This award-winning documentary on LIGO, NSF's Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory, examines how LIGO is spearheading the new field of gravitational wave astronomy and opening a whole new window on the universe. LIGO's exquisitely sensitive instruments may ultimately take scientists farther back in time than ever before, catching, perhaps, the first murmurs of the universe in formation.
Learning to incorporate a variety of eco-friendly energy sources into businesses and homes will make Earth a better place to live. Students explore photovoltaics, the design behind wind turbine technology and the creative processes behind vehicles in the American Solar Car Race. Zero energy houses of the future will use many of these technologies to produce more energy than they consume. Renewable energy technologies are important for the future of our planet.
Since the beginning of time, humans have used chemical reactions without understanding them. For example, ancient Greek artisans were able to smelt metal, dye fabrics, and make glass. The attempt to transform simple metal into gold and silver was known as alchemy (the forerunner of chemistry as we know it today). By mixing elements, alchemists created chemical reactions which produced new compounds. While alchemists were never able to transform anything into gold or silver, their trails helped shape the science of chemistry. Part of Chemistry: Solved by Sherlock Olmos Series.

Zinc is a chemical element with the symbol Zn and atomic number 30.
Molybdenum is a chemical element with the symbol Mo and atomic number 42.
Fermium is a synthetic element with the symbol Fm and atomic number 100.
Tellurium is a chemical element with the symbol Te and atomic number 52. It is a brittle, mildly toxic, rare, silver-white metalloid.
Americium is a synthetic radioactive chemical element with the symbol Am and atomic number 95.
Osmium is a chemical element with the symbol Os and atomic number 76. It is a hard, brittle, bluish-white transition metal.
Iridium is a chemical element with the symbol Ir and atomic number 77. It is a very hard, brittle, silvery-white transition metal.
Beryllium is a chemical element with the symbol Be and atomic number 4. It is a relatively rare element in the universe.
Nobelium is a synthetic element, and thus a standard atomic weight cannot be given. Like all synthetic elements, it has no stable isotopes.
Tantalum is a chemical element with the symbol Ta and atomic number 73. Previously known as tantalium. Tantalum is a rare, hard, blue-gray, lustrous transition metal that is highly corrosion-resistant.

Demonstrates how to observe and record scientific observations. Concepts and terminology: observation, data, recording, data table, tools, safety, measuring, and graphs.
Tungsten, or Wolfram, is a chemical element with the symbol W and atomic number 74. It is a rare metal found naturally on Earth almost exclusively combined with other elements in chemical compounds rather than alone.
