Systems of Stars
Sir Patrick Moore for Galaxy Zoo
We have found out a great deal about the galaxies, but we cannot claim that our knowledge is at all complete, and there are so many of them that even classification is a problem. This is where Galaxy Zoo is so helpful. It has been organised by professional astronomers, and demonstrates yet again that in astronomy professionals and amateurs can work closely together to their mutual benefit. And – who knows? – while taking part in the programme you may be luck enough to make some unexpected and spectacular discovery. The universe, with its majestic star-cities, is indeed a wonderful place.
So here it is.... A place were people with the same passion share there knowledge and content about and images from the galaxy.
There is still the possibillity to join! Feel free and take the tour!
How to Take Part - Tutorial
Your job is very simple! All you need to do is look out for the features that mark out spiral and elliptical galaxies. In fact, as you're a human and not a computer, most galaxies should be easy to classify since they're obviously spirals or obviously ellipticals. On this page, you will practice classifying galaxies. On the next page, you will take a short trial to test your skills. If you don’t pass the trial, you can try again. Once you pass the trial, you can start contributing to Galaxy Zoo science!
