Science News

[Partof1]

Is there a news site that focuses mainly on science based events? I have to look up and summarize science in the news, but it has been ridiculous sifting through local media. Any help would be appreciated. :smallbiggrin:

It cracks me up that you titled this thread "Science News" and the first thing I thought of was Science News. :smallcool:

Indeed. And I've used it for exactly this purpose in my younger days.

I may be a bit biased, I frequent the forums, but I like Universe Today (http://www.universetoday.com/) for all my space science news.

If you want non-biased, I'd suggest looking for some scientific journals online if that will work for you. or go to a scientific organization's website such as the American Phytopathological Society website (http://www.apsnet.org). They should have some good stuff for you there.
