Guest Chris_W Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Does anyone on here help with the space projects on the zooniverse site? Has anyone tried the new space warps project? If so what do you make of it. Seems they are rather rare to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz Type-R Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I have helped out on there before but not in a long while, last thing I did was help to catalogue galaxy types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perkil8r Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Interesting, not seen this particular site before. Link for those wishing to learn more about it and maybe contribute. https://www.zooniverse.org/ I'll pin this thread as I think it may be of interest.

xanthic Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I've done some of the Mars stuff. Not been back for a while. It amazes me that even now, the human brain is much, much better at pattern recognition than any computer system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawson Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Yes, i did some mars stuff too. I thought i'd found something really interesting but they got back to me and said it was well known about; it seems not only the whole surface is projected in the project but also repeated at different magnifications. Fascinating stuff. I remember when i let my computer do stuff for seti, but i got fed up of it running in the back ground looking for LGM.

Guest Meteoriot Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I love that website. Although I don't get enough time to go on much now. It's nice to be able to say that my data helped contribute to the discovery of 69 new exoplanets!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Meteoriot Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Only a tiny part, but a part nonetheless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
