How to Use a Telescope - Reflector Telescopes an Introduction
By: John B. Mayall | 18/08/2008
Telescopes are of two main types – reflectors and refractors. The fundamental difference between both types is the kind of glasses used for light collection. Refractors use lenses while reflectors use mirrors. Going back to school physics, it is obvious that light from distant bodies, like celestial objects, comes at us as a parallel beam. Due to this parallel nature of the light rays, reflector telescopes use parabolic mirrors.
Chempedia.com: Now and Then. It’s Almost Useful…
By: ChemStudent | 18/08/2008
A couple of months ago I came across Chempedia.com, apparently a “a free and continuously-updated online” encyclopaedia of chemical compounds. So I checked it out, only to find a very basic layout, minimal information about a minimal number of compounds. And so it was pushed to the back of my brain with all the other millions of crappy websites I’ve had the displeasure to find whilst mindless browsing the interwebs. But after surfing back over there randomly this week I things have changed...
Physicochemical Properties of Metakaolin-lime Pastes at Different Calcination Temperatures of Kaolinite Clay
By: Mahmoud Taher | 18/08/2008
The study of metakaolin-lime hydration process is of great interest in the field of building materials technology.This study aimed to investigate experimentally the physicochemical properties of pastes containing metakaolin (MK) and lime as activator. MK was produced by calcining Kalabsha kaolinite clay (Aswan, Egypt) at different calcination temperatures 700,800,900 and 1000 oC for 2 hr. Five mixes were prepared by partial substitution of MK by 5,10,15,20 and 25% wt CaO ( from CaCO3) by weight,
Scientific Misconduct: How Much Does it Actually Happen?
By: ChemStudent | 18/08/2008

The Top 5 Chemistry Lab Injuries/deaths of All Time!
By: ChemStudent | 18/08/2008
OK, not the most normal of all the Chemistry related topics I usually post on. But it was brought to my attention whilst watching a documentary a few days ago about reaching ‘Absolute Zero’, that compared to other scientists, Chemists usually get it bad in the whole injuries/deaths thing. It’s very unusual that a Chemist will be shot or have something kill them instantaneously; they usually suffer long and painful deaths…

How Do Telescopes Work - Building a Telescope of Your Own
By: John B. Mayall | 12/08/2008
Constructing a telescope by oneself is not too difficult if the levels of enthusiasm for the task are just right. Of course, the whole idea also hinges on the type of telescope one has the intention of creating. If it is a simple device that one wants, something that is the simplest form of a telescopic instrument, then it is an easy task. However, for an instrument that is capable of allowing the user to explore the skies, then considerable more effort and investment will be required.
