    Thumbs up Hey, who else is doing the GalaxyZoo thing?

    I just signed up for it, passed the trial, and am now an official GZ analyst, whatever the hell that means (probably not much). It is cool, though!

    I'm just wondering if anybody else on BAUT signed up and who is QC'ing this whole process.

    Added: I just did a bunch of them. Ooof, some of them were tough! I made my best guess. :shrug:

    I did it for a couple days when we had some downtime at work. It was pretty cool, but I agree that some of those are really tough. Hard to distinguish between Elliptical and Spiral when all you have are 14 pixels that are magnified to the point of being a shapeless blob. And figuring which direction the spiral is turning? Forget about it
