Investigating How Type of Galactic Bar Impacts Bar Quenching

We are happy to announce the acceptance of the latest science team paper making use of Galaxy Zoo classifications (the image below is a link to the paper). Also see this list of all Galaxy Zoo Science Team Publications (which is mostly…

Here be SDRAGNS! Results from Radio Galaxy Zoo and Hubble’s Zoo Gems It’s taken a while to get this finished, but I am happy to say that our paper combining Radio Galaxy Zoo and Hubble data on the rare spiral galaxies with large double radio sources (also know…

New on @galaxyzoo.org blog (and on arxiv): spiral galaxies with large double radio sources (AKA SDRAGNs) from Radio Galaxy Zoo and Hubble Zoo Gems program. 🔭🧪 (gonna keep trying untiI I get this #astrosci thing right) blog.galaxyzoo.org/2026/03/14/h...

People power in action Zooniverse is a platform enabling citizen scientists to contribute to research, and it may just form the foundations of a new scientific community

Nice article (in which I am quoted) in A&G (from @royalastrosoc.bsky.social) on Citizen Science in Astronomy, and the impact of @zooniverse.bsky.social @galaxyzoo.org etc. academic.oup.com/astrogeo/art... 🔭👩‍🔬🧪

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…

Thanks for the heads up - fixed for now, but looks ugly. We'll notify @zooniverse.bsky.social that something needs fixing behind the scenes too. :)

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! 🔭

GZ Euclid This app was built in Streamlit! Check it out and visit https://streamlit.io for more awesome community apps. 🎈

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…

Euclid first data release The team behind the Euclid observatory released their first data yesterday, and Zooniverse projects and participants were especially prominent. Euclid’s mission is to make a map of the whole sky wh…

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...

Galaxy Zoo featured in first Euclid data release! We’re delighted to share that Galaxy Zoo (and you!) are featured in the first Euclid data release announced today! Back in August 2024, we launched an intensive Euclid campaign where 9,976 of…

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.

Massive thanks to the Zooniverse team for managing this difficult issue, and now everything is back up we hope you will enjoy better site performance going forward. Thanks again for all 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 🔭

You shouldn’t have to revert back to the old system! I think I haven’t filled it out from my office computer. Will check later 😊

Hmm, I will need to find a device I haven’t already filled out the form from! (It’s @vrooje.net )

Slow strong bars affect their hosts the most Hi everyone, my name is Tobias. I finished my PhD at the University of Oxford almost a year ago now, and I am currently a postdoc at the University of Toronto. I work a lot with Galaxy Zoo classificat...
