As technology evolves and its inner workings increasingly disappear from view, replaced with solid-state parts hidden by glass, aluminium and plastic, our understanding of what makes the world operate is similarly impeded. When machinery from just a few decades ago is viewed a world of moving parts, linkages, cogs and levers is revealed. These mechanical objects contain an inherent beauty and inspire curiosity in ways that modern devices with their pristine surfaces and simplified design language do not. Opportunities to explore devices from the past open our eyes and lead us to new questions of how our devices function, how machines do the jobs we need them to do and how engineers solve problems.

"Create an imaginary landscape with NGAkids JUNGLE. Mix and match the animals, control the weather and lighting conditions, or construct flowers, trees, and plants. An "AUTO" button generates random compositions, so you can sample program options and experiment with special effects as a starting point for your own designs. This Shockwave interactive is intended for children of all ages. To begin, just click one of the menu pictures above. JUNGLE is inspired by the paintings of French artist Henri Rousseau. Learn more about the artist's work, or plan to see Henri Rousseau: Jungles in Paris, a special exhibition that will be on view at the National Gallery of Art from July 16-October 15, 2006. "

Stellarium is billed as a "planetarium for your computer." And it delivers. It's free (and open source) and delivers a catalog of over 210 million stars, as well as realistic views of space, providing one of the most awe-inspiring experiences in this roundup.
