Optical Illusions
$29.95
Science kit for young researchers
About this kit:
When looking at the world around us, our eyes collect information that our brain interprets. But are we really seeing reality as it is? As you will soon see, sometimes our brain interprets reality in a wrong way. To put it simply; Seeing is (not always) believing!
In this kit we will explore different types of fascinating optical illusions including: double meaning illusions - is it a face or a vase?, movement illusions - is the picture moving?!?, distorting illusions - is this really a straight line? You will build a magical piggy bank that will make your money disappear, explore colour illusions with special spinners. These are just a few of many exciting experiments inside. Over a dozen of them in this exciting kit!
This science kit comes equipped with the necessary equipment excluding some common household items. It includes a clear guide accompanied with photos of the processes as well as fascinating scientific explanations and facts.
Outback Astronomer
$39.95
The extraordinary story of how an amateur astronomer's unwavering passion for the cosmos propelled him from the mines of Broken Hill to working with NASA.
Born and raised in remote Broken Hill, Trevor Barry left school after Year 10 to work in the mines. Years later, a single glimpse of Saturn through a colleague's telescope knocked Trevor's world completely off its axis, turning his whole life upside down.
With his newfound passion and armed with decades of outback know-how, Trevor set about building an observatory in his backyard using bits and pieces from his shed, a second-hand washing machine motor, rainwater tank parts and an old catamaran wire. It took some canny negotiations with his wife, Cheryl, 'the Gorgeous and Adorable', whose prized garden took a battering - especially when he decided to add a second storey - but before long Trevor was not just gazing at the stars but capturing extraordinary images of the planets.
Over the years, Trevor's love affair with Saturn, 'the ringed jewel of the solar system', only grew more passionate, and in his early fifties he did a degree in astronomy, topping his class. When he recorded a massive storm on Saturn from his backyard observatory, he alerted NASA. The world's greatest space agency took note and invited Trevor to contribute to its interplanetary research - leading to opportunities far beyond Broken Hill and even Trevor's wildest dreams.
Today, when he's not trending the greens at his local bowls club, Trevor can usually be found in his background, collecting data for international research projects. His work is held in high regard by professional astronomers, and his observations are published in peer-reviewed scientific journals around the world.
