It's @Discovery #SharkWeek! DYK that @NASAHubble technology helps scientists identify whale sharks? The largest fish in the sea, whale sharks are surprisingly hard to find and identify, but by using a star-mapping algorithm originally designed for Hubble, it's possible to track and learn more about these elusive creatures.

Software programmer, the founder of @WildMeOrg, Jason Holmberg created a photograph database called ECOCEAN of whale sharks from photographers world-wide. Using the pattern-matching system originally designed for Hubble, the database helps scientists track whale sharks using the unique spot patterns on the fishes' skins.
