Yesterday I was involved in a live chat with Chris Lintott and Rob Simpson from The Zooniverse. We used a Google+ hangout to video chat about recent Galaxy Zoo science (my paper) and also answer questions from members of the public on future plans for Galaxy Zoo.
You can view the whole chat (30 minutes) on The Zooniverse YouTube Channel.
The Zooniverse plans more of these events, so let us/them know what you liked about it and what didn't work.
"The strongest affection and utmost zeal should, I think, promote the studies concerned with the most beautiful objects. This is the discipline that deals with the universe's divine revolutions, the stars' motions, sizes, distances, risings and settings . . . for what is more beautiful than heaven?" - Nicolas Copernicus

365 Days of Astronomy Podcast - Do Bars Kill Spirals?
The podcast today over at 365 Days of Astronomy is "Galaxy Zoo 2 - Do Bars Kill Spirals?" by Chris Lintott and me. We had great fun talking about the first result from Galaxy Zoo 2 - that bars are more common in redder (deader?) spirals. Hope you enjoy listening to it (should be available later today).
You can read more about that project in my Galaxy Zoo blog posts about it.
I will also be interviewd about this by Darren Gamblen of Express FM 93.7 (local Portsmouth radio) this morning at 11.30am. You can listen to the segement at this link.
