Looks like you install the app, then manually enter SETI@Home's URL for the project to join.

I just installed it; waiting to get my first work unit.

You can set it so it only runs when plugged into an outlet, which is a nice battery-saving option.


There are other projects you can join as well, if you're not into aliens. I personally have been looking for them for over 14 years.

1. SETI@home is cool.

Based at the Aricebo observatory, UC Berkeley has it's own receiver at the dish running 24/7. Wherever the antenna is pointed they take data. Not the most efficient method since they don't target specific stars, they do collect massive amounts of data. (AFAIK)

Or aliens will show up on the screen
