Micro maniac
Ever wondered what it would look like to microwave soap, wax crayons or even fairy lights? This virtual microwave lets you see the results without any of the mess.


DC generator action
A diagram showing a dc generator working, on which the frequency of ration is adjustable. The results are seen on an analogue meter, and an oscilloscope screen. Useful description of the commutator.

Exoplanet's atmosphere is laid bare
Scientists use a telescope and spectroscopy to analyse the atmosphere of an exoplanet.


Resistor color code
An animation of current flow through a resistor in which you can change the factors that are denoted by the coloured bands on the resistor and observe the results of your changes.


Newtonian Mountain
Shows cannonball projected off mountain. Different speeds produce different results. I particularly liked the "touch" when the ball completed an orbit and returned to where it left the mountain!


Diffraction of light
Historical background and online tutorials on diffraction in which you can vary wavelength and aperture width, and see the results as wave fronts, and as an intensity graph. Explanations include the ...


Bending Light
Calculation of the deflection of starlight expected due to bending of light close to a large mass, plus some observed results.


Galileo Project Information
A site containing details of the Galileo project and the results received in this mission to study the atmosphere of Jupiter.


Galileo Probe Legacy
Sets out the mission objectives and results from the Galileo probe, with some multimedia images and answers to FAQ's.

Von Neumann's 5th Postulate
