In this thread I intend to compile an ongoing list of useful websites giving either tutorials, or additional details on the standard model of cosmology. These should enable everyone to be on a level footing when discussing the expansion of the universe in the standard model.

Please, feel free to add any reputable sources to the list. By reputable, I mean websites written by cosmologists, or organisations, that have information that conforms to the standard model. I do not include wikipedia in this list, for various reasons.

• Ned Wright's Cosmology Tutorial. This is a nice, compact introduction to standard cosmology, written by one of the experts in the field.
• John Baez's Physics FAQ. This is a physics FAQ, which is quite broad, but does include a lot on cosmlogy, and relativity.
• Cambridge Cosmology. This is the public website of the DAMTP in Cambridge (yes, where Stephen Hawking is!). It covers some things in relatively easy to understand language.
• NASA WMAP This gives info on the WMAP mission, along with other basic introductions to cosmology and other things. This is written for the general public.
• NASA's ask an astrophysicist. The cosmology section of the website includes other FAQ asked.
• Baez's booklist. This isn't particularly aimed at cosmology, but gives a list of different level books if anyone wants to get an insight into any particular area.
• Lineweaver article. How could I forget this one-- it's one of the best cosmology tutorials available on the web!
• This is an article in Scientific American written by the author of the above paper.

That's it for now. I'll add to it when I get time (or others can, like I said above). Enjoy!
