Hi! I'm a HS science teacher on hiatus. I teach/taught physics and astronomy (I'm back to grad school to get a "raise," but plan on returning next year).
I used Galaxy Zoo as extra credit when teaching astronomy, and it seemed to impress on the students both the tediousness of actual scientific research and the exhilaration of seeing a picture of something no one else has seen before. It was a fun project for me, they got extra credit, and you had some more eyeballs on the screen - win/win/win!
I wanted to say thanks, and ask if you've heard much of other teachers using your citizen science projects in the classroom? This seems like such a logical use of your site, but no other teachers I met had done so.
Thanks again, have a good one!

What laws do you have to follow / choose to follow in non-western countries? I imagine things like LOS flying are not as important to you. Do you have internal procedures for flight ops?

I'm sure you've answered this in countless interviews, but I figured I'd waste your time here with a question. What artists have influenced your musical style?
I find Guster, Cloud Cult, and Barenaked Ladies similar bands, in that they all make me ineffably full of true joy when I listen to them. Keep it up!
