The subjects that you like and dislike may vary at school but for most kids, science has a special place in studies mainly for its various branches and sub-branches. Any learning-subject, if presented in a complicated way, becomes next to impossible; but if presented in a short and simpler way, it becomes a piece of cake. This is what www.scienceabc.com does.

The website, scienceabc ignites the imagination and curiosity of all the kids who like STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths) as a field of education by finding interesting science questions and providing answers to them. Although the site caters to all the ‘who, what, where, how’ questions put up by the younger generation, the content is so well-presented that even the adults cannot stay away from reading it.

The site opens with a neat interface and you’ll see the main menu at the top with categories like, ‘Nature’, ‘Humans’, ‘ entertainment’ ‘Tech’, ‘Pure Science’, ‘Eye Openers’, ‘Social Sciences’, etc., with some having sub-categories in them.

So what makes the site different from so many other science sites. Scienceabc is built with an idea of fun learning in the ‘question/answer form’. It ignites your curiosity and shakes your grey cells constantly by asking questions that you may have never seen and thought of before. For instance have you ever thought of, “How scientifically accurate is the airplane rescue scene in Iron Man 3?” or “The science of Deadpool’s super powers!”

If this doesn’t make any sense, do you know “How does a helicopter fly by tilting forwards/backwards? Or how vitamins are put in vitamin pill?” These and many more such questions in different categories really put you in awe about these rarely heard facts.

If you are still wondering about the answers for the above, you can check it out at https://www.scienceabc.com/
