Hands-On Universe (HOU) view detail comment email this

"Using the Internet, HOU participants around the world request observations from an automated telescope, download images from a large image archive, and analyze them with the aid of user-friendly image processing software." Requests require a teacher log in, but there is plenty of material here that does not require a password: astronomy activities, information about student discoveries, telescope images, student research papers, and curriculum support. From the Lawrence Hall of Science, University of California, Berkeley.

Some of the organisms include ants, earthworms, Madagascar hissing cockroaches, bulbs, and seeds. From the Lawrence Hall of Science, University of California, Berkeley.
