  • Four different styles of winged planes. Caption: Do this for all wing designs, then compare your distances

    Scientists at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory discuss the importance of variables and design when conducting science fair projects. In this segment, they instruct students to conduct the experiment multiple times, and each trial should repeat in exactly the same manner. Part of the “How to Do a Science Fair Project” series.

  • Person holding a simple model airplane made of thin wood. Caption: So if I only have 5 or 6 grams of thrust here,

    Third in the series of three productions designed to let students learn by doing, guiding them through the science and history behind the Wright Brothers' invention of powered flight. This third component contains the same "how to" segments from the second in the series (13692) and parts of the history and scientific concepts from the first in the series (13691). However, it also provides greater ease and flexibility in locating, reviewing, and pausing in and between segments than the other two productions in the series. Good for sharing with students to aid them as they build and experiment with kites, gliders, and rubber-band-powered planes.
