Sing More Songs of SETI
OSETI, OSETI.
OSETI Number 3:
We have come such a long way since that first one in LA.
Now it's Optical SETI for me.
Hail Charlie, hail Charlie.
Charlie Townes, all hail to thee!
For you showed us all the way. Now it is OSETI's day,
And it's interstellar lasers we see.
Stuart Kingsley, Stuart Kingsley.
Stuart Kingsley set us free.
Stuart Kingsley set us free from that Cyclops bigotry.
Now it's Optical SETI for me.
Thank you, Monte, thank you, Monte.
We all thank you, Monte Ross.
Thanks to you we understand just how narrow pulses can
Overcome interstellar path loss.
Cheap optics, simple optics
Like a Celestron or a Meade,
They do not have to be big for a good OSETI rig,
Now it's cheap photon counters we need.
OSETI, OSETI.
OSETI is for me.
And before I'll be a slave to the world of microwave,
I'll look up to the stars, and I'll see.
