Description:

On this West Virginia Morning, the Green Bank Observatory is offering a limited chance to go behind the scenes to check out its Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI). SETI tours are offered to small groups – ages 12 and up – several times a month through October. Maria Young caught up with the Observatory’s news manager, Jill Malusky, to find out more about the tours – and what exactly scientists there are looking for.

Also, a new study is shedding light on the need for more mental health resources for new and expecting mothers.

And, a developing industry is taking off with federal support.

Finally, text messages illegally using the West Virginia State Seal have been reported to the Secretary of State’s office.
