t ELSS Library Science and Mathematics Page .Science : News Links Space If you're interested in satellites or astronomy, this site aims to provide you with all the information needed to observe; satellites, Mir and the International Space Station , the Space Shuttle , bright flares from Iridium satellites , as well as other spaceflight and astronomical information. (A commercial site .) This site is a collection of pointers to astronomy-related information available on the Internet. The database is maintained by the AstroWeb Consortium, a collaboration involving 9 individuals at 7 institutions . This virtual tour walks you through the observatory, right from the front gate, and provides ample links to different aspects of interest. The remainder of the site is dedicated to the scientific programs being undertaken at the observatory, and the history of the site, including many images. Physics A mission to preserve and make known the history of modern physics and allied fields including astronomy, geophysics, and optics. Discover information about: Learn about Collisions, objects that fall from the sky & those that stay there, rollercoasters, and the science behind making a shot in basketball ! From levitating frogs to spinning disks of spiralling fire, the American Physical Society puts physics front and centre. ~A collection of annotated links to physics sites organized by topic~ Light playing on water drops, dust or ice crystals in the atmosphere produces a host of visualspectacles - rainbows, halos, glories, coronas and many more. Find out where to see them and how they form. Then seek and enjoy them outdoors This site is all about snow crystals and snowflakes, and how these remarkably complex and beautiful structures appear, quite literally, out of thin air The visual appeal of fluids in motion -beauty & physics. This site offers a look into waves, vortexes, aurora, shock waves, condensation, and supersonic cars. Biology This site goes into some detail on all the areas that parasites wind up, including the eye, the heart and muscles, the liver, the lung, and the blood. The illustrations are generally images of the parasite in various stages of development. Beginner, intermediate and advanced versions of this site offer a simple choice for anyone hoping to learn about the human genome. The Canadian Medical Association Journal, a peer-reviewed international medical journal, provides free-online access to the complete editorial contents of the printed journal plus various extra online features. In developed countries, child mortality is now low, and maternal mortality a rare catastrophe - The hospital that performed the most beating-heart surgeries in central Ohio in 2001. Students are allowed to observe actual surgeries, and ask questions of the surgical team during the procedures. At the site, users are walked through a coronary bypass surgery, illustrated with video clips. These are low-res, but it is quite obvious - to those of us not hardened to the sight of surgeries while young - what it is we are seeing. - Produced by a German doctor, this site covers the history of the disease, diagnosis, therapies, epilepsy and art, famous epileptics, and recommended books. - The dangers of sleep apnea (more common than you think) and other sleep problems are discussed here, with advice about getting a better night's sleep. A comprehensive and reliable source of information on nutrition and dietary guides. - If it's health and/or biomedical information you're after, this site promises more than 130 links from which to choose, such as e.kidneys. com and e-histology.net. Topics run the gamut from personal care products to fungal infections to proteomics, organized under headings of Infections, Cardiology, Hygiene, Research, Women's Health, Endocrinology, Cancer, and others. Mathematics "Do not worry about your problems with mathematics, I assure you mine are far greater." Albert Einstein 1879 - 1955 Don't let the first page fool you. This site includes both elementary and highschool mathematics. A dynamic, global mathematics resource center available to students, parents, teachers and those who have inquisitive minds. An internet magazine published five times a year which aims to introduce readers to the beauty and the practical applications of mathematics. Whether you want to know how to build a sundial, how to keep your messages safe or what shape the universe is, it's all here. A Gentle Introduction to the Mathematics Subject Classification Schemes ~ includes the Tower of Hanoi ~ (MCF3M Series and Sequences) ~ for 11 & 12 Courses ~ All about the scares, scams, junk, panics, and flummery cooked up by the media, politicians, bureaucrats, so-called scientists and others who try to confuse you with wrong numbers. |
