Publications

When a scientist discovers something new about the Universe, they report it in a scientific publication. Many of our partner school students and teachers have contributed ground-breaking findings and discoveries in publications.

Below are a list of scientific publications that include Orbyts school students and teachers (spotlighted in bold).

 

They have accumulated over 250 citations (and, if you're into these things, if Orbyts was a person it would have a H-index of 8).
