NASA — http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/    What can I say, probably the best science site on the web. The amount of information available in this site boggles the mind. Just the NASA Image of the Day (right) is enough to bring you back time after time.

NASA Science — http://science.nasa.gov/     Great website! This website is a component of the Science Mission Directorate (see below). Checkout the Science News link (http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/) for the latest information about the Universe. Outstanding photographs and news articles from various NASA resources.

The Science Mission Directorate (SMD) engages the Nation’s science community, sponsors scientific research, and develops and deploys satellites and probes in collaboration with NASA’s partners around the world to answer fundamental questions requiring the view from and into space. SMD seeks to understand the origins, evolution, and destiny of the universe and to understand the nature of the strange phenomena that shape it. SMD also seeks to understand:
     1. the nature of life in the universe and what kinds of life may exist beyond Earth;
     2. the solar system, both scientifically and in preparation for human exploration; and
     3. the Sun and Earth, changes in the Earth-Sun system, and the consequences of the Earth-Sun relationship for life on Earth.

Web 2.0 Tools — Web 2.0 Tools are a category of Internet tools and technologies created around the idea that the people who consume media, access the Internet, and use the Web shouldn't passively absorb what is available; rather they should be contributors, helping customize media and technology for their own purposes, as well as those of their communities.
