Top Free Android Scientific Apps

Science is the effort of trying to understand how the physical world works. From observation and experimentation, science uses physical evidence of natural phenomena to compile data and analyze the collated information.

Like countless others, I was introduced to the fascination of astronomy by the venerable Sir Patrick Moore. For anyone who does not know, Sir Patrick is an amateur astronomer who has presented 705 episodes of The Sky at Night, over a 54 year period.
