Well it's that time of year again, its inevitable, school had to start sometime. To help start the school year, I have found the best sites to help you with questions you might have on science. These sites can help you with homework, reports, or science fairs. Remember, these sites are not there to do your homework, but to help you with topics you are having a hard time comprehending.

If you are looking for specific information on a science subject, try a site that specializes in that field. Many college sites have students and professors who will help you with topics that they are doing research projects on. Remember the first step in the scientific process is "ask a question."

Ask an Astronaut Get answers to your questions from astronauts who have been there. Each month a different Astronaut will be answering your questions. Additional information for those who would like to do reports on Astronauts.

Ask the Astronomer This is the place for questions about astronomy and space science, with over 3000 questions already answered.

Ask Dr. Math I would be a little skeptical of a site that answers math questions, but Dr. Math teaches you how to do problems and understand math concepts, not how to do specific problems for your homework. If you find yourself struggling with concepts, don't hesitate to ask Dr. Math. All levels of math are covered.

Ask Dr. Universe Dr. Universe has a new question every day and featured questions change once each week. If you would like to see if your question has already been answered you can search the site.

Ask a Scientist or Engineer Kids of all ages can write in with their questions on any science topic. The great thing about this site is you don't have to go through hundreds of questions to see if your question has been answered, you can use their search engine to find your information quickly, saving you more time for your report.

Ask a Scientist If you love biological sciences this site is for you. From basics to complex subjects such as; genetics, molecular biology, immunology, and more. This would be a good site for those of you who may want to start thinking about this years science projects.

Ask a Volcanologist Here you can get answers to your questions or use as a resource to help you with reports or science projects. The archives are full of excellent information to help with ideas on what topics you may want to learn about.
