Write for us!

Science ABC started with the sole objective of communicating the complexity of science without all the jargon. We believe that science is extremely exciting and fascinating and our classroom science often does that injustice and bores us. When we started in 2015, we wanted to make readers find awe-inspiring science in the little things. We’re still questioning the world around us and writing about it, and that’s the kind of writing we publish.

We started this website in 2015 with an objective to educate people while keeping the fun of learning intact. We pick up topics that generate curiosity and try to answer those with proper science concepts. We get about 1.5 million visitors on the website in a month, mostly from the US followed by India, Australia, UK. We also have a YouTube Channel where we create animated videos of some of the concepts. The main idea is to keep it simple and help people learn some science while reading or watching a video. We are looking for people with a science background, interested in working as a Freelance Science Writer with us.
