It’s a big year for Science and Technology field’s for the studies, experiments, and results. We’ve spent a few hours gathering some of the top Science Sites displaying those qualities. Since Bill Nye(The Science Guy) isn’t airing his program any longer from PBS we’ve had to search the internet for our science experiments or news. We’ve searched for a mix of content in the medias of text, audio, and video. Here we present our Top 10 Best Science Websites:
#1. New Scientist-
Originally a magazine publication since 1956 recently added is the online site which allows you to keep up on latest science and technology news, reports, developments and research. With every addition you are presented with News, In-depth analysis, Technology, Commentary, Interviews, The Last Word, and Jobs.
#2. TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design)-
TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from those three worlds. Since then its scope has become ever broader.
This site makes the best talks and performances from TED available to the public, for free. More than 200 talks from our archive are now available, with more added each week. These videos are released under a Creative Commons license, so they can be freely shared and reposted.
We enjoy hearing speeches from scientist from all fields, this works perfect. Archives of footage of useful and interesting information and research. The video below is Joshua Klein in his speech “The amazing intelligence of crows.” TED has subjects for Technology, Entertainment, Design, Business, Science, Culture, Arts, Global issues and many more off branches.
#3. BBC NEWS | Science/Nature-
Well known BBC has been recognized for science journalism and world news. If international journalism is of need BBC can offer support. The range of story’s depend on what is currently relevant to today’s society. Some of the current issue titles are Mars probe set for risky descent, Europe could get own spaceship, and Wildlife populations ‘plummeting’. Overall the best journalistic valve for Science.
Where does all this news come from? Who writes all this stuff?
Nearly 100 experienced journalists working around the clock put together text, audio and video from the vast range of material that comes in every day. The Editor is responsible for the quality and integrity of the site. Send him your comments.

#4. NASA-
If NASA wasn’t on this list it wouldn’t be right.
Since its inception in 1958, NASA has accomplished many great scientific and technological feats in air and space. NASA technology also has been adapted for many nonaerospace uses by the private sector. NASA remains a leading force in scientific research and in stimulating public interest in aerospace exploration, as well as science and technology in general. Perhaps more importantly, our exploration of space has taught us to view Earth, ourselves, and the universe in a new way.

#5. PBS | Science-
PBS is a media enterprise that serves 355 public noncommercial television stations and reaches nearly 73 million people each week through on-air and online content. Bringing diverse viewpoints to television and the Internet, PBS provides high-quality documentary and dramatic entertainment, and consistently dominates the most prestigious award competitions.

#6. Pacwind-
What PacWind has done is invent a small wind turbine that can really be used by anyone for almost anything. What they invented (and is now in full production) is what they call Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWTs) and are supposed to be completely silent, stable, and safe in wind conditions up to 100+ mph. They are also supposed to be completely bird friendly too.
PacWind has invented, engineered, and is in full production on a truly revolutionary line of vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) that can be installed nearly anywhere. PacWind’s innovative VAWTs are completely silent, stable, and safe in all wind conditions up to 100+ mph. They are economical and efficient…and what’s more, they are maintenance free, operate in all climate conditions, carry a 5-year manufacturer warranty, and are also bird, wildlife, and people friendly!

#10. Revision3-
Revision3 is the first media company that gets it, born from the Internet, on-demand generation. Unlike aggregators, mash-ups, and user-generated video sites, Revision3 is an actual TV network for the web, creating and producing its own original, broadcast quality shows.
The company was founded in 2005 by technology visionaries Kevin Rose, Jay Adelson, Dan Huard, Ron Gorodetzky, and David Prager, because they couldn’t find anything they wanted to watch on traditional television, and is now led by Internet TV pioneer Jim Louderback.
