Milkyway@home

Milkyway@Home uses the BOINC platform to harness volunteered computing resources, creating a highly accurate three dimensional model of the Milky Way galaxy using data gathered by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. This project enables research in both astroinformatics and computer science. Recently our National Science Foundation grant was ended and $20,000 is needed to run the project for another year. Any donations over that will go to future continuation of the project. Thank you for your interest in helping us raise the necessary funds.
