I can provide a couple questions with my own solutions but you would have to supply the two multiple choices.

The 'dark matter has no yet been solved. What is the solution?

My solution? It does not exist!
Separated 'electric charges' cause the enhancement of the gravity.

#2 - What is driving the current 'expansion of space'?

An explosion? No, the BB was not an explosion.

My solution? Space is not expanding.
The light waves are expanding.

The above are all I can think of right now.

Thanks a lot folks! I have a LOT of questions to get the ultimate science quiz off the ground. Keep them coming - but I expect to be able to launch the quiz in the not-too-far-future.

I have the quiz engine ready, but I need to finish a new function that lets people save their progress. And we're going to have a ranking list, of course! This will be cool.

[modest]

Are you doing a time limit for each question?
And how about scoring individual categories - like when you stop it would say “your strongest subject is geology at 82% and your worst subject is anatomy at 16%”. That would be a neat aspect.

Can’t wait to see it -

I honestly cannot build too much functionality into it at this point, but keep posting ideas like that and I will see what I can do!
