A few minutes ago a grey disk with an upside down Y in it showed up in my screen saver. I looked on the page that tells you what every thing is, its not there. Any one know what it is?

Grey Disk

You're crunching a WU from the search for binary radio pulsars in Arecibo data (ABP1). This comes with a modified screensaver showing the position of the Arecibo radio telescope as the grey disk you describe.

For more information on the new search look at the following threads:
Thread # 1,
Thread # 2
and at this press release.

A detailed description of the new screensaver will follow soon.

Cheers, Ben

The orange target marks the sky position of the current search template.
