Science is Everywhere seeks to provoke curiosity and unpack the science in everyday life and answer questions like ‘how in a country with so much rain can we have a problem with clean water? Each episode is driven by questions and scientific experiments which seek to answer those questions like Professor Shane Bergin at Trinity College Dublin who uses his laboratory to demonstrate why the doppler effect can explain both the expanding universe and the redness of Rudolf’s nose…

Neil Turner (of the Broadsheet Windows Phone app and Bus Nearby) has released his latest Windows Phone app, Fuel Nearby.

Using data from Pumps.ie, it lets you know the price of petrol and diesel as well as the services available in stations close to your current location.

It also lets you save your favourite so you don’t have to go searching for them.

It’s available now on the Windows Phone App Store for free (and with a promise of no ads or in-app purchases in the future).

For iOS and Android users, there are existing apps (by other developers) available on the Apple App Store and Google Play.

Do you have an Irish app? Broadsheet@broadsheet.ie

A new winter season approaches. This sequence of photographs was taken earlier this year before the snow melted.
