Good online reads :)

I sit down at my laptop with a cuppa and I have a few favourite sites where I read.
I find science interesting, I like the background and the wide ranging scope of it all.

Thought this, and other folks links, might make a good thread.

The Scientist - Science News, Educational Articles, Expert Opinion

Your guide to the most essential developments in life sciences

I love reading these articles. I just read the one about paeleolithic climate change, and the disapearance of neanderthals and other homonids, facinating.

New Scientist has been very good for as long as I've been on the internet.

Then the Nikkon Small world galleries are well worth a look through. Not a read as much as just good galleries of electron microscope/microscope and so in pictures.
Nikkon Small World.
Thats all I can think of right now

Those photographs are superb

I've been looking for one I read a while ago about people living through the depression in America, couldnt find it though but I did find the 100 photos gallery by Time magazine with one of the photos I remember from it. Click on the pics for the stories.
Be aware that they're not all sweetness and light so some of the pictures and stories are harrowing.

Right now I'm checking out science information and research papers/articles. I'm twenty years out of university but I'm applying to do a PhD. I'm probably mad for that but anyone know good science sites especially materials, physics, engineering, chemistry is certainly be interested. Got to get the brain back into the right mindset again in case I get the job.

Great post Mary,
I occasionally delve into https://www.ancient-origins.net/
They have some interesting articles on a variety of historical periods that I generally do a bit research on for further information. Cheers JFW

Fraser Cain sends an email with details of the lastest posts.
I have never been spammed by him, so am happy to recommend this.
