BoxCar 2D VS Zooniverse

I remember "playing" BoxCar2D[1] for hours as a kid, unfortunately Flash has done away with it. Looks like there have been some JS-based spiritual successors though[2]. 1. http://boxcar2d.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

Have you ever seen http://boxcar2d.com/? It requires Flash so it probably doesn't work anymore, but it used genetic algorithms to "design" a 2d car to travel over bumpy terrain.

It's not NASA, but check out zooniverse.org if you haven't already. They have a rotating series of projects where you can get involved analyzing all sorts of things. Right now one of them is identifying distant galaxies to help measure dark energy. Source: 10 months ago

You make a good point about volunteer work, when I had nothing else to do I started volunteering on zooniverse.org to keep busy.
