Science Toys For Kids Of ALL Ages
Aug 8th
Almost every toy was a science toy first! Electricity, tops, yoyo’s, motors and light were at one time all brand new science inventions. Even today, toys follow soon after discoveries and inventions are applied to industry. You can find toys that use lasers, plasma physics, the latest robotics technology and embedded computers for a few tens of dollars.
Science toys come in several styles, and each has their own charm and benefit. Many toys are fully assembled, many science toys come in kits, and other toys are described in build-it-yourself howto science books. You can search for and select science toys More >
The Latest Scientific Inventions and Research
Jun 16th
There is always something new happening in the world of science. In fact, there are so many new scientific discoveries and inventions, that it’s virtually impossible to stay abreast of all the new information. Here are a few really cool new inventions that are under development.
- New research, funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), has demonstrated how flying beetles could one day be used surveillance purposes or for search-and-rescue and similar missions. Michel Maharbiz is trying to take advantage of the beetle’s natural abilities by melding insect and machine. The team has wirelessly controlled a giant flower beetle More >
Decoding the Science in The Lost Symbol
Dec 8th
The most vehement criticism of Dan Brown’s new book The Lost Symbol concerns the view of many reviewers that while the material about Freemasonry may be based on fact, the science is more akin to science fiction. Katherine Solomon, one of the main characters, is a scientist particularly interested in ‘mind over matter’ – the power of thought.
Brown makes it clear at the outside in a page entitled ‘FACT’, that “All rituals, science, artwork and monuments in this novel are real.” Nevertheless, a few of the more traditional scientists or science writers are already taking a swing at Brown for More >

Surface Science Engineering
Nov 22nd
Surface engineering is charismatically growing and highly acceptable science by a modern society. Few examples of such surface engineering are being commercially used in painting, designing, colouring, inks, interior house engineering.
The most attractive practice of surface science is noted in incarving few structures on human body surface like tattoo and several other designs are being frequently noted on the body surfaces. Increasing trends of such practices in society, especially among young generation, infer that the surface engineering has become a source of pleasure and satisfaction.
Probably there are many contributing factors for popularization of surface sciences. Number one factor is that More >
8th Grade Science Fair Project
Nov 10th
Any topic can be selected for 8th grade science fair project provided it uses scientific process. It is better to take the simple one, which is experimental in nature and not designing a model. The topic selected for an 8th grade science fair project should not be a replica of an already tried experiment. The original experiment should not be represented as such with out any change. The individual, who works on the topic, should have complete knowledge about the topic undertaken. The project or experiment, even if it is small should be focused and the demonstration should be complete More >
The Timeline of the Telescope
Oct 30th
It is actually quite easy to make a time line with regards to the invention of the telescope as well as how it has evolved over the years. Much has been written about the telescope and good records have been kept with regards to new technologies and inventions. Basically, the telescope time line looks something like this:
1609 – Galileo first invented the telescope. Though it was crude, it still did the trick and allowed him to look into space for the very first time other than with the naked eye. Galileo’s telescope was a reflecting one causing light to bounce More >
Tips on Low Cost Invention Prototyping and Small Volume Production Runs
Oct 26th
Introduction
The purpose of this article is to provide an outline on techniques that can be used to prototype an invention and make a small volume production run. This article will not cover the techniques in detail. There are multiple resources available online for each of the techniques mentioned in the article. Rather this article will show how to combine the techniques to produce a prototype and multiple copies. By using these techniques or variations, an inventor or entrepreneur would be able to make a prototype and multiple copies. In addition, by using the techniques I outlined in a previous article More >
