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

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 disc galaxies having a bar. Bars are also thought to influence their host galaxies in all kinds of fun ways (e.g.

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 them on Galaxy Zoo. These classifications will help scientists answer questions about how the shapes of galaxies have changed over time, and what caused these changes and why.
