Oct. 18th - 2:30 pm - 3:55 pm (85 minutes) - My group and I went over the project’s wiki and I created a login name and password for it. Screenshots of the wiki can be found on page one of the Example Works section of my log. - 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm (60 minutes) - I created my Galaxyzoo.org account. Afterward, I proceeded to complete the initial quiz on typing galaxies available on the website, which I passed with 100%. After, I began to type the galaxies on the website. Again, screenshots of Galaxyzoo.org can be found on page two of my log’s Example Works section.

Oct. 20th - 12:05 pm - 3:25 pm (200 minutes) - During this time, and the time spent for my next three logs, I practiced typing galaxies on Galaxyzoo.org.

Oct. 24th - 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm (120 minutes) - See Oct. 20th

Oct. 30th - 9:00 pm - 10:00 pm (60 minutes) - See Oct. 20th

Nov. 4th - 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm (240 minutes) - See Oct. 20th

Nov. 13th - 12:05 pm - 1:00 pm (55 minutes) - Mr. Spuck taught me how to find specific galaxy types in a deep space image taken by the Hubble Telescope. This exercise was meant for practice only; we had to pick out two to four examples of each galaxy category and from that data, we had to create a spreadsheet compiling it all together. - 1:00 pm - 1:40 pm (40 minutes) - The team met with Mr. Spuck and discussed our trip to the AAS Conference in Texas.

Nov. 27th - 12:30 pm - 1:40 pm (70 minutes) - In this hour and ten minutes, I learned, from Mr. Spuck, how to go in and rename the Hubble Images we will be working with. We need to rename them so we can easily find which sector of the galaxy they are in. An example of my work can be found on page three of my Example Works pages. - 4:00 pm - 5:10 pm (70 minutes) - During this session, I managed to finish my Hubble Image spreadsheet, which can be found on page four of the Example Works section.

Nov. 30th - 12:45 pm – 1:40 pm (55 minutes) - I started renaming image files taken from the Hubble Telescope during this session. First though, I had to learn how to do it. Along with this time slot, the next four are also applied for renaming.

Dec. 1st - 6:50 pm - 12:00 am (310 minutes) - See Nov. 30th

Dec. 2nd - 12:00 am - 12:35 am (35 minutes) - See Nov. 30th - 11:30 am - 2:00 pm (150 minutes) - See Nov. 30th - 7:00 pm - 8:15 pm (75 minutes) - See Nov. 30th - 8:30 pm - 11:30 pm (180 minutes) - During this time, I started preparing my log sheets for the AAS Conference.

Dec. 3rd - 12:30 pm - ( minutes) - I worked more on pulling my log together and becoming more organized.

Hi Cale - this is Luisa ... are you sure you're working with Hubble images? And here's another question to get you thinking. You noted that you're renaming the images to figure out "which sector of the galaxy they are in". How big are all of these images you're working with? Are they the size of, say, a quarter held at arm's length? or a pea? or a sheet of notebook paper? (bonus question: how big are Hubble images, on the same scale?) --Rebull 15:39, 4 December 2007 (PST)

UPDATE ON WHERE TO POST FOR THE POSTERS

--DanielleYeager 09:57, 5 December 2007 (PST) [the following was a post of Spucks that I copied and pasted here for you so you have access to it.]--Spuck 11:55, 4 December 2007 (PST) These are great ideas ... keep them coming. Also we have a knew location in the WIKI for posting ideas for the 2008 AAS Wiki poster ideas and work items. SO, please post at the AAS Wiki Poster Page in the future. Thanks. [end]

You should be going through the wiki, now that you are becoming more familiar with its features, and identifying pages or sources that you think are highly beneficial that you think should be going onto the wiki. You may post them on this thread, simply remember your titles.

UPDATE IN HOW TO POST PLEASE READ

--Dani 10:53, 4 December 2007 (PST)When posting, rather than typing your name and time, simply click the icon above the Subject/Headling square that looks like a squiggle. It is the second icon from the right. Click that before you start your post, it will post your name date and time for you. and then at the end of the post, simply type [end]

--Amccool 12:00, 4 December 2007 (PST)Hey this is my first time posting am I doing it right? Um as far as progress I am working on renaming the images that did not get burned to my disc correctly, I am also trying to finish my outline of chapter 14 and then begining chapter 15 to complete my hours. If this post looks ok please let me know. [END]

--Amccool 12:05, 4 December 2007 (PST)Me again Dani do you want me to post every single thing that I have done with Spitzer in here to show my hours? [end]

--Jbutchart 16:52, 4 December 2007 (PST) My flash drive is being retarded, I'm trying to load everything on here but it's not working. I'm going to continue taking notes on chapter 14 & 15 soon. I clicked that squiggly thing. I hope it works. [END]

I figured since we were talking about this in Mr. Spucks room yesterday, we could use it on here. Going to upload my notes to the Wiki tomorrow.

--Dani 07:24, 5 December 2007 (PST) Your posts look great. I assume you're starting to pick up fairly well how to operate the wiki? ALEXIS - You do not need to type up your entire log sheet, but if you wish to have it on here, you may do so. JENNIFER - Good use of graphixs! Deffinatly try to do graphics in paint to have visuals along with the notes. [end]

--Cale 09:36, 5 December 2007 (PST)

Dani---I dont know what to post. i guess i could post more of my logs...but there arent that many more. HELP!

--DanielleYeager 09:54, 5 December 2007 (PST) You just need to post about the progress you are making. What exactly you have accomplished, what gave you trouble, any little tips or anything you have. Take a look at both Jennifers and Alexis' posts. It's not as if your life depends on what you post, just let us know what it is you have done, how you did it, so on and so forth. [end]

--Cale 10:10, 5 December 2007 (PST) So i finally finished renaming the renaming messes that were made. ugh. It was tedious, but im glad that its done.
