Public Access to Breakthrough Listen Data: Citizen-Science Computing and Open Archives from Green Bank Telescope and Automated Planet Finder

To the point

Researchers at Berkeley SETI and Breakthrough Listen publish telescope data for public use, support citizen science via SETI@home, and add data from the Green Bank Telescope and Automated Planet Finder to a public archive with progress pages and target spreadsheets, inviting engagement through social media and hands-on exploration, with contributions from Chris Schodt, Steve Croft, Matt Lebofsky, and Nathaniel Adams.

Public Access to Breakthrough Listen Data: Citizen-Science Computing and Open Archives from Green Bank Telescope and Automated Planet Finder

Data from the Berkeley SETI Research Center and Breakthrough Listen are made publicly accessible to invite multi-level participation, with Green Bank Telescope data flowing to SETI@home for a large citizen-science computing effort and data from the Automated Planet Finder and Green Bank Telescope added to a public archive (large volumes requiring specialized tools), while engagement is encouraged through social media, learning about the science and engineering, or exploring Breakthrough Listen public data for hands-on experience; spreadsheets detail objects already observed and planned for GBT and APF, a detailed target-selection description is available, observing progress for GBT, Parkes, and APF is shown on dedicated pages, and the techniques used to search for signatures of intelligent life are described on the next page, with contributions from Chris Schodt, Steve Croft, Matt Lebofsky, and Nathaniel Adams.
