Current events have pushed many of us to dream about the world beyond our walls. To help ease that wanderlust, we’ve compiled a list of virtual #CitizenScience projects that let you globe-trot while staying safe and warm indoors. blog.scistarter.org/featured-proje…

Our volunteers are doing a great job tracing spiral structure! Our software has a much easier time measuring the arm winding of the tracing image (right) than the original image (left).

Spiral Graph volunteer David noticed that this unusual looking galaxy resembles something familiar. Should this be called The Michael Schumacher galaxy? This looks to be an elliptical shell type galaxy: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galaxy#El…

This project is perfect for REALLY getting away. Trace the spiral arms of galaxies like our Milky Way, astronomers and learn about these "island universes," including their supermassive black holes. Patrick Treuthardt, Ph.D. Spiral Graph scistarter.org/spiral-graph

I will be on the "Make it Count Monday" webinar at 7p ET on Feb. 15 talking about Spiral Graph and showing how it works. You can sign up here (bit.ly/3pdi1uc) and we can chat about why galaxies are awesome! 🌀🎉
