It'll open up a whole world of interesting stuff with you.

But the upshot is, like you said, this still continues today because this research at Green Bank, essentially, thanks to Frank Drake and others, gave birth to the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, or SETI.

And SETI is still performed at the Green Bank Telescope to this day.

I'm glad you brought that up, though, because I had heard of the Quiet Zone before.

I didn't know much about it.

But the thing that prompted this episode is one of our listeners, a guy named Andrew Phelps, he's a photographer with another photographer named Paul Kranzler.

They went to the Quiet Zone around Green Bank.

They basically made a photo documentary of life in the area.

Oh, cool.

And they named their book Drake Equation, and they sent us a copy.

So hats off to those guys for the book, for making the book and sending it to us.

I think if it was an astrophotographer, he'd be taking pictures of like auras.

I got to see that.

Make sure you figure out that guy's name.

Yeah, or people, if you can't wait, they can go to you, Chuck the Podcaster, on Instagram and look at who you follow and figure it out.

I follow you, too.

Yeah.

Thanks.

No, I really don't.

I want to say I should more, but I shouldn't.
