So I guess this is along the same lines of Folding@Home and SETI except this one is looking for solar bursts rather than little green men or whatever that Folding@Home one is for (can never remember, is it to find a cure for viruses?).
Isn't Folding and SETI totally automated, i.e. they just need CPU power? It seems that the Stardust and Solar ones are looking for human processing time...
