Your opinions about Einstein@Home
E@H is an interesting project - as GPB (Gravity Probe B) is. These kinds of projects keep the spirit of scientific investigation alive. We need to support and participate in these projects. We need to keep an active awareness about the results and consequences. We need to be cognizant of the different competing philosophical underpinnings which correspond to various approaches and perspectives in physics and cosmology. Facts are facts. It is how we interpret them that gives meaning and understanding.
