 * Alien Juice Bar: ** (level 4-8) [] - Learn about acids and bases while serving aliens in a juice bar, another wonderful activity by Lawrence Hall of science.


 * Absolute zero: ** (level 6-12) [] Students get a sense of scale with this Flash Interactive of absolute zero and absolute hot.


 * Atom Builder and Crystal viewer: ** (level 8-12) [] Build a carbon atom out of quarks and electrons with this Flash Interactive from PBS. On the same page, find links to view and manipulate a diamond crystal.


 * Chemistry Animations from UK ** : (level - high school) [] - Mostly Flash Animations of all the following: Acids and Alkalis, Atoms, Bonding, Chemical Reactions, Hydrocarbons, Metals, Particles and Solutions, Periodic gable Rates of Reaction, Rocks.

** Interactive Periodic Table: **** (level - middle to high) [] **

** MINOS far Detector ** : (level - middle to high school) ** [] MINOS ** (or ** Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search **) is a particle physics experiment designed to study the phenomena of neutrino oscillations produced at Fermi Lab and beamed to the large detector 735 km away in northern Minnesota. This is pretty impressive, once the students understand that what they are seeing are tracks of actual neutrino particles detected from space in real time.

** On Fire: ** (level 6-12) [] Explore the basics of combustion, how a fire starts, how the molecules rearrange in a fire and what a flame is made of.
 * Sources of Radiation: ** (level 6-12) [] Learn about sources of natural and man-made radiation, and their effects on life with this PBS site.
