Go here and start catagorizing pictures of galaxies.
Just as a note, you may or may not be the first human to ever see the galaxies you see ever.
It's kinda fun, actually.

I still have yet to actually look at that site XD The poor quality of the photos kinda turns me off even though the idea is really cool. (and yes i know it'd be hard to get good quality pictures and that's not the point but w/e)

I spent a couple of hours doing the first incarnation, it was... eh, kinda interesting, yeah.
If you feel like donating some brain cycles to science but galaxies aren't your thing, you could also try
folding some proteins. Not saying you'll be the one to find a cure for cancer, but it's certainly a much more down-to-earth enterprise than Galaxy Zoo
