Disk Detective is the first NASA-led and funded-collaboration project with Zooniverse.[1] It is NASA's largest crowdsourcing citizen science project[2] aiming at engaging the general public in search of stars, which are surrounded by dust-rich circumstellar disks, where planets usually dwell and are formed.[3][4] Initially launched by NASA Citizen Science Officer, Marc Kuchner, the principal investigation of the project was turned over to Steven Silverberg.[5]
