Some of the information is free and some you have to purchase. HOWSTUFFWORKS This is an awesome site that explains how everything works. There is a massive section that covers all you need to know about science including life science, innovation, engineering and nature. There is also a great section with a complete scientific dictionary. SCIENCEDAILY This excellent resource covers energy, bacteria, nuclear energy, physics, astronomy, space and time, chemistry, nanotechnology, quantum physics and lots more. This is probably one of the best on our list and a resource that covers everything related to science. SCIENTIFICAMERICAN If you want to know all about evolution, space, biology, physics, neuroscience, and chemistry then you need to take a look at Scientific American. You can read their excellent blog and even subscribe to their magazine that goes back to 1845! SMITHSONIANMAG This awesome resource covers human behaviour, space, the cosmos, how humans developed, science and the mind and body. There are hundreds of articles that cover everything from new medications to 'what's the point of ear wax?'. The amount of information they cover is amazing.

PHYSICSCENTRAL This isn't the best looking website but it covers everything to do with physics. We really love the 'ask a physicist' section where you can ask any question you want and get a real answer from an expert. You can also search through hundreds of scientific articles. AAAS.ORG This is a useful resource for neuroscience related information, news stories, conservation, space, planets, social science, conservation and human development and a whole lot more. SCIENCENEWS This is also high on our list as one of the best science website online. There are numerous articles posted daily and there isn't any area of science that isn't covered. NOVA If you want to know about Space, science, flight, evolution, nature, physics, technology, engineering, ancient worlds, maths and a whole lot more then you should take a look at Nova. There are over 400 videos that you can watch and you can also take a look at their daily blog too. NPR.ORG This is an awesome resource where you can get basically everything you will ever need to know about science, energy, Space, technology and also get up-to-date interesting facts and information all related to science.
