Is there a physics-, chemistry-, biology- or maybe mathematics-oriented Stack Exchange site?

4@BalusC: SE has turned into what you see on Area51. "Third Party" SE sites have been deprecated. blog.stackoverflow.com/2010/05/migration-of-se-1-0-sites– squillmanCommented Jun 14, 2010 at 17:47

@squillman: ah yes, I missed that. Thanks.– user138231Commented Jun 14, 2010 at 17:50

4I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it is an ever changing list that is a duplicate of the science site list.– user213963Commented Feb 2, 2016 at 20:54

I think the very good answer here is that link. And therefore should not be off-topic pretty much your answer covers it already sufficiently doesn't it?– XanlantosCommented Apr 7, 2021 at 11:53

There is a full list of science sites on Stack Exchange
Here are some examples from the overview of Stack Exchange sites:
- MathOverflow: research-level mathematics.
- Math: all levels of mathematics
- Physics
- Biology
- Chemistry
There may be others as well. Check out the full list of sites for an up-to-date list.

1Still, all these are sites for a particular domain within science, none of them deals with the fundamentals of the scientific process.– AlexCommented Nov 8, 2016 at 17:24

@Alex but everything is science, so how could u make a specific site for it:">"? Commented Mar 25, 2020 at 19:36

1@bluejayke Everything is application of science, but not about the scientific process itself. It's like saying that everything in life is math, but nevertheless not useful at all to describe biology.stackexchange.com as being about math.– AlexCommented Mar 26, 2020 at 10:52

@bluejayke I mean, contrary to some popular belief, science is not the acquired knowledge itself. Science is the process of acquiring knowledge.– AlexCommented Mar 26, 2020 at 10:54
To update the existing answers for SE 2.0, Stacks in scientific fields now include:
These along with some other Stacks are listed in the Stack Exchange Directory under science and new sites are being proposed in the Area 51 science category.
Proposals at Area 51 for SE-2.0 sites:
- Physics - graduated
- Chemistry - graduated
Popular Natural Sciences- Proposal removed- Astronomy - public beta
Your support in bringing them into existence is appreciated!

@AlE. are you sure about that Astronomy one? Though this does point out the problem with external resources.– user213963Commented Feb 2, 2016 at 20:53

@MichaelT: Follow the link to Area 51. Right in the header at the top it says "The Astronomy site didn't have enough activity during the beta. It has been closed, and its content has been merged into Physics. You can download the data dump of all questions here."– aleCommented Feb 2, 2016 at 20:55

1@AlE. and that proposal was merged. And then it was restarted. And it seems to be doing reasonably now. And this information is perpetually getting out of date.– user213963Commented Feb 2, 2016 at 20:55

This particular answer seems to have been superceded by others, so it should probably be removed.– aleCommented Feb 2, 2016 at 20:57

@AlE. That's never been the correct procedure - either answers are updated (which is ultimately the reason why everyone with sufficient reputation can do it, especially if the OP moved on) or the superseding answers (should) get more upvotes. Thanks for your updating this answer btw :) Commented Feb 3, 2016 at 6:23

@AlE. I agree with your close-vote though, there is no reason to maintain this question now that SE has an automatically up-to-date list Commented Feb 3, 2016 at 6:25
If you want to know something about scientific processes like teaching, paper writing / reviewing, ethics, ... then you might want to have a look at academia.stackexchange.com
-
Although that is a site about the process of learning and reporting science, not the scientific process itself.– AlexCommented Nov 8, 2016 at 17:22
