Museum of the History of Science, Oxford

A few months ago, I found the website for the Museum of the History of Science at Oxford, online here. I was amazed especially by the online exhibitions. If you have a chance, go here: you can learn about steampunk, the significance of blackboards, "the most noble problem in nature," astrolabes, and mirrors made out of meteorites. That's quite a range. Oxford should be proud.
