You can actually contribute to man's understanding of space by participating in several projects;

Galaxy Zoo;
How do galaxies form?

Moon Zoo;
Explore the surface of the Moon
We hope to study the lunar surface in unprecedented detail.

Solar Storm Watch;
Study explosions on the Sun
Explore interactive diagrams to learn out about the Sun and the spacecraft monitoring it.

Planethunters.org

Find planets around stars
Lightcurve changes from the Kepler spacecraft can indicate transiting planets.

And, The Milky Project;

How do stars form?
We're asking you to help us find and draw circles on infrared image data from the Spitzer Space Telescope.

My favorite is Galaxy Zoo. You look at small areas of a picture taken by either Hubble or the Spitzer telescopes and by answering a few questions determine different qualities of a 10 billion year old galaxy. Can't get any kewler than that! Real time and real live science!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please check it out.

For the trolls, all galaxies were creates 6,000 years ago and there is NOTHING to fear but science itself!
