Astronomically good game!

Ever since school I've been interested in astronomy. Even before when my old physics master Dicky Dyson took a group of us one evening to gaze at the moon through a very significant telescope. It seemed as detailed as those images we now see quite frequently on HD television. It was entrancing. Well there is a new game and its one all of us can play. At http://mergers.galaxyzoo.org/ there are a sequence of simulations of galaxies colliding and you choose the best match with an actual collision.  How the universe has grown since my childhood. Back then there was the Andromeda galaxy and maybe (it seemed) a handful of star clusters.  There was, perhaps, an inkling that there were quite a few galaxies, but hundreds of thousands? More to the point millions of them colliding? Enough so you could make a passable representation of the alphabet? Believe it or not this game is actually helpful to our understanding of the universe.

Enjoy the game
