Season 2 of the MEGA dataset is now available!
Help us learn more about black holes by looking for merging galaxies in brand new data from the Webb Telescope!
Saznaj višeEffectively, we ask only two questions - what kind of galaxy is it, and is it interacting with other galaxies?

It's currently a subject of debate whether or not the largest black holes grow through the collision and merging of galaxies. With the release of the first surveys from the James Webb Space Telescope, we can search for merging galaxies at greater distances and lower luminosities than ever before. By finding these merging galaxies, and determining whether their black holes are growing, we can offer a new perspective on this debate.
The current data set comes from the MEGA survey, which is the largest and deepest mid-IR survey to date.
