Citizen Science with NASA

Did you know that NASA has several projects going on that rely on help from people like you?  In fact, more than 500 "citizen scientists" have been named as co-authors in scientific publications due to their contributions to NASA's research!  There are currently 43 collaborative projects underway.  You can read about all of them and how to contribute here.  You should also follow @DoNASAScience on X and @DoNASAScience on Facebook.  Here is a sampling of some of the projects.

NeMO-Net
NeMO-Net is a single player iPad game where players help NASA classify coral reefs!  Anyone with a cell phone or laptop can do this project.

Mountain Rain or Snow
Did you know that most weather stations can't tell if it's raining or snowing?  The best observation method is still the human eye!  This project relies on reporting from eye witnesses to support better weather resources and forecasting.  Anyone with a smartphone can do this project.

Landslide Reporter
Landslides occur in all environments and can cause sudden and unexpected damage.  Report landslides to NASA and help their scientists develop a predictive model of where landslides are likely to occur.  Anyone with a laptop can do this project.
