.What to Do Today: Talks on Extra-Terrestrial Life, School Lunch, Asian-American Theater, and the Power of Poetry

1) ARE WE ALONE?
The idea of people all over the world using their home computers to scan radio signals for signs of extra-terrestrial intelligent life may sound like science fiction, but that’s exactly what’s been happening for the last fourteen years thanks to the Berkeley-based SETI@home project. Yet while the large-scale experiment hasn’t yet made contact, scientists aren’t deterred. Hear about the possibilities of life beyond our planet in a conversation with SETI@home co-founder and chief scientist Dan Werthimer, titled “Is Anybody Out There?” At Sutardja Dai Hall; noon-1 p.m., free.
