Fireworks: The Science Behind the Spectacle
1998
This site explains the history of fireworks, the chemistry elements that make up fireworks, the physics which take place during every fireworks show, and the job of the pyrotechnician. Unfortunately, the Interactivity link is not available yet, but the graphics, scientific information, and bibliographies give any high school student a "behind the scenes" look at a fireworks show.
