First, NASA furnishes a fabulous tutorial about the big bang theory and the evolution of the universe (1). Visitors can discover the foundation of the big bang theory, the observational tests, and the limitations and extensions of the theory. The second website, developed by Maxine Phaisalakani at the University of Toronto, introduces in a slide show presentation research that led to the discovery of the expansion of the universe (2). The site addresses many astronomical concepts including the big bang theory, dark matter, and the Doppler Effect. Next, The Online Journey Through Astronomy offers educational materials about studies leading to the discoveries of distant galaxies and the expansion of the universe (3). The website supplies two short animations illustrating the formation of the universe. The fourth site, created by PhysicalGeography.net, provides an online chapter about the past, present, and future of the universe (4). Students and educators can find links to a useful glossary and a list of additional readings. Next, PBS presents a timeline of the universe from the Big Bang to the future (5). This interactive website offers concise introductions to many of the key developments of the universe including the formation of elements, the earliest life forms, and the dark era. At the next site, the physicist, Patricia Schwarz, presents numerous animations, illustrations, and text dealing with the Big Bang Theory (6). Users can learn about the observations and knowledge that provide the framework for the theory. Next, Meta Research discusses hypotheses and assumptions about the big bang theory and the expansion of the universe (7). Visitors can find out why some scientists have qualms with the theorized phenomenon. Lastly, CNN provides an article about a group of Australian scientists' findings of a new string of galaxies that could challenge the big bang theory (8). Visitors can learn how scientists use computer simulation models to test astronomical theories.

Fossil Fool Down Low Glow

Fossil Fool Down Low Glow 08/20/2004 12:50 PM

Oh good, rice for bikes! While ostensibly the Down Low Glow from Fossil Fool is for safety, I think we all know what the real purpose of these kits are - to siphon money away from filthy Burning Man participants and/or gangbangers. But whether you're caked in dried mud or just the shame of your own personal style choices, the Down Low Glow can be yours for just $100.

Or you can spring for the two-light set for $150. Might as well.

Car Shaped DVD Player

Car Shaped DVD Player 03/24/2005 04:51 AM

This Sports Car DVD Player made me guffaw for a couple seconds, then I realized something dreadful: it costs 250 pounds, or "too many" American dollars. Sure, it has a 5" LCD, plays DVDs and MP3 files, and even has a front bumper as a DVD tray. I even recall seeing something along these lines at The Sharper Image or an equally gimmicky establishment, but I don't remember if it actually had a screen or not. Also, this player is "so cool it's almost frozen!" Now I have to buy one.

Sanyo's Pin-Shaped Battery

< img src="http://www.gizmodo.com/gadgets/images/sanyo_battery.jpg" alt="sanyo_battery.jpg image" width="200" height="138" class="border right"/>Sanyo has announced a new shape of battery called "pin" style. Shaped a sort of like an thinner AAA battery, the "RU665" is a rechargeable lithium ion cell intended to be used in MP3 players, wireless headsets and pretty much anything else in need for a small(er) battery. At half the volume of AAA and a quarter the volume of AA, expect a capacity of 120mAh and voltage of 4.2V from this series set to be introduced summer of this year.

Ladybug Shaped MP3 Player

Ladybug Shaped MP3 Player 04/08/2005 10:39 AM

Add "ladybug" to that list of bizarre MP3 player shapes. Evergreen Corporation releases 128MB and 256MB models of the player, which are polished to look like a real ladybug. The spots aren't just for show, either — those are the buttons you use to control play, pause and so forth. They're somewhat crappy as far as MP3 players go, with support limited to 256kbps playback and USB 1.1 transfer, but that's not a huge deal given the 256MB limit of space. They will play music for about 5 hours after recharge by USB.

Undecagon-Shaped Abit PC

Undecagon-Shaped Abit PC 04/15/2005 09:59 AM

If you've longed to own a computer case that looks just like a module from the International Space Station, look no further. The 3XS ACON Isotope PC, made by Abit, provides you with a 3.2GHz P4, ATI X700 Pro, and 1GB of RAM. I think it'd be something of a personal struggle against the temptation to roll it back and forth across my desk, eventually rendering it a tangle of wires and PCB, but for $1,500, it's the first undecagon-shaped case I've seen. And so, you see, you get a piece of trivia along with a decent system from Abit.
