Galaxy Zoo opens its doors!

Know your elliptical from your spiral? If you haven’t already visited the Galaxy Zoo then you should fly on over to find out all about it. It’s a great project to classify thousands of galaxies, from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, using the power of the Internet and it needs your help in doing so! You can be contributing to some real science whilst looking at some pretty cool pictures. Here’s a little spiral galaxy I found this afternoon!
