National Volunteer Week

Stateside, April  21-27 is National Volunteer week.  Thanks to the collective efforts of 826,026 people scattered around the world, a heck of a lot of scientific research has occurred that otherwise would not have been undertaken.  don’t know about you, but I think that’s pretty mind-boggling.

Whether you make one classification or 10,000 classifications, each Zooniverse volunteer furthers the cause of getting science done.  It’s nice to know that we’re all in this together.

Well, I’m feeling inspired.  To celebrate National Volunteer Week,I’m going to do some classifications on one of my favorite projects, Cyclone Center.

Thanks again for your efforts.  Keep clicking!

Awesome!  Since I started writing this post the number of Zooniverse volunteers has hit 826,049.
