About
We have digitized the notebooks of the Harvard Computers and early Harvard astronomers including Williamina Fleming, Annie Jump Cannon, Henrietta Swan Leavitt, and many others. The goal of Star Notes is to link these notebooks back to their original source material: 500,000 glass plate photographs representing the first ever picture of the visible universe. Each glass plate is identified with a unique plate number. We need you to find and transcribe these handwritten plate numbers in the pages of the notebooks!
We need volunteers on Zooniverse to find and transcribe these handwritten plate numbers. This information will improve our understanding of the history of the Harvard Computers and the Astronomical Photographic Plate Collection. It will also will enhance understanding of the individual plates themselves being digitized through DASCH (Digital Access to a Sky Century @ Harvard) and allow researchers in Time Domain Astrophysics to better understand how the Universe is evolving.
