1 Million Human-Annotated Galaxy Images Unlock Secrets of Galactic Evolution

A groundbreaking dataset, “Galaxy Zoo Evo,” comprising one million human-annotated images of galaxies, has been released, marking a significant advancement driven by citizen science in astrophysics.

This extensive collection was meticulously compiled through the efforts of numerous volunteers who classified and detailed the shapes and features of galaxies observed by telescopes. The dataset empowers researchers to conduct unprecedentedly detailed analyses of galaxy evolution, formation processes, and their interactions within the cosmos.

Submitted to NeurIPS Datasets and Benchmarks in 2025, this project exemplifies the power of human-AI collaboration in dissecting vast scientific data, paving the way for innovative approaches in astronomical research.
