Yellow Daisy Egg
My pets are in awe of these beautiful eggs—they would love to try to paint their own one year. Easter and spring are times of joy as the earth awakens, plants are pushing forth from the soil, and the days are becoming warmer. Many baby animals are born in the spring, and life is burgeoning. May these eggs bring you joy and be a reminder of the earth renewing itself.

@ Magnetised Metal Spheres
"Hey, Templeton—what's the difference between a pessimist and a magnet?"
"I don't know, Sir Fluffle Bottom. What is the difference?"
"A magnet has a positive side!"

@ Abstract, Magnetic Energy
Ferrite is a ceramic compound composed of iron oxide and other elements (strontium or barium). Among the applications of ferrites are refrigerator magnets and small electric motors.

"You know, I love talking about magnets. But I try not to."
"Why's that, Templeton?" asked Supahfly, baffled.
"It's quite a polarizing topic!" responded Templeton.

"I'm very pleased with my new fridge magnet. So far I've got five fridges!" said Casper.
"Ouch!" responded Templeton.

Purple and Gold Aurora
Auroras occur when charged particles (electrons and protons) collide with gases in the Earth's upper atmosphere. Those collisions produce tiny flashes that fill the sky with colourful light. As billions of flashes occur in sequence, the auroras appear to move or dance in the sky.

@ Purple and Gold Aurora
"Wow! I'm going to get me one of these cool fridge magnets!" remarked Toothless.
"Me too!" said Templeton. "It'll be a nice reminder of our Rare Earth experience, won't it?"

@ Abstract Solar System
Rare-earth magnets are the most powerful magnets available today. Strongest among the rare-earth magnets are neodymium magnets. As long as the magnetic circuit is in good condition, samarium cobalt magnets can outperform neo magnets at elevated temperatures (of approximately 150° C and above).

@ Ducks in a Row
Magnetic materials are always made of metal, but not all metals are magnetic. Iron is magnetic, so any metal with iron in it will be attracted to a magnet. Steel contains iron, so a steel paperclip will be attracted to a magnet too. Most other metals, for example aluminium, copper and gold, are NOT magnetic.

@ Electromagnetic Waves
There are different types of magnets
There are three different types of magnets: electromagnets, air-core magnets, and permanent magnets. There are five types of modern permanent magnets, each made in a different way from different materials with different characteristics. The five types of permanent magnets:
Neodymium
Samarium Cobalt
Ferrite
Alnico
Flexible Rubber

Turquoise Northern Lights
The aurora can be seen near the poles of both the northern and southern hemisphere. In the north the display is known as the aurora borealis; in the south it is called the aurora australis. What we are seeing in these beautiful displays in the sky are atoms and molecules in our atmosphere colliding with particles from the sun. The aurora's characteristic wavy patterns and curtains of light are caused by the lines of force in the Earth’s magnetic field.

Northern Lights in Green
What causes the different colours in the aurora? Different gases give off different colours when they are heated. The same process is also taking place in the aurora. The two primary gases in the Earth’s atmosphere are nitrogen and oxygen, and these elements give off different colours during an aurora display. The green we see in the aurora is characteristic of oxygen, while hints of purple, blue or pink are caused by nitrogen.

@ Northern Lights in Green
Magnetic materials are always made of metal, but not all metals are magnetic. Iron is magnetic, so any metal with iron in it will be attracted to a magnet. Steel contains iron, so a steel paperclip will be attracted to a magnet too. Most other metals, for example aluminium, copper and gold, are NOT magnetic.

Reel to Reel Tape
Some old-fashioned magnetic tape! Do you remember recording the top hits of the day on a reel-to-reel tape recorder?

@ Reel to Reel Tape
The Earth is a large magnet The Earth’s core is made up of mostly iron, which has given the Earth its own magnetic field, with both a north and south-facing pole. The Earth’s magnetic field protects the planet by deflecting solar winds and charged particles from the sun.
