Hi everyone,
Here’s what’s new on Sammartano.Science, all free for your classroom:
- Earth Explorer: A full-screen 3D Earth with real data: plates, earthquakes, volcanoes, ocean currents, weather, climate change, the inside of the Earth, and the continents moving back to Pangaea.
- Rock Characteristics: Fifteen real rock samples, scanned in 3D and grouped as igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic. Open any rock, turn it in your hands, and read the clues that show its type. On an iPhone or iPad, you can set it on your desk in AR.
New videos are live on YouTube also!

Plus, I had some fun designing some Mineral Specimen Posters - order your prints now, very cool for the classroom!
A quick reminder that everything on the site is free, with no ads and no logins, so it’s safe for any classroom. If these tools help your students, please consider a small donation to cover hosting and new simulations. Enjoy!
