1. Either take a new picture of your galaxy or look in MicroObservatory’s archive for an image. Not all the galaxies assigned will be choices in the Guest Observer area. If you don’t see it, you will have to go to the archive. All the galaxies should be there. In fact, you will probably have many images to choose from.
