This project has been live now for some time so maybe we could get more info about it please. The introduction page is a little vague stating only that we are helping astronomers in various areas by sieving through their telescope data. Is there anything specific they are looking for like asteroids, black holes, gravitational waves? On what scale is this project making a difference at the moment with around 100 volunteers? Do you feel that this project will stay rather small like Gaia or will different OS be supported in the future? Is it run by only one or two persons or is there more support in the background? Is it officially backed by ESA or is it a private project using their data? Milkyway, Asteroids and Einstein each have more than 3000 volunteers every day so there is room for more attention to Spacious. You know, that kind of things...
