SETI and Space.Com

You may have heard of SETI - the Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence - an organisation founded in 1984 dedicated to seeking evidence of alien life.  It employs scientists carrying out vital research and enjoys the support of many others.

If you have read The Journeymen you will know a little about SETI, albeit a fictional branch, as I based part of the storyline and some of the main characters within SETI.  I'm sure it isn't the first fictional thriller that has had SETI as a back story, but I doubt there's a huge amount of books that have featured them either!

Anyway, if you have any interest in SETI or its work and you have a Twitter account you can follow SETI.  One of the benifits is that they send links to fascinating images from the likes of Space.com - the image below popped up on my phone this morning.  What a fantastic image!
