The Zooniverse team has received a new grant from the Alfred P Sloan Foundation – to help find what we don’t even know we are looking for…! The Zooniverse is the world’s largest citizen science platform where projects combine human and machine intelligence to identify ‘interesting’ activity whether that’s out in space or here on Earth. The grant will allow the team to develop tools designed for serendipity that can be used across many Zooniverse projects.
Founder of the Zooniverse, Professor Chris Lintott, shares more on the Zooniverse blog.
