LSST: from Science Drivers to Reference Design and Anticipated Data Products

Željko Ivezić, +312 more
- 15 May 2008 - 
TL;DR: The LSST design is driven by four main science themes: probing dark energy and dark matter, taking an inventory of the solar system, exploring the transient optical sky, and mapping the Milky Way.

Galaxy Zoo: morphologies derived from visual inspection of galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

TL;DR: Galaxy Zoo as mentioned in this paper provides visual morphological classifications for nearly one million galaxies, extracted from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), which was made possible by inviting the general public to visually inspect and classify these galaxies via the internet.
