SETI@Estonia is an
Estonian team in distributed computing project SETI@home. Our primary
goal is to analyse data received from radio-telescopes and find
possible signals from extra terrestrial life.

Future - next project
Neutron star is a collapsed star of extremely high density. Generally
these objects have slightly more mass than the Sun, but are only about
10 km in radius. A neutron star has intense gravity, and may also have
an intense magnetic field and fast rotational component.
During their lifetimes, all stars continuously perform an energy
balancing act. The heat and energy generated in a star's core want to
make it expand, while the star's gravity wants to make it contract. The
perfect balance between the two can keep a star shining stably for
billions of years. Eventually, a star runs out of fuel in its center.
When this happens, there is no longer a generation of heat and energy
in the interior, and nothing is present to counteract the
self-gravitation of the star. For very massive stars the sudden,
gravitational collapse of the star results in the supernova explosion.
After a supernova explosion, all that is left of the original star is
the core - called a neutron star. A neutron star contains up to 1.5
times as much matter as the Sun, making the density of these objects
tremendous. This much matter in such a small space creates an
gravitational field, so powerful that it can bend light.
A pulsar is a neutron star that appears to flash on and off many times
a second. The magnetic field is so strong that it causes most of the
light and radiation that the neutron star emits to be concentrated into
cones of emission, like beams from a lighthouse. If the neutron star is
spinning, like the Earth rotates on its axis, and if the Earth happens
to lie in the path of the beams, we receive a pulse of radiation each
time a beam sweeps across the earth. A pulsar may be seen in gamma
rays, X-rays, visible light, radio waves or other bands of radiation.
Pulsars will be our next target in project AstroPulse. AstroPulse is
currently not available.
