SCIENCE OF EVERYDAY THINGS - Website Links
Cosmology & Scientific Method - this is a link to a newsletter which stems from the NASA
program briefly talks about how science, its theories, laws, and methods, influence space.
Defining Science - Dr. Ronald Matson, Professor of Biology at Kennesaw University gives
a brief, yet educated look into how one can explain what a scientifc law and theory are and
gives several proposed definintions of his own.                                                                  
Hypothesis, Theory, Law, & Model - In common usage, the words hypothesis, model,    
        theory, and law have different interpretations and are at times used without precision, but
in science they have very exact meanings                                                                        

Science Defined - this is a website which neatly breaks down basic material, proponents,
and bullets concerning what makes a scientific hypothesis, theory, and law. Its is made in
such a way as to be a quick easy reference.                                                                  .
SCIENCE OF EVERYDAY THINGS - UNIT 2 Websites
3D Design- Ever wonder how 3D movies, art, or even pictures worked? Here's a brief look into how it works.
Space in 3D - here are some sample pictures taken of Mars in 3D display. See what you can see in these awesome images.
What is Color? - for all of those people who love science and are fanatics when it comes to color, here is a web page for you. It is sciientifc paper describing color as a science and what is behind this phenomenon.
Medicinal Color - here is a webpage which might give an insight into colors and their affect on people whether for negative or positive influences. You might find these interesting.
SCIENCE OF EVERYDAY THINGS - UNIT 3 Websites
Water Explained - Ever wonder what happens to water when it becomes hotter? What makes it freeze? This site is for all you science nerds.
Simulator - Here's something cool... play with the speed and temperature, size and more with this fun website.
Vaporization of Water - here something cool... watch water freeze on contact with cold air!
Atomic Animation - Here's just something cool. This is a simulation of electron forces on a molecule.

SCIENCE OF EVERYDAY THINGS - UNIT 4 WEBSITES
Heat Transfer - The following is a demonstration of the proper and effective usage of the Silicone Heat Transfer Compound. You will need Flash player to view the demonstration.
Heat tranfer - Here's a down-to-earth site describing and giving visbile demonstrations of heat transfer.
Heat Videio - Here's an old but still very viable way of explaining heat transfer.
This clip shows the three ways that heat energy moves - conduction, convection, radiation or any combination of these. From a 1944 US government film on refrigeration.
Make your own - Short experiment demonstrating how a cloud forms by using compression and decompression.

SCIENCE OF EVERYDAY THINGS - UNIT 5 WEBSITES
Watch them Grow - here's what happens you put marshmellows into an air tight chamber and suck all the air out.
Toilet Paper gone airborne - Don't try this at home, if you do however, make sure you ask the parents before subjecting children to loud noises for the future of science.
What is it? - A general basis for what pressure is. This website includes several demonstrations located at the bottom of the site as well.
Ballons + Liquid Nitrogen? - Don't do this at home. This demonstrates the ideal gas law (PV=nRT) which states that a drop in temperature with fixed mass and external pressure will result in a smaller volume, and vice versa.

SCIENCE OF EVERYDAY THINGS - UNIT 6 WEBSITES
Try it yourself - Here's a neat interative science demo which illlustrates Archimedes Principle
Chart - Here is an easy chart which explains the basics of Archimedes Principle.
Animated Flow - An interactive demonstration of Bernoulli's Principle.
A Cool Experiment - Here's an experiment you can try out (Bernoulli's Principle)
