Science Images

Rotating header “Science!” images were collected from Flickr, are copyrighted by their respective owners and used here in compliance with various Creative Commons licenses. Images may have been cropped and/or resized to fit header dimensions. Attributions (courtesy of ImageCodr) and links to original images are below.

There are exactly 100 of these images, because the metric system is very scientific and because science is full of beautiful and awe-inspiring images.

Header images of “Not-Science” (i.e., me) were taken by me (because who else would?), copyright 2014 Charlie Hatton and available for use by anyone (you poor, misguided bastard, you) under a Creative Commons “BY-NC-SA” license. Those images, his noodly appendage help us all, are available on this page.
