Each night, the giant ASKAP radio telescope catches the whisper of millions of galaxies. Thousands of volunteers help scientists pick apart this chorus. Their labels teach neural networks, and soon we'll have the most detailed radio map of the southern sky.

🎯 Radio waves pass effortlessly through dust, so radio telescopes find [tag:galaxy]galaxies[/tag] invisible to ordinary telescopes.

🎬 In Sagan's 'Contact', radio astronomers pick up alien signals; our project also 'eavesdrops' on the cosmos, but so far only hears the voices of [tag:galaxy]galaxies[/tag].
