Discover the why behind the world around you. Our lessons make complex ideas simple, from the tiniest atoms to the vastness of the cosmos. Whether you’re a curious beginner or a budding scientist, we bring experiments, real-world examples, and interactive learning to help you think like a scientist — and have fun while doing it.
Science
Science is a systematic process of exploring the natural world through observation, experimentation, and evidence-based reasoning. It spans disciplines like physics, chemistry, biology, and astronomy, aiming to understand how the universe and its components function."The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it."
-Neil deGrasse Tyson
Chemistry is the branch of science that studies matter — its composition, structure, properties, and the changes it undergoes. It explores how atoms and molecules interact, form bonds, and transform through chemical reactions. These principles explain everything from the oxygen we breathe to the materials in our phones.
Physics is the branch of science that studies matter, energy, and the fundamental forces of nature. It examines how the universe behaves — from the motion of planets to the behaviour of subatomic particles — using laws and mathematical models to explain and predict phenomena.
_Biology is the scientific study of life and living organisms — including their structure, function, growth, origin, evolution, and distribution. It covers everything from microscopic cells and bacteria to plants, animals, and ecosystems. Biology’s key branches include microbiology, genetics, anatomy, biochemistry, molecular biology, biotechnology, evolutionary biology, immunology, etc..
"For students, amateurs, researchers, and everyone in between, science fun facts are little sparks of knowledge that ignite curiosity, turn everyday observations into moments of wonder, and connect the dots between what we see, what we question, and what we discover. They make learning enjoyable, inspire deeper exploration, and remind us that even the smallest detail in nature or technology can reveal an amazing story about our universe."
Chess
Chess is a two-player strategic board game played on an 8×8 grid of alternating light and dark squares (64 squares total). Each player controls 16 pieces — one set is light (White), the other dark (Black). The goal is to checkmate the opponent’s king — putting it in a position where it is under attack (check) and cannot escape capture on the next move.
Opennings
Openings are crucial playing chess because they determine how the game will go. Choosing the right opening for you can be extremely beneficial
This the most common opening in chess for white. It begins with e4and leads to a variety of interesting positions and plays. Think: how should black respond to this?
