Use APOD for homeschooling.

Use Astronomy Pictures of the day for News and articles.

From the lens 14 Astronomy Pictures of the Moon.

The homeschooler could use the photo explanations at this site for science studies, such as cloud formations and geography. The photos are from the world over, as well as from space.

I am glad I rediscovered this picture site and I hope it is of some interest to you too.

    I'll bet some of the folks up here at Lowell Observatory are aware of this website. But I wasn't. Very cool.
