Astronomy
| We're continually reviewing new sites and adding resources, and appreciate your comments and suggestions. Suggest a link here |
| If you're looking for more astronomy sites, or have students who are,
this is the place for you! This is a huge reference set up like virtual
library shelves using a modified Dewey system. You can do word or
category searches and quickly find what you need. |
| Here you will find a very comprehensive, up-to-date resource on
extrasolar planetary systems. The systems are cataloged for your
convenience. Also available: a bibliography, information on meetings,
the latest news, and links. Available in English and French. |
| Princeton University has compiled a searchable (or browsable) database
of over 100 galaxies. A fascinating site with lots of great information. |
| A huge stock of images from the Hubble Telescope, with descriptive
text for each. A very interesting and informative site which helps users
see what the infamous telescope is really doing up there in the skies. |
| IPAC, the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center at CalTech,
offers a wealth of information here on Infrared light and Infrared
Astronomy. Included are historical information, definitions and links,
recent discoveries, a gallery, activities, Infrared images, and much more. |
| Because inquiring minds want to know. (Sorry, we couldn't resist.)
This site contains an excellent collection of science fact and science
fiction, making it a joy to explore. Teachers are encouraged to share
ideas for using the Guide in the classroom. |
| This actually is a collection of linked pages with Astrophotography,
CCD Images, and Aurora photos, plus an excellent collection of annotated
astronomy links. The images are wonderful and the exposition is
excellent: nebulae, galaxies, star clusters, comets, and don't miss the
Northern Lights shots from Alaska! |
| This site poses and answers a number of fascinating questions, like "can
a spider build a web in zero gravity?" It's a massive space flight
data resource you can spend hours exploring, and it has a challenging "Just
for Kids" section. |
| This is the ambitious project of the American School in Buenos Aires,
Argentina. The plan is to design and simulate a Mars Mission, and an
impressive amount of work has already been done and documented here. You
can learn about the mechanics, read the chats with space experts, and
take part in planning sessions. |
| This is an excellent resource for educators, with a teacher's lounge and
a kid's corner. |
| A visit to Meteor Crater in Arizona, a search engine, and 10 other
categories of meteor information make this a comprehensive meteor site.
|
| An overall directory of information and resources about the U.S. space
agency and its programs. A very content-rich and informative site, and a
great place to go when you're bored! |
| Coverage of both past and future missions, and when there's a current
one going on, you can find out who's on duty and what they're doing on
the space shuttle at any given time. Way cool |
| This project is an attempt to correctly identify the objects of the
New General Catalogue and subsequent Index Catalogues published between
1888 and 1908 as a collection of known nebulae and star clusters. This
site contains historical astronomy information, current findings, NGC/IC
puzzles you can help solve, and more. |
| This is a highly interactive site. You can "tour" the actual
museum by viewing a fair number of photographic images. Some of the
exhibits offer questions and answers as well as science
activities/experiments to try. Plan to spend some time visiting this
museum. |
| The Center offers information from NASA and other sources on
astrophysics, space physics, and solar physics, as well as lunar and
planetary data from NASA missions. If you want the hard science, here it
is. |
| Here at the NEMS website you can learn about... what else? Meteorites!
Look at pictures, learn the history of Meteoritics, take the quiz, order
the free catalog, and check out related sites. |
| If you're looking for information on the Northern Lights or the Land
of the Midnight Sun, this site, produced by Norway's first public
planetarium, is for you. |
