Photographs of frozen methane bubbles under lake ice in Alberta.

Video explaining the process on a lake in Alaska. At about 1:15, they start setting it on fire.

Zooniverse has another crowd-sourcing project going: they need people to help transcribe specimen labels from botanic and insect collections (looks like there's an ornithological one in the works, too).

I've done a couple of the botanic specimens: you get presented with a photo of a specimen with a label. You draw a box around the label, and it enlarges it for you, then leads you though transcribing it one step at a time.

Go! Do SCIENCE!
