Who developed the computer software radio astronomers use to hunt for alien microwave signals in the SETI project (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence)?
In 1959, Drs. Philip Morrison and Guiseppe Coconni publish in "Nature" magazine the first modern SETI article, "Searching for Interstellar Communication," which indicated the potential of using microwave radio for extraterrestrial communication.

Well tex here`s the answer! Dr D. Kent Cullers, the NASA scientist who developed the computer software radio astronomers use to hunt for alien microwave signals in the SETI project (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence), has been BLIND since birth. Cullers heads the SETI Institute's Project Phoenix search of nearby Sun-like stars and has devoted most of his professional life to seeking evidence of life elsewhere in the Universe.
