I play around tonight taking the tutorial and test at Galaxy Zoo. Too COOL! Scientist recognize that humans are far more adept identifying patterns than computers (go figure). They are enlisting mere mortals such as you and I to map out the universe. After a short interactive introduction, you take a fun test. If you've paid attention, you'll pass. You're then qualified to help ID unknown galaxies far far away.
On another note, whoever created this video has time on his hands-- and a great sense of humor. I guess we need UFO debunkers along with galaxy identifiers, so the real UFOs don't lose credibility. Enjoy!
Me, I'm off to to check Area 51 Cam....
