Title : Awesome Astronomy Podcast Extra: Rewriting Hubble’s Tuning Fork

Link : www.awesomeastronomy.com

Description: In this podcast extra episode we talk to Karen Masters, Associate Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Haverford College, Pennsylvania about The Hubble Tuning Fork and Galaxy classification. But it’s not only about that canonised galaxy classification system; it’s also about how citizen science, astronomy done by absolutely anybody from their homes, can and do change the accepted wisdom and advance science.
