Friday Factoid Week 24

· 3 Comments ·

This week we did some more research on Pluto and the Kuiper Belt.  Instead of writing up more Factoids we wanted to give you access to one of our favorite tools for learning more about the amazing universe God has made.  Weeding through all the information and misinformation on the internet can be a daunting task, especially when it comes to ever-expanding topics like astronomy.  The folks over at Creation Today have done something to help families who want a safe place to send their kids to do research on-line.  They’ve created a free search engine that allows the user to access hundreds of thousands of resources from creation-based websites simply by typing in the topic you’re studying.  Here is the link, SearchCreation.org.  Enjoy!
