Calling all citizen scientists

Do you love science but never had the chance to go to university?

Are you an amateur astronomer but dream of making a contribution to space research?

Well, today is your lucky day, we present to you the Milky Way Project.

After a quick 5 minute tutorial on how to use the interface, you can start identifying objects such as Star clusters, Galaxies and bubbles. It’s amazing to think that you are actually helping scientists catalogue and discover new objects.

Are you ready to become a citizen scientist? We know we are.

Oh but it doesn’t stop there either, they have other projects you can help out with too. How amazing is the world we live in that we can do this without qualifications, Love it!!
