~~'''~~Project Discovery~~'''~~ is a "citizen science"—participation in scientific research by the lay community—project within EVE Online. A collaboration between CCP Games, Reyjavik University, the Human Protein Atlas, and Massively Multiplayer Online Science, Project Discovery is used to characterize the structures of cells, using players' identification skills, and will help scientists identify proteins within human cells. Because of this, playing Project Discovery helps scientists understands how human cells are built.

A brief tutorial and introduction to mechanics is present in the game.

In-game, the [[~~Sisters_of_Eve|~~Sisters of EVE]] run Project Discovery for capsuleers to assist in identification of [[Drifters|Drifter]] biological samples.

In-game, the [[Sisters of EVE]] run Project Discovery for capsuleers to assist in identification of [[Drifters|Drifter]] biological samples.

In addition to the above scientific participation and benefits, capsuleers also gain benefits within EVE Online. Each slide submitted results in a small amount of ISK - determined by your accuracy rating, with an accuracy of 50% conferring 50,000 ISK per slide, minus corporation tax - as well as Project Discovery-specific Analysis Kredits with the Sisters of EVE.
