This document outlines the stages of the Milky Way Project, a citizen science project where students will analyze infrared images taken by space telescopes to help classify different astronomical phenomena. In stage 1, each small group will research a topic related to infrared astronomy. In stage 2, each student will post a response to their assigned topic. In stage 3, students will independently classify a minimum of 10 infrared images from the Milky Way Project website, justifying their classifications. Finally, in stage 4 students will post a reflection on the importance of citizen science and how this project relates to their chemistry coursework.
