Message from the researcher
For more than 15 years Galaxy Zoo volunteers have helped astronomers make sense of the beautiful complexity of galaxies in our Universe. We appreciate each and every one of your classifications.

Look at telescope images of distant galaxies.
Explore the sky. What will you find?
To understand how galaxies formed we need your help to classify them according to their shapes. If you're quick, you may even be the first person to see the galaxies you're asked to classify.
Learn as you go! Your classifications will be backed up by the work of others, meaning it’s not a big deal to get a few wrong.
With thousands of volunteers over almost two decades, we’ve classified galaxies observed by numerous telescopes, starting with galaxies imaged by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and including images from space and ground based telescopes and facilities run by NASA, ESA and other organizations. Join us to explore the latest galaxy images.
Our latest images come from the NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory, funded by the US National Science Foundation and the US Department of Energy’s Office of Science. Development was supported by the LSST:UK collaboration, and the Science and Technology Facilities Council.
