Galaxy Quest is an engaging deep space edutainment exploration game. It combines gamification with the power of citizen science to process large amounts of data generated by the Hubble telescope.

• Hubble currently generates 844 gigabytes of data per month.
• Hubble is only one of the many telescope satellites that will be orbiting the earth.
• James Webb Space Telescope will be launched in March 2021.
• As optical technology evolves, and space technology becomes more affordable, our vision is that there will be more imaging sources available generating data.
• Processing and classifying all these data is a hard unsolved problem that requires many approaches.

Introducing Galaxy Quest, an immersive, space exploration game that leverages the analysis capabilities of citizen science to:

• Help process and identify elements that require human eye for classification.
• Help train a deep neural network for future automation.
