So excited for this. If anyone wants to start experimenting with this data set in cool and open ways, I will personally fund your small micro experiments.

NASA's APOD is so awesome and that's just a picture, imagine all the potential fantastic content that's now available and what you could do with it.

Id also take you up on this. I have been doing data visualization using webgl, and developing a library. I'd love to see what i can make with this data.

Here we go! Also for anyone else who's interested in helping to fund these experiments.

As long as they are primarily working off the new tools, can be published/shared openly, and within $500 to $5k, then let's see what we can come up with!

That would be great how can i contact you ?

I will put up a call for proposals on Experiment.com (I am the founder), don't expect me to commit a lot, but between friends and colleagues, I'm thinking we could review many proposals and get a few exciting projects off the ground. This is a great excuse for me to get around to doing this, and doing it in a transparent and democratic way.
