TORRANCE TRIBUNE August 27, 2015 Page 9 Internet Investor Yuri Milner Commits $100 Million to Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence The Automated Planet Finder at Lick Observatory is searching for optical laser beams from extraterrestrial sources. Visit ucolick.org to find out more. foundation chairman Pete Worden. For the Breakthrough Listen program, UC Berkeley will build high-speed digital electronics and high-bandwidth signal processing instruments to gather and analyze the radio and optical data collected by the telescopes, and will train the next generation of SETI scientists, said Dan Werthimer, one of the leaders of the effort. Optical Laser Search Could other civilizations be using optical laser beams instead of radio for communicating? To answer that question, a significant part of the Breakthrough Prize Initiative will be the use of the Automated Planet Finder (APF) Telescope at Lick Observatory above San Jose, California, to undertake a new deep and broad search for optical laser transmissions from nearby civilizations. The APF is the newest telescope at Lick Observatory. It consists of a 2.4-meter automated telescope and enclosure, and the high-resolution Levy spectrograph. It operates robotically on every clear night of the year; its main emphasis to date has been on discovering and characterizing extrasolar planets. Looking Up Based on press releases from UC Berkeley and UC Santa Cruz, provided by Bob Eklund The Breakthrough Prize Foundation and its founder, internet investor Yuri Milner, have committed $100 million to a major escalation in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, or SETI. This is about five times the amount of money now spent worldwide on SETI. The foundation has contracted with UC Berkeley and other participating institutions for a project called Breakthrough Listen, the most comprehensive scientific SETI project yet. The Breakthrough Prize Foundation has already contracted with two of the world’s largest radio telescopes—the 100-meter Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia and the 64-meter Parkes Telescope in New South Wales, Australia—to devote major telescope time to searching for signals from other civilizations. The initiative was announced by Milner July 20 in London at The Royal Society, where he was joined by physicist Stephen Hawking, Astronomer Royal Martin Rees, SETI research pioneer Frank Drake, UC Berkeley astronomy professor Geoff Marcy and postdoctoral fellow Andrew Siemion, and With this new Breakthrough Prize Initiative, the APF telescope and its Levy spectrometer will search 1,000 nearby stars and 100 nearby galaxies for visible-light laser emission from technological sources. Lasers may be used by other civilizations for communication between their home planet and satellites, interplanetary spacecraft, or colonies on other worlds. Such laser emissions will be distinguished from the emission from astronomical objects by the extreme single-wavelength nature of laser emission, and by the unresolved point source (a dot in the sky) from which the emission originates. It may even be that the Milky Way contains a galactic internet of laser emission. If so, the APF may be able to eavesdrop on their transmissions. The overall program will include a survey of the 1,000,000 closest stars to Earth. It will scan the center of our galaxy and the galactic plane. Beyond the Milky Way galaxy, telescopes will listen for messages from the 100 closest galaxies. “We learned from the NASA Kepler mission that our Milky Way Galaxy contains tens of billions of Earth-size planets at lukewarm temperatures, any of which might harbor life,” said Geoff Marcy, Professor of Astronomy and Astrophysics at UC Berkeley. • City Council from front page they nailed everyone of those and I really appreciate that,” Mayor Furey said. “I think that going forward with the RFP, I look forward to it coming back in a rapid period of time so we can get what we asked for in July of last year and get our city moving in the right direction with regard to our website.” The RFP was sent to 44 vendors and a bidders list distribution site in order for the committee to evaluate their ability to meet the needs of the city along with the companies’ experience working with local cities. Of the 44 vendors, six were selected for their qualifications and include: Civic Plus, Manhattan KS; Civic Resource Group, Los Angeles; Civica Software, Newport Beach; CivicLive Inc., Toronto; ThinkLogic, LLC, El Segundo; and Vision Internet, Santa Monica. The committee approved the citywide web redesign RFP with four modifications, including: a modification to the payment schedule to improve finial distribution; provide additional explanation with regards to training; require cost comparison between hosted and not hosted designs; and provide a requirement to allow the embedding of Torrance Events Calendar to other websites. “The overall goal of the project is to design and construct a website that provides responsive government by improving service delivery, citizen satisfaction and employee satisfaction,” states the staff report. “The new website will include a new modern look and feel that markets the city, features activities, information and events and welcomes the community to easily locate information,” Councilman and Chair of the Ad Hoc Citywide Web Redesign City Council Committee Michael Griffiths said. “It will also use upto date technologies to allow users a better experience and allow staff an easier ability to manage the content.” • dba@heraldpublications.com public notices legalnotices@heraldpublications.com PUBLISH YOUR PUBLIC NOTICES HERE ABANDONMENTS: $125.00 ABC NOTICES: $125.00 DBA (Fictitious Business Name): $75.00 NAME CHANGE: $125.00 Other type of notice?
