Description:
Within this use case you discover the shapes of galaxies and their classification according to the Hubble diagram. You are offered sequences of galaxies with different morphologies and are asked to order them. The morphological classification of galaxies is still in use even if we have discovered that the Hubble diagram "per se" has no direct physical or evolutionary meaning. Besides introducing the main shapes of galaxies, the use case offer a demonstration of the classification process, a fundamental tool of astronomers.
