Hi all,
With all of the constant cloud cover I've been looking fo something else to play with. A minor distraction has come my way from the team that put together Galaxy Zoo. It's called Planet Hunters and you get to look over the data from the Kepler mission looking for signs of extra-solar planets. It's not spectacular imagary but it's still neat in a very nerdy way.
Also been playing with another one (Milky Way Project) that does use beautiful images from the Spitzer Space telescope. I've attached one of the images I analysed.
It's not quite the same as playing with a 'scope but I'm getting deperate.
:P
