SETIQuest describes a concrete, open search pipeline: a 42-element Allen Telescope Array aiming for 350 dishes, instrumentation now ~15 orders of magnitude more sensitive than 1960, and fifty years of search equal to one 8-ounce glass of ocean. Data land in the cloud as 20–30 TB weekly, hosted on Amazon with a Cloudant-built SETI Cloud stack, Octave available for algorithm work, code published on GitHub, and citizen scientists can run new DSP algorithms or even trigger telescope follow-ups.
