"Explania! Watch hundreds of animated explanations, interactive tutorials and instructional videos,"

"Through inventiveness and breakthrough science and the use of existing technology that allows us to do more with less resources. Add an economic driver to this combination and you have cleantech."

"NASA's Kepler mission has discovered 11 new planetary systems hosting 26 confirmed planets. These discoveries nearly double the number of verified Kepler planets and triple the number of stars known to have more than one planet that transits, or passes in front of, its host star. Such systems will help astronomers better understand how planets form."

"The question in astrophysics was what could have generated the current. This experiment demonstrated that such asymmetrical shockwaves could do the job."

"An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by the flow of electric current. The magnetic field disappears when the current is turned off. Electromagnets are widely used as components of other electrical devices, such as motors, generators, relays, loudspeakers, hard disks, MRI machines, scientific instruments, and magnetic separation equipment, as well as being employed as industrial lifting electromagnets for picking up and moving heavy iron objects like scrap iron."

"A rocky exoplanet about the size of Mercury appears to be evaporating before our eyes. If confirmed, this would be the first time a rocky planet has been found turning to gas, demonstrating just how wacky alien planets can be. The provocative suggestion may also foreshadow the fate of Mercury."

"Welcome to The 12th Annual National Storytelling Week Sat 28th Jan - Sat 4th Feb Welcome to the world's widest vistas, in the country of the mind, on the rivers of the tongue. Here is the moment and all time; here time disappears. Come to the place that is... and isn't, more than so many times. Where in the end as light fades on breathe and gathers silence there is only the sound of a sigh and the "Wow" factor."

"Circus Physics is a series of eight short videos. Each of the videos features a circus act that demonstrates a basic principle of physics. Each video clip is accompanied by text and image explanations. "

"Physics 10: Physics for Future Presidents - Fall 2006. The most interesting and important topics in physics, stressing conceptual understanding rather than math, with applications to current events. Topics covered may vary and may include energy and conservation, radioactivity, nuclear physics, the Theory of Relativity, lasers, explosions, earthquakes, superconductors, and quantum physics."

"Football, frogs, and far far away Our favorites of the week"

"A Plethora of habitat websites and activities"

"present scientific data. "Present" here meaning the more general "display in some form, be it a talk, a poster, a paper, or just a graph taped into a lab notebook," not specifically standing up and doing a PowerPoint talk"

topics covered will include physics, politics, and pop culture, with side trips into various aspects of life in academia, and other things that I find amusing or interesting.

Watch the ball toss in the video below. Obviously Agile Justin throws like a robot, kind of sidearm/underhand, not much like a major league pitcher. The coordination between arm, torso, and wheels gives new meaning to the term "pitching mechanics."

"Art-inspired storytelling. Storybird reverses the process of visual storytelling by starting with the image and "unlocking" the story inside. Choose an artist or a theme, get inspired, and start writing."

"The Early Universe Toward the Beginning of Time "

"You aren't being propelled around the track by a motor or pulled by a hitch. The conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy is what drives the roller coaster, and all of the kinetic energy you need for the ride is present once the coaster descends the first hill.. "

"Zaz Staheli. The National Geographic Show "Alaska Wing Men" is in its second season now, and features the 24-year-old Kiana pilot, along with a number of other wing men from around the state. Staheli is the only female pilot featured this season, making her place in a field historically dominated by men. "
