AFP 2012-05-22 16:26:19 Famed US alien seeker shifts gaze back to Earth
This undated handout image provided by the nonprofit SETI Institute shows astronomer Jill Tarter. After decades spent scanning the heavens for signs of life elsewhere in the cosmos, Tarter is stepping back, and letting a colleague take charge of the quest. Tarter, whose alien-seeking efforts inspired the Hollywood film "Contact," announced May 22, 2012 that she is stepping down as director of the nonprofit SETI Institute to focus on raising money to keep the effort going. The institute, its name an acronym for "search for extraterrestrial intelligence," scours space for radio waves or other signals.
