Profile: curt2

Your personal background.
My name is Curt, I'm 17 and I come from London, UK. I'm currently a 6th form student, studying physics, chemistry, maths and economics. I really hope to get to a good university next year to study physics or maths; still not 100% sure. I also "participate" in the great Mersenne prime search and seti@home.
Your opinions about Einstein@Home
I run Einstein@home (sounds strange saying that aloud) because I believe it is perhaps even more important than similar projects like seti@home; although searching for gravitational waves may not seem as romantic as seti, detecting these is vital to our understanding of the universe; even from my very limited physics knowledge, I know that gravity and general relativity are still central to modern phyics.
