You can get involved to help us learn more about our star and its influence on our planet. With exciting experiments happening during the total solar eclipse that will cross North America on April 8, to widespread investigations going on throughout the year, keep reading to find a project that\u2019s right for you.<\/p>\n<div id=\"\" class=\"hds-media hds-module wp-block-image\">\n<div class=\"margin-left-auto margin-right-auto nasa-block-align-inline\">\n<div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\">\n<figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-fit \"><\/figure><figcaption class=\"hds-caption padding-y-2\">\n<div class=\"hds-caption-text p-sm margin-0\">The dark band that runs from Mexico into Texas and all the way to Maine and Maritime Canada shows the path of totality for the April 8, 2024, eclipse. This is the area where people on Earth can witness a total eclipse of the Sun. Outside of this path, observers may see a partial eclipse, with the amount of the Sun being blocked by the Moon decreasing with distance from the path.\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"hds-credits\">NASA\/Scientific Visualization Studio\/Michala Garrison; Eclipse Calculations By Ernie Wright, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center<\/div>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Citizen Science (Also Called Participatory Science)?<\/h2>\n<p>NASA defines citizen science as \u201ca form of open collaboration in which individuals or organizations participate in the scientific process in various ways\u201d from collecting and analyzing data to making discoveries and solving problems. \u201dCitizen\u201d here refers to citizens of planet Earth, and these projects are open to everyone, regardless of country of birth or legal citizenship status.<\/p>\n<p>NASA sponsors citizen science projects across all five areas of research that it pursues: Earth science, planetary science, astrophysics, biological and physical sciences, and heliophysics. And yes, there are a few projects that are focused on the April 8 solar eclipse!<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What You Can Do<\/h2>\n<p>Depending which project you join, you might:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Observe and record in pictures or words natural phenomena like clouds, animal noises, or a solar eclipse.<\/li>\n<li>Learn how to recognize or classify patterns in data or pictures of a comet or solar jet.<\/li>\n<li>Learn how to build and use scientific equipment like radio telescopes or ham radios.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Your contribution may be a large or small piece of the picture, but what you do as part of a NASA citizen science project is essential to answering the research question or need that the project addresses. And while you\u2019re contributing to science, you might also develop new skills and make friends. You can read about some project participants \u2013 and what motivates them \u2013 in these profiles.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Projects<\/h2>\n<p>NASA citizen science projects related to the April 8, 2024, eclipse and solar science are presented in four groups below. <strong>You can see all NASA citizen science projects on <\/strong><strong>this website<\/strong><strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Use the tables below to find the project for you!

Participation<\/h2>\n<p>Many NASA citizen science projects start out with a straightforward, structured task, but that doesn\u2019t have to be where your contributions end. Some projects offer webinars or host regular video conference calls where enthusiastic volunteers can learn about and participate in the work that comes after data collection or classification. Hundreds of volunteers have become involved in deep ways. Over 450 volunteers have even been recognized for their contributions by being named as co-authors of scientific papers, which are the formal way in which scientists announce new discoveries and ideas.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>By Sarah Kirn<\/em><\/strong><br \/><strong><em>Citizen Science Strategist, NASA, at the Gulf of Maine Research Institute<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"\"
