These include: China, Rome, England, Spain, Scotland, and many others. An example of early forensic science include the examination of fingerprints, rock carving's, engravings, and medical uses. Today it has evolved into a practice that can solve crime and mysteries.

Terraforming is the process of changing and altering a planet so it can support life making it similar to earth. Terraforming involves changing the climate,or the atmosphere. Many believe that Mars was once very similar to earth today; because of this, Mars is a very good candidate for terraforming. Within this site, we will compare and contrast these two planets.

Our entry contains six different science experiments. This site promotes proper scientific questioning, exploration, and sharing. Each experiment was performed using the scientific method which includes stating a hypothesis, making observations, gathering data, and drawing conclusions. Also in keeping with a proper experiment, each of the six experiments can be duplicated by users to check the accuracy of the results. The experiments deal with friction, tooth decay, salt and freezing, rusting, acids and metals, and volcanoes.

Our site has the capability to convert units of measurement from one type to another; for example, inches to meters. In addition to providing the proper conversion, our site will also give historical background and information on each unit as you use it. Often, there are very obscure units of measure where the user wouldn't have the slightest idea where they came from. Our site should clear up that confusion. We currently have 8 types of units with background information.

The title "Bogus" refers to the story of the Emperor's New Clothes, and how it took one honest voice to point out that the Emperor wasn't wearing anything! In this way, one dissenting voice has often brought advances in scientific understanding. Through wacky scientific/literary fantasy stories, explore spontaneous generation, light, and the properties of heat. Take part in the forum (or the "againstum") on the topics of animal experimentation, genetic engineering, and nuclear power.
