This video is a message to ESERO-UK from European Space Agency astronaut Tim Peake. He talks about studying STEM subjects and how he became an astronaut. The video includes images of a launch, Tim engaging in various astronaut training exercises and the International Space Station, where Tim will be for six months...
As part of the educational activities around the British astronaut Tim Peake's mission to the International Space Station (ISS), this project offers schools the unique opportunity to access and analyse ionising radiation data from the ISS. A variety of data sets will be available from the start with others being...
Produced by the Royal Observatory Greenwich, this booklet introduces time dilation and the Schwarzschild radius of a black hole. Included is an online video that discusses what is inside a black hole and how light and time behave near one. Equations for time dilation and the Schwarzschild radius are introduced and...
A Catalyst article about neutrinos. Neutrinos are fundamental particles. They are tiny, a neutrino has a mass about one-millionth of the mass of an electron, and they have no electric charge. This article looks at the detection of these elusive particles which requires the use a giant detector. The one described is...
This Catalyst article investigates tokamaks. A 'tokamak' is a device for generating high-temperature plasma in which nuclear fusion can occur; this may form the basis of a new generation of power stations.
The article is from Catalyst: Secondary Science Review 2015, Volume 26, Issue 1.

This video reviews how transistors work and introduces Moore’s law, i.e., the number of transistors fitted onto a chip increases exponentially with time.
This means that the size of the transistor must reduce significantly. However, as the buffer zone (prevents current flowing) between n-type...
This series of activities from NASA take a mathematical approach to looking at transits, eclipses and occultations. They are intended as supplementary problems for students looking for additional challenges in mathematics and physical science from age 11 to 19 years.
The problems were created to be authentic...
These technical briefs focus on ways to transport goods and people in a relatively low cost way. This is important to people in the...
A Catalyst article describing how to make a spectrometer to analyse light by using a CD to split the light and some other household items for the rest of the equipment.
This article is from Catalyst: Secondary Science Review 2011, Volume 21, Issue 4.

From the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), this resource describes why we explore the solar system and space missions carried out in recent years. These include: * Rosetta mission to a comet * Mars Express * Venus Express * SMART-1 mission to the Moon * Cassini Huygens surveying * Saturn and Mars...
This booklet contains a range of suggested teaching activities and contexts for teaching about materials at A level. Curriculum links include plastic, elastic, deformation, stress, strain, tension, compression, breaking stress, ductile, brittle, strong, Young modulus, and Hooke's law.
Although produced to...
This Nuffield Advanced Physics Unit offered an introduction to quantum theory presented in a single volume for teachers and students. The main work was theoretical. Many of the arguments were presented as a chain of questions.
...This Nuffield Advanced Physics Unit was designed as an introduction to the course. The authors wanted to capture the students' imagination right from the beginning, and so they chose for the first Unit a relatively complex topic of considerable practical importance but...
