The "Build a Nucleus" simulation allows users to explore the structure of the nucleus and the roles of different types of particles within it. The nucleus is the central part of an atom, and it contains protons and neutrons. Protons have a positive charge, while neutrons have no charge. The number of protons in a nucleus determines the element that the atom is. For example, an atom with 6 protons is a carbon atom, while an atom with 92 protons is a uranium atom.

Astrophysics is the study of the physical properties and behavior of objects in the universe, such as stars, galaxies, and black holes. Cosmology is the study of the origin, evolution, and future of the universe as a whole. Together, astrophysics and cosmology seek to better understand the structure and behavior of the universe and the fundamental laws that govern it.

Astronomy and cosmology are fields of science that study the universe and its origins, composition, and evolution. Over the centuries, many scientists and philosophers have contributed to our understanding of the universe and the laws that govern it. In this lesson, we will discuss some of the big names in astronomy and cosmology who have made significant contributions to these fields.

The Blackbody Spectrum simulation is an interactive tool that allows users to explore the concept of blackbody radiation and the emission of electromagnetic radiation by hot objects. The simulation includes several different modules, each of which focuses on a specific aspect of blackbody radiation.

The universe is an incredibly vast and expansive place, with distances between objects that are difficult for most people to comprehend. In this lesson, we will discuss some of the ways that astronomers measure and express these vast distances, and how they are used to understand the universe and its structures.

The vastness of space is almost too mind-boggling for the human brain to comprehend. In order to accurately illustrate our place in the universe, one group of friends decided to build the first scale model of the solar system in seven miles of empty desert
