Attention Astrophysicists! Please look at Talk:Kinetics. Thank you.

Some articles I've worked on
- History of chemistry
- astronomical algorithm
- Margaret Fell
- Elias Hicks
- caloric (and now I have to merge it, duh)
Missing articles
- History of thermodynamics
- Dipper cluster, also known as the Ursa Major moving cluster. An open cluster of stars (possibly a moving group), much closer to the Sun than, say, the Pleiades or the Hyades, and therefore not recognized as a star cluster until recently. It includes five of the stars in the Big Dipper or Plough (constellation), namely, those other than Alkaid and Dubhe. It also includes several other bright stars (e. g. Sirius and Procyon? -- not sure about this) scattered around the sky as seen from the Sun's location.
- Lunar stations are the 28 "constellations" along the ecliptic used (instead of a twelve-constellation "zodiac") in many ancient cultures to indicate the location of the Moon in the sky on any given night. They are also known as lunar mansions or Chinese constellations
- John L. Heilbron and Daniel Kevles, historians of science and technology
- Beta Comae Berenices also known as β Comae Berenices
- Beta Canes Venatici
Many more missing articles in the list of stars by constellation. (This very long list has been broken up by constellation, so look for these redlinks inside each individual constellation article, e.g. Sagittarius, Coma Berenices, Vela, Cygnus, etc.)
Go Logophile, go! Now there are articles on Edward Hicks, John Wilbur, and Joseph John Gurney.
Stubs that need help
- Nikolai Fyodorov, 19th c. Russian philosopher
- Nucleocosmochronology
- Jean Baptiste Perrin
- 280s BCE and the like
Bigger articles that need help
- molecule
- thermodynamics (doesn't have any info on history of the field)
- kinetic theory
- chemical kinetics
- History of the Balkans
- Islamic Golden Age
- Islamic science
- Japanese atomic program (At the very least, I'm thinking about flagging this one for NPOV violations. It still has this scent of propaganda justifying the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.)
