We haven't posted in a long time, we apologize for that. Too many projects, too much to do...
However, today we discovered Galaxy Zoo. We registered, took the tutorial, took the trials (we passed the first time, answering 14 of the 15 trials correctly the first time) and then began our Galaxy Analysis.
Our first time we "discovered" this rather bizarre image of Galaxy/Object # 588588017627219230750017627219230750 . It could be a just a blur. So we searched the FAQ and the Blog. Didn't find anything. So we contacted team@galaxyzoo.org and left an email regarding the object 588588017627219230750017627219230750 . We expect that it is a blur and don't expect to be contacted. Still, it is an interesting experience and a great blog.
We apologize for not being able to post the photo/image here. We have asked for permission. The image on the Galaxy Zoo website is much better than that seen on Sky Server Object Explorer. If you would like an email with the Galaxy Zoo photo, contact us here.
How did we find Galaxy Zoo? By reading this story on several websites (Yahoo, MSNBC...) today: Amateur astronomer spies gassy "cosmic ghost". For more info link to: Hanny's Voorwerp (Wikipedia). And: Galaxy Zoo discoveries (Wikipedia). And: Galaxy Zoo (Wikipedia). Note: We did a flickr search for Hanny's Voorwerp - no results.
