Clear Sky Clock for Kansas City

Welcome to the wonderful world of Physics & Astronomy

I'm your host, Doug Patterson. If you're in my class, be sure to check out what's happening now in your class by visiting the Desire2Learn site for your section. If you're not in my class, check out the latest in Physics and Astronomy news from Physics Today and Sky & Telescope. You can also get a plethora of weather data and forecasts from the National Weather Service for Kansas City, Jefferson City, and Lawrence. I've also found a variety of websites that are great for searching for scientific data and information. Enjoy!
