Crowdsourcing Helps Researchers with Spitzer Data
With the Public’s Help NASA’s Spitzer Telescope Sees Milky Way’s Blooming Countryside, SpaceRef
“NASA has released new images the Spitzer Space Telescope which it characterizes as showing “blooming stars in our Milky Way galaxy’s more barren territories, far from its crowded core” and the public, in part, helped NASA with these images.
The images are part of the Galactic Legacy Infrared Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire (Glimpse 360) project, which NASA says is mapping the topography of our galaxy.”
