This is to everybody on Galaxy Zoo, whether you live in the UK or not.
I'm not much of a scientist or astronomer, but I have made the discovery that zooites have a special gravity of their own - when we all met up, virtually none of us knew each other, but it was like meeting old friends. I would thoroughly recommend coming along to any meet-up you can, and if you're in a different continent, to see if you can arrange one with others living nearer you. I've therefore created this Index to help arrange further ones.
I'll keep updating threads for past, present and future plans. Feel free to start any. If you're too far for me to reach, I'm happy to help. I hope to meet lots more of you, and that those too far away can meet each other.
Here's a list of the ones ahead . . .
Sticky for general ideas - post anything here, wherever you are* Planned and organised - book yourself in! * RAS Picnic, 1st August 2010!!!* In the pipeline, details/actual go-ahead to be confirmed * Summer Get-Together at Marina's, East Sussex, UK South Downs Planetarium, near Chichester, UK* Discussions, hopes and ideas . . . * Possible Galaxy Zoo Holiday - observing centre or star party? US meet-up (with garret_cw as co-ordinator) Older US meet-up thread (probably redundant by now but you could always flick through it for ideas . . .)
