Moko is an explorer. As he travels the world continent by continent, he makes many friends and discovers many natural phenomena which sometimes delight him, and other times scare him. Each animated episode recounts an adventure and takes an "original story" approach to explaining these natural phenomena. In this episode, as the stars twinkle in the night sky, Moko is thinking of his village. Totemie asks him if she can join him in his quest for the end of the world. The next morning they leave Totemie's village and find their way to a desert where they find strange mountains and a bizarre twisting valley, deep and narrow, that seems to go on forever. A man crosses their path and tells them that only the pure of heart and courageous ever find the end of the deep valley. Filled with courage they set off to find it. Moko plays his flute and the mountains echo leads their way through the canyon's maze.

Moko is an explorer. As he travels the world continent by continent, he makes many friends and discovers many natural phenomena which sometimes delight him, and other times scare him. Each animated episode recounts an adventure and takes an "original story" approach to explaining these natural phenomena. In this episode, one morning, Totemie takes Moko to pick wild mushrooms used for medicine by her people. There is a particularly rare one she is hoping to find. Moko suddenly slips in a crevice. Totemie runs to her village to get an old man who tells her that she should join Moko. When she does, Moko and Totemie discover an enormous cave filled with lakes in a rainbow of colors. They follow a stream that eventually becomes a river and on the river's bank they find the old man who is waiting for them. Before they leave to go back to the village, the old man asks them to keep this magical cave a secret and to keep the memory of it safe in their mind.

Each animated episode recounts an adventure and takes an "original story" approach to explaining these natural phenomena. In this episode, night falls and Moko, having followed the footprints in the snow, reaches the seemingly uninhabited village. He notices a young boy by a shrub who is cutting firewood. He introduces himself as Alarick and invites Moko into his home. Along the way, they hear a great rumbling sound that startles them, like the breath of a monster. Moko wants to go to the source of the noise, thinking it is the reason for the villagers' hiding. Alarick then leads him to the back of the village where he shows him a geyser and a pool of hot water. Moko thinks that Alarick must know a great deal of secrets about this new land and decides to stay a while, the end of the world can wait for now.

Each animated episode recounts an adventure and takes an "original story" approach to explaining these natural phenomena. In this episode, Moko wants to head off and tells Totemie that he must find the end of the world. But a fisherman tells them that no one will find what it is that they seek unless they have passed by the blue holes, or underwater cave. Moko doesn't understand but follows the path of a mysterious and immense blue hole in the middle of the ocean. This is when strange things begin happening. The sea is swirling and the sky changes color. Strange lights appear in front of their raft, then disappear. They get the impression that they are flying high above the ocean, then mysteriously they find themselves back on the beach. Moko remembers his first trip and thinks that this must be the heart of the ocean beating for his old friend.

Sometimes, when he sees the moon rising in the distance like the sun, he thinks that by walking towards the horizon he could get closer and find out more. That way he could even ask the moon itself. During his long walk towards the ever-receding horizon, Moko watches the moon constantly changing shape. Sometimes it's a crescent like a smile, sometimes a disc of light; sometimes it's white, sometimes yellowish. It travels across the sky but you can't see it moving. One night, Moko decides to watch the moon perform its lovely dance among the stars. He figures he'll never reach the horizon, and in fact maybe the moon just wants to put on a show, to be watched more often.

Each animated episode recounts an adventure and takes an "original story" approach to explaining these natural phenomena. In this episode, continuing their expedition, Moko and Totemie come across a great river. It is so beautiful and so wide that they decide to build a raft and explore it further. A woman who is returning from the fields warns them of a great danger, but it is too late, the current has already carried the raft along its waves. In the distance they can hear a deep rumbling sound, and it seems to be getting closer. As their raft is propelled forward, it is stopped by the edge of a reef just on the edge of a great chasm. The spectacle is so breathtaking that they forget their fear. When they finally manage to reach the shore safely, they thank the river for having kept them safe and having shown them the magnificent view of the waterfall.

Each animated episode recounts an adventure and takes an "original story" approach to explaining these natural phenomena. In this episode, on that night the tide was low and the boat had been beached. Moko and Alarick were playing percussion and flute to pass the time. Suddenly, it was as if their music was being accompanied by a strange singing. They decided to investigate the source of this strange new sound. Walking along a hilly path in the forest, they were surrounded by hundreds of tall rocks that stood like humans in the dusk. A gust of wind blew and they could once again hear the bizarre song. Frightened at first, Moko and Alarick decided that the rocks were singing as a choir and the joined them with their instruments. When the wind fell, they regained their boat, happy to have participated in the symphony of the singing stones who were probably lonely and wanted to attract visitors.
The concept of propulsive thrust to move objects over large distances is ancient. Yet, the technology to move an automobile forward or a rocket into space was invented less than two centuries ago. The invention of the solid fuel propulsion system combined with Newton's Third Law is the simplistic basis for modern rocketry. Students will review the history of propulsion and explore its use as a viable energy source of the future.

Each animated episode recounts an adventure and takes an "original story" approach to explaining these natural phenomena. In this episode, the rain has just fallen and the sun is returning. A beautiful rainbow fills the horizon. Moko would like to take a few colors and bring them back to his village to offer them to a friend. He walks toward the rainbow, but the closer he gets, the more the colors disappear. Disappointed, he heads back home... and the rainbow reappears in the distance. He asks the village wise man how he could take a few colors from the rainbow and make a gift of them to a friend. The wise man tells him it would be better to ask his friend to come look at the beauty of the colors with him. After all, Moko tells himself, the rainbow is too big and doesn't want us to take its colors away. It comes to make the sky more beautiful. It just wants to be admired.

In this episode, on that morning, Moko was helping his friend and the other villagers to cut firewood to heat their homes. Snow begins to fall, and Alarick tells Moko that it would be best if they went back inside. But Moko wants to learn the secret of the snow. He heads toward the mountain. At the summit, he sees large trees bending in the wind and clouds of snow swirling around in the sky. As he makes his way back down to the village, the storm blocks his way and he can go no further. Moko begs with the mountain to let him through, promising to tell no one the mountain's secret. The storm calms and Moko returns to the village. When Alarick asks him what he has learned, Moko tells him that the mountain's secret is not one that can be revealed.

Looking out to the horizon, he notices a shot of color at the water's surface. He wakes Mei-Lei to ask her what he is seeing. Together they take a barge and set off. Under them, a rainbow of colors is dancing in the waves. Moko and Mei-Lei think that the fish must be organizing a party and decide to dive in. Bit by bit the sun is rising and day is breaking. The two friends return to the village, overjoyed at the wonders of the ocean.

In this episode, as they drift away from the iceberg and are throwing their fishing nets, Moko and Alarick's boat is surrounded by a thick fog. Moko thinks this is smoke and that there must be fire. He cannot even see his friend, just hears his voice telling him that a sudden fog on the ocean can last for a long time and that only patience will save them. Moko thinks that he should not have thrown his net so soon and that the ocean is blindfolding them so they won't see which way it is taking them. Gliding along, they hear some strange sounds and see bizarre shapes in the mist. Alarick begins to play his flute and the fog begins to thin. They discover a lovely bay, sheltered from the wind, ideal for fishing. Moko is filled with admiration for his friend who knew how to tame the ocean.

In this episode, Moko wants to know what lies beyond the forest and decides to go find out. Totemie comes along and after a long walk they find a mountain village. Moko, who hasn't seen the ocean in a long time, is dreaming of seeing it again, but realizes that it will be awhile before they cross this mountain and see the sea. But then, they see boats and barges. Why would there be boats on a mountain? An old man comes to them and tells them that if it is the ocean one seeks, sometimes it can be found even on a mountain. Curious, Moko and Totemie walk on into the forest and discover what can only be an ocean atop the mountain, only here they don't say ocean or sea, but rather they call it a lake. Moko believes that this lake is here in order to console the people who cannot live beside the ocean.
Due to the development of computers and the growing number of programmers who develop new and improved software, there has been a wave of illegal software use, known as piracy. Companies are making advances in technology and increasing the number of computer programmers in an effort to reduce piracy. This is the Free Software model.

The sky is blue and Moko thinks that in this country there just aren't any clouds. Mei-Lei tells him to wait until nightfall, that the rains will dance over the village. Moko doesn't believe her, there isn't a cloud in sight! Suddenly, the sky darkens and Mei-Lei wants to return to the village, but Moko wants to know more. He climbs the hill behind the village to get a better look at the sky. The wind picks up and a great wave of rain washes everything in its wake. Moko and Mei-Lei take shelter from the monsoon behind a rock. To make the rain stop Mei-Lei starts to sing and dance. Bit by bit the rain subsides and the two friends decide to return to the village. Moko thinks that Mei-Lei's dancing was magical and had the power to stop the rain.

Each animated episode recounts an adventure and takes an "original story" approach to explaining these natural phenomena. In this episode, Moko and Mei-Lei are gathering seashells in between the rocks on the white sand beach to decorate the village's houses. Moko asks Mei-Lei if they can go to other beaches to try to find other shells. Mei-Lei likes the idea and goes to ask a fisherman to take them to another beach on his boat. Just beyond the village Moko sees a vast plain that has been flooded with water. He thinks this must have been the great wave, flooding the field with water so that the rice would grow. This is when Mei-Lei picks up a magnificent seashell and Moko believes that it must surely be a gift from the ocean. Moko and Mei-Lei make their way back home, carrying their gift and happy to have seen wonderful new places. They are certain that the ocean must know an underground passage in which it sends waves every now and then to feed the rivers and the fields.
Are the rings of Saturn a real celestial phenomenon or merely a cosmic illusion? Technology allows the experts to get closer to the furthest planet visible to the naked eye. Old questions are answered and new ones arise. Does Saturn hold the key to Earth's weather and will one of its moons supply us with all the oil we'll ever need? Cutting-edge computer graphics are used to show what life would be like on other planets and to imagine what kinds of life forms might evolve in alien atmospheres.
Saturn's giant, hazy moon Titan has been essential to NASA's Cassini mission during its 13 years of exploration. NASA used the Huygens probe to explore the surface of Titan, and the scientists were surprised at the geology of the moon. Titan has turned out to be a very complex world with methane rain, lakes, and dunes.
