The Laser Teaching Center. Dept of Physics and Astronomy. Visit these web sites to explore optics and related topics. Last updated 22 June 2014. The Physics Classroom tutorial was written by Tom Henderson, a science teacher at Glenbrook South High School in Glenview, Illinois. Reading through the tutorial is great way to start learning about (or to review) physics and optics (start at "Waves"). Physics of Light and Optics. Optics in the News. Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD). APOD features an image wh...

Tourism in Antarctica
http://antarctica.kulgun.net/Tourism
Why take a trip to Antarctica? Antarctica has been the goal of explorers in recent times. I find that amazing, that the South Pole was only reached in my grandfather's lifetime! That the region of the coats where I did my first winter (the Windmill Islands) was not seen until my father life time! I was in the first 1000 people to see the night sky at the South Pole! There are a wide range of options for tourists wanting to go to Antarctica. There are 3 things that will shape your trip to Antarctica.

Emperor Penguins - Aptenodytes firsteri
http://antarctica.kulgun.net/Animals/Penguins/Emperor
Where to See Emperor Penguins. 100cm or 40 inches tall. 20 to 40kg or 45 to 90 pounds. Where to See Emperor Penguins. I think the only option for seeing an emperor penguin is to go to antarctica. A few tour companies do special trips specifically to see emperor penguins. You would need to contact some of these companies and find out if they have any such trips scheduled. Quark Expedition's seems the most likely company to have an upcoming emperor tour. Visit the Tourism Page.

Antarctic FAQ
http://antarctica.kulgun.net/FAQ
In the late 90s I maintained an Antarctic FAQ based on questions from schools. Somewhere along the line I lost it. Just this year I started answering questions from schools again and am going to re-build the FAQ. So here's your chance. Doing a school project on Antarctica and want to ask someone that has worked and lived there a question? Q What would happen if the snow melted? Why doesn't it melt? Q Why is it colder at the South Pole than the North Pole? Q How much snow does antarctica get a day?

Cyber Physicist:Questions and Answers
http://plasma.kulgun.net/FAQ
Some of the questions that people have submitted and their answers:. All things, to my knowledge, in physics, if "filmed" and the film run backwards remain credible. Most things in biology if filmed and the film run backwards are not credible. Are there any examples in physics of NON reversible causation? Some examples of irreversable actions include:. Dropping a bean bag (it doesn't bounce since all its kinetic energy is absorbed by movement of the beans). Examples of naturally occuring plasmas include ...
