What Makes A Galaxy Classified As Spiral Or Elliptical In Galaxy Zoo? In this informative video, we’ll take a closer look at how galaxies are classified in the Galaxy Zoo project. The classification process is fascinating, as it combines the efforts of volunteers with advanced astrophysical data. We will discuss the key characteristics that differentiate spiral galaxies from elliptical ones, focusing on their shapes, structures, and light profiles.

Spiral galaxies are known for their distinct spiral arms and disk-like formations, which allow for ongoing star formation. In contrast, elliptical galaxies present a smoother, more rounded shape and typically contain older stars with minimal star formation activity. Understanding these differences is essential for grasping the broader picture of galaxy formation and evolution.

We'll also explore how volunteers in the Galaxy Zoo project categorize galaxies based on visible morphology and the importance of light profile analysis in confirming classifications. This citizen science initiative not only enhances our knowledge of galaxies but also engages the public in meaningful scientific research.
