The Zooniverse community keeps growing. This time last year, we passed 500,000 volunteers – and now there’s nearly 740,000 people out there, clicking, classifying and contributing to science via their web browser. To celebrate we’ve produced a great poster showing how the Zooniverse has grown from 2007 to the present. Down the PDF here.
Long may she reign!
Reblogged this on Alaskan Librarian and commented:
How many people is 740,000? Almost 20,000 more than the population of Alaska, or 0.24% of the United States population.
The Zooniverse is enabling a lot of good research with just a handful of people. Think of how much more they could do with more people. Then pick out a project or two and start contributing!
