Abstract: There are many citizen science projects that undergraduate students can participate in using an eVscope. Unistellar, with the support of SETI, accepts observations from eVscope users around the world and analyzes their data to produce novel scientific results. This talk will mention some of these successful projects and describe how easy it is to get undergraduate students, who may be novices in astronomy, to participate in a worldwide collaborative group that often concludes with their names listed as authors on professional papers. Successful measurements of comets, supernovae, asteroid occultations, and exoplanets have been taken, as well as, artificial satellites, asteroid orbits, and spacecraft.
