Every day, research sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) turns up a new discovery. NSF created this website to serve as a clearinghouse of information about the work they sponsor. The Discoveries site can be searched in its entirety, or visitors can just peruse the chronological list that is front and center on the homepage. NSF's public investment in science, engineering, education, and technology is prolific but most are unaware of the results. Here, visitors can learn about NSF projects that concern the "Internet, microbursts, Web browsers, extrasolar planets, and more... a panopoly of discoveries and innovations that began with NSF support." The Scout staff enjoys this site so much that most of us have subscribed to its RSS feed as well.
