Overview

The Breakthrough Listen Project and the Green Bank Observatory are sponsoring the North American Breakthrough Listen Community Workshop to be held October 5-6 2016 at the Green Bank Observatory in Green Bank, WV.  

The Breakthrough Listen project is the largest SETI initiative in history and is conducting searches at radio (in part using the Green Bank Telescope from 0.3 -- 100 GHz) and optical wavelengths.  The workshop will discuss the goals, strategies and capabilities of the Breakthrough Listen project, to share ideas for commensal and ancillary science opportunities, and broadly explore the search for extraterrestrial intelligence in the modern era.
