Physics Projects for Teenagers - Charles's Quest

[Cbray]

Hi,
just wondering if I could get any physics projects I could do in my spare time.
I'm only a teenager but love studying phyiscs.

Kind regards,
Charles.

We don't know enough about you to suggest something. Like what your knowledge level is. How mechanically inclined you are. What kind of budget you have to work with. (If any). ETC. Do you have a specific area you would like a project in?

My knowledge level of physics is basic since I'm in high school but I score in the top 1% in math in Australia.
Budget doesn't matter.
I have a passion for astrophysics, but that's probably out of this world since where I'm standing now in my understandings of physics. Any area matters, just it has to be fun ! :)

Finance LISA, since NASA so heartlessly abandoned her

Astrophysics huh? Do you own a telescope, or perhaps a good pair of binoculars? (Ones with wide diameter lenses on the end, and not too high of a magnification) You could study some of the variable stars or something. I havn't done too many science projects, so I can't really think of any good ones.

look up the Brooklyn space program. Pretty easy in principle and somewhat low budget. the fun factor looks off the charts, especially if you attach a video camera as they did in the BSP. check the video!
