SETI Institute’s Allen Telescope Array was shut down a while ago, and alien hunters around the globe were left in bitter disappointment, with news of the array being shut down doing the rounds. For those who’ve been hoping to make contact with extra-terrestrial life all along, we’ve got some exciting news for you! Having had its plug pulled off due to shortage of funding, with Paul Allen’s (Microsoft Co-founder) $30 million investment going dry, the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) array is now ready to plug back in! The Allen Array required $200,000 to hop back on track, and with funds pouring in from about 2,300 people, this one will continue its search for alien life forms soon!
