During a lunchtime conversation in 1999, Bruce Allen and a friend were discussing an article that they read that day in The Los Angeles Times about SETI@home. The thought occurred that this would be a great way to supply computer cycles to tackle the data analysis problem that they had, but concluded that there would be very little public interest and the topic was dropped.

In 2004, the idea was revisited due to the upcoming event [[wikipedia:World_Year_of_Physics_2005|'''''World Year of Physics 2005''''']]. The American Physical Society offered publicity and volunteers and after eventually connecting with David Anderson, who spread the excitement of BOINC, Einstein@Home was launched in February of 2005.
