Galaxy Zoo science team virtual meeting this morning - hearing about work towards getting Rubin images ready for classification, and a side project on identifying overlapping galaxies like @ngc3314.bsky.social #astrosci

Looking for bars in faraway galaxies Hi all! My name is Tobias Géron, I'm a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Toronto. I've been using Galaxy Zoo for a few years now to study bars in galaxies. Bars seem to be very common structures in the present-day Universe, with roughly half of all…

Announcing the Galaxy Zoo JWST project! We are thrilled to announce the launch of the Galaxy Zoo JWST project, with ~300,000 galaxy images from the COSMOS-Web survey taken with NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)! We now need your help identifying the shapes of these galaxies by classifying…

Alyssa’s work can currently be seen in Galaxy Zoo, as we classify cutouts of the stunning images she made of the CEERS JWST Survey’s NIRCam pointings. We often make our own images for the project, but hers were so beautifully made that we knew we should use them instead! 🔭

Loving the Euclid @ec-euclid.bsky.social galaxy explorer tool by Mike Walmsley. Thanks to the @galaxyzoo.org volunteers for all this work! euclid.streamlit.app 🔭🧪

Galaxy Zoo in Japanese この度、Galaxy Zooは日本語でも参加できるようになりました（すでに中国語、フランス語、スペイン語、ハンガリー語、そして英語で利用できます）。ボランティアの翻訳者である @InoSenpai (イノ先輩)に感謝します。これで、本プロジェクトを日本語話者にも広めていけるようになりました。 We're delighted to share that Galaxy Zoo is now available in Japanese (in addition to Chinese, French, Spanish, Hungarian and…

More on our Galaxy Zoo Euclid work in Daily Zooniverse today @zooniverse.bsky.social daily.zooniverse.org/2025/03/20/e... 🔭

Some more context on our involvement @ox.ac.uk and @zooniverse.bsky.social in yesterday's @esa.int Euclid data release - it's so cool that citizen science results from volunteers around the world were so prominent: www.ox.ac.uk/news/2025-03...

We’re delighted to share that Galaxy Zoo (and you!) are featured in the first Euclid data release announced today! Read more: blog.galaxyzoo.org/2025/03/19/g... 🔭

Most of the science team is assembled in Bern this week to work hard on getting the rest of JWST images into the site, and also to do some science with the classifications.

All Zooniverse webpages, including Galaxy Zoo are down due to a major system issue. The Zooniverse team are working hard and hope to have this fixed and restored by Sunday.

A classic valentine from longtime volunteer @penguingalaxy.bsky.social

We are live with images from Euclid! Visit galaxyzoo.org and you might be the first human to ever see the images we need your help with 🔭

We love a smooth galaxy whose light started travelling to us when our sun wasn't even a glint in the Milky Way's eye!
