Sun|trek is a rich and extensive website devoted to teaching schoolchildren about the Sun and its effect on Earth’s environment. In addition to projects, lesson plans, and teachers’ resources, the site provides engaging biographies of the 40 “solar guides” who volunteer their time to create and maintain the site.
