	Science fiction on television - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Science fiction is one of the most eclectic and varied of all the genres of fiction.
		One of the stalwarts of science fiction television in its early decades was to be the anthology series, in which a completely new story would be presented with each episode, with new actors, settings and situations, the only link being the producers, genre and the series title.
		Science fiction's last attempt at network success was the short-lived show Firefly (2002), created by Joss Whedon (of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel fame), which ran on the Fox network and, while a failure there, proved incredibly successful on DVD, prompting the creation of a movie released by Universal Studios in September 2005.

	B and B: Science
		In case you weren't aware, her blog is one of the fifteen science blogs recently assimilated by Seed magazine's science blog borg named, fittingly, Science Blogs.
		It discusses some research on the state of science literacy in the United States, and, while the absolute numbers may not be anything to jump for joy at, the trends (in a few cases, at least) are in the right direction.
		The weekly Science Times is out and in it is another excellent article by Dennis Overbye, this time about the current state of string theory at 20 years of age.

		Science and You: George Santayana is famously quoted as saying "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." This website, created by Henry Mulder, plans to explore the history and philosophy of science in a down-to-earth fashion.
		Creative Science: In advance of setting up a national network of science learning centres in 2004, the Department for Education and Skills and the Wellcome Trust are offering funding to develop and pilot new and exciting continuing professional development (CPD) courses for science teachers and other science support staff in schools.
		Science Coursework: Jonathan Osborne, professor of science education at King’s College, London, recently claimed that the pressure to do well in assessment meant that coursework investigations were now being taught as a set of “receipe-like steps” that have little to do with proper scientific exploration.

		Two of the most important and most fascinating goals of modern science are to peer farther and farther out to the edge of the universe, and to look deeper and deeper into the structure of the human body.
		Modern science has established that semen is in fact a composition of different secretions which come from four different glands during ejaculation: the testicles, the seminal vesicles, the prostate gland, and the urinary tract glands.
		Modern science has just within this last century discovered that much of the mass of the universe is contained in the vast spaces between galaxies and stars (ignoring for the moment the possibility of 'dark matter' which would only make a stronger point).

		Their radiation, nearly all of which is emitted in the mid-IR, comes from stars in the process of forming and from dust clouds.
		Much of this star formation is obscured by dust and is invisible in the UV or optical.
		Spitzer should settle the question of how much star formation was obscured by dust and not seen in the UV or even in the visible.

		From the late 17th century until the late 19th century that vision of the cosmos was developed and filled in by what we now call "classical science".
		The achievements of this period have not been negated by the discoveries and theories of the late 19th and 20th centuries, but are now seen as accurate only with certain boundaries.

	Christian Science Foundation Compendium, Supplement No. 3
		It was with this spirit and commitment that the Compendium, "The Continuity of the Cause of Christian Science," was first issued in 1992.
		It may be noted that in the Deed of Trust for the Christian Science Publishing Society there is provision for such a time when her consent could not be obtained.
		After years of comradeship in Christian Science, working together to uphold the Branch or Society, and helping each other, church members are spiritually fitted for continuing demonstration in Christian Science, where "fetters fall" and "mental swaddling clothes" are laid off (see SandH 226:25-2 and 255:1-3).

	Amazing Science
		A particularly important development in the history of Indian science that was to have a profound impact on all mathematical treatises that followed was the pioneering work by Panini (6th C BC) in the field of Sanskrit grammar and linguistics.
		The science of astronomy was also spurred by the need to have accurate calendars and a better understanding of climate and rainfall patterns for timely sowing and choice of crops.
		This awakening was in part made possible by the rediscovery of mathematics and other sciences and technologies through the medium of the Arabs, who transmitted to Europe both their own lost heritage as well as the advanced mathematical traditions formulated in India.

	Case Study Collection - National Center for Case Study Teaching in Science
		Appropriate for an introductory astronomy or planetary science course, the case explores the physical and chemical characteristics of different types of meteorites as well as their different origins, in addition to the fascination and value they hold for the scientific community and collectors.
		The case was developed for a non-majors chemistry course and focuses on the science that underlies the controversy surrounding the sale of the herbicide atrazine in the U.S., together with the political and economic issues that impact this science.
		Intended for use in a college-level meat science, food science, or human nutrition course, the case could also be used in courses in environmental science, agribusiness, agriculture law and policy, biomedical, animal philosophy/well-being, and high school AP food science.

		The greater the shift in wavelength toward the redder regions of the spectrum, the more distant the object is. The extremely faint galaxy is so far away its visible light has been stretched into infrared wavelengths, making the observations particularly difficult.
		However, two intriguing properties of the new source are the apparent lack of the typically bright hydrogen emission line and its intense ultraviolet light which is much stronger than that seen in star-forming galaxies closer by.
		The Careers for KIDS Science Cards offer an impressive and informative description of exciting science related careers.
