Eve Online has started the next step in their 'Project Discovery' a tool which allows players to analyze scientific data in return for in game items. Players can look at light curves for stars which have been gathered with the COROT spacecraft and look for planetary transits which may have been missed by previous analysis. There are a number of scientific problems where humans continue to demonstrate superior analysis capabilities over computers, and project discovery provides a way for scientists to harness a thousands of humans to help with their data processing. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFkCfvY-2es

NASA makes data available from the international space station, which means that when Nauka took the rest of the station for a spin we had telemetry. A few people have tried to produce visualizations of the spin, but I think many of these are wrong because they're trying to translate the rotations using Euler angles which run into singularities near the poles, and the spin carried them close to these regions. The correct data source would be quaternions which don't suffer from singularities, and are available from ISS data sources.
