giving a hand to the University of California at Berkeley? Lend your computer’s idle time to the SETI@home program where you can help the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI). Your computer would help gather data received from the Allen Telescope Array. Check out the full story while you’re there.
Share your dreams with your computer while it sleeps.
