Real data. Real discoveries. Yours to make.

BREAKING · LAUNCH APPROACHING

5,502 Exoplanet Candidates
Await Citizen Classification

A new platform for citizen science is opening. Star Sailors turns real TESS lightcurve data and ESA mission feeds into daily games and interactive dispatches — and it needs readers like you to catch the signals automated pipelines miss.

No degree required. No telescope. Just your eyes, a daily ten minutes, and the understanding that real planets have been found this way before.

“Every planet found by citizen science
was missed by the algorithm first.”

FLAGSHIP · LANDNAM

Hunt a Real Planet, Then Run the Ship That Finds It

Landnam combines transit photometry with a crew management game. You classify a real lightcurve dip. If the community agrees it's a planet candidate, the narrative mission begins.

It's the only citizen-science game where your observation becomes the inciting event of the story.

COMING SOON · CORAL CLICKER

Species Identification From a Relaxed Puzzle Game

Coral reefs cover less than 1% of the ocean floor but support 25% of marine species. Coral Clicker takes survey imagery and turns reef ID into a calm daily game.

Your classifications contribute to population health monitoring used by real marine research teams.

SCIENCE DESK · WHY IT MATTERS

More Data Than Scientists Can Inspect Alone

Automated pipelines miss edge cases that human visual systems catch instantly. Transit signals buried in noise. Morphological features algorithms won't flag.

The Daily Transit exists because the data is real, the backlog is vast, and your ten minutes are worth something.
