Finally, I’m really excited to share some amazing artwork created by our talented volunteer A.J. Raab! A.J. created these three illustrations inspired by Redshift Wrangler, which can be found on our new talk Community Creations talk board: zooniverse.org/projects/jeyh…

👽✨ Happy World UFO Day! 🚀 While we haven’t found a extraterrestrial neighbor (yet), YOU can help scientists search the skies for signs of life and clues about the early universe! 🔭🌌 Last year, we found Percival — an exoplanet in the habitable zone — through observations contributed by volunteers on Planet Hunters TESS (a @DoNASAScience project!). Real discoveries, made possible with your help! 🌍🪐 No telescope needed. Just curiosity. Get involved now with these projects: 🔹 Are We Alone in the Universe? — Join UCLA SETI’s mission to search for signs of intelligent life in our galaxy. 🛸📡 scistarter.org/are-we-alone-… 🔹 Redshift Wrangler — Help decode ancient light from distant galaxies to understand how the early universe evolved. 💫📸 scistarter.org/redshift-wran… @planethunters @RedshiftWrangle @UCLASETI #WorldUFODay #CitizenScience #UCLASETI #RedshiftWrangler #SpaceExploration

🎉 Citizen Science Month 2025 was OUTSTANDING! You showed up, logged millions of Acts of Science, had fun, and helped scientific research projects around the world make real progress. Here’s what we accomplished, together. Score another one for humanity! Thank you! 👏 And get ready for April 2026— start exploring at CitizenScienceMonth.org! @IFLScience @DiscoverMag @NSF @DoNASAScience @NC_CoCoRaHS @the_zooniverse @MooreFound @europeancitizenscien @AAPSciences #OneMillionActsofScience #CitizenScienceMonth #CitizenScience #CommunityScience

Finally, we’ve just designed some new Redshift Wrangler stickers, and we’d love to send them to you. We’d also love to connect with new and existing Redshift Wranglers, so we will share stickers with anyone who writes a post on our site!

Happy Birthday, Redshift Wrangler! Since launching in May 2023, ~2,000 volunteers have helped make more than 143,000 measurements to help astronomers look back in time and study galaxy formation. It’s exciting work worth getting roped into! Get wranglin’: go.nasa.gov/4eqa3Jd

Cool Citizen Science project! There are lots of galaxies - over 100 billion of them 🤩- to analyze - let’s get started, @RedshiftWrangle! 🌌 🎨 – at Logan, UT
Help make discoveries in #space! @NASA and @RITscience unveiled project @RedshiftWrangle to study the spectrum of #colors 🌈 from #galaxies. Volunteers - A.K.A. citizen scientists - can join in gathering information about the #universe @DoNASAScience bddy.me/42hADNn

So excited to announce that our @cosmosastro Redshift Wrangler Citizen Science Project (@RedshiftWrangle ) has launched today! This effort has been 3 years in the making. We can't wait to see what discoveries everyone makes!
Today we’re launching 🚀 Redshift Wrangler, a project using the light from distant galaxies to look billions of years back in time and place galaxies on a cosmic timeline ✨ zooniverse.org/projects/jeyh…

As a Redshift Wrangler, you will make important measurements using our data from state-of-the art astronomical facilities on the ground and in space, like the Keck Observatory and the Hubble Space Telescope! 🔭

In Redshift Wrangler, you will be identifying features in galaxy spectra that help us calculate redshifts, or distances, of distant galaxies and helping us check the quality of fits to our data to determine important galactic properties and help us improve our methods.
