Web edition: July 12, 2007 Although computer programs can be
written to sort galaxies into general categories, they would
inevitably throw out the unusual, the weird and the wonderful,

recognizing patterns, astronomers launched a site this week
recruiting the public to help identify spiral galaxies on sky
photos. Instructions are offered on the site. The first million
viewers are promised to see a portion of sky never before
witnessed by human eyes. Go to: http://www.galaxyzoo.org
