Redshift Wranglers have roped nearly 8,000 galaxies! The project is now on its 3rd data set, and more data is on the way.<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

About one year ago the\u00a0Redshift Wrangler\u00a0project first asked you to help examine \u201cspectra\u201d of distant galaxies. These spectra are diagrams that show how much light we receive from them as a function of wavelength.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSince launching on May 30, 2023, we have reached almost 2,000 volunteers joining our project.\u201d said Coffin. \u00a0\u201cTogether we have made over 143,000 measurements on 11,100 galaxy spectra!\u201d<\/p>\n

When you join Redshift Wrangler on Zooniverse, you learn about how astronomers use these spectra to look back in time. These data help reveal the rate at which the galaxies are forming stars, what their chemical compositions are, and how their central supermassive black holes behave. The goal is to assemble a timeline of galaxy formation. There\u2019s still much more wrangling to do!<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re continuing to prepare new, exciting data for Redshift Wrangler,\u201d said Coffin. \u201cYou can expect better resolution data coming in the next round, and you can look forward to seeing spectra from space telescopes like the Webb Space Telescope in the future as well!\u201d<\/p>\n

So come help make the project\u2019s second year an even bigger success at\u00a0 \u00a0No lasso necessary!<\/p>\n

This work is also supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF).<\/p>\n
