  • Image of a layer of ice above liquid water. Caption: This is called sea ice.

    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, on that morning, Moko decides it is time to leave this place and continue on his quest for the end of the world. Alarick offers him his boat and Moko takes off. Nightfalls and daylight seems to never return. As he advances on the waves of the dark ocean, his boat gets stuck in the sea ice. Moko thinks that this country is refusing to let him leave. He pleads for daylight to return and for the ice to melt by playing the flute Alarick gave him. The ice melts, his boat is freed and he carries on his voyage as the sun rises ahead of him. Moko discovers a new land in the horizon.

  • Illustration of a high mountain with a channel in the middle worn away and a river of water on the bottom of the channel. Caption: We call this phenomenon erosion.

    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.

  • Plastic tube containing clear, pebble-like objects is attached to a larger tube. Caption: The gas is filling up a constant volume.

    Chemistry is the science of interacting particles and the various states of matter. Developing a better understanding of the atomic model through experiments with gases, scientists discovered the Ideal Gas Law, developed phase diagrams, and learned about the properties of supercritical fluids. Today's chemists are exploring new ways to control the interactions of atoms, with the goal of making better hydrogen-powered cars and new technologies for the long-term, underground storage of carbon dioxide to reduce greenhouse warming. Part of the series Chemistry: Challenges And Solutions.

  • Illustration of a strong wind blowing leaves across a hilly landscape. Caption: The stronger the wind, the louder the sound.

    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, 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.

  • Illustration of a mountain in heavy rain with darker earth running down one side of it. Caption: (narrator) Mudslides are very fluid, and flow very, very quickly.

    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, Moko and Totemie stay by the side of the lake for some time. One morning, a terrible sound shakes the village and as they wonder where it is coming from they see a wave of mud streaming down the mountain and threatening to swallow up the village. Moko approaches the wave of mud and pleads with it to keep the village safe. He remembers that Mei Lei knew how to speak to mountains and takes out the stone she gave him and is about to offer it to the mud as Mei Lei had offered hers to the volcano but Totemie stops him and offers her necklace instead. The village is saved and the mudslide flows into the lake. Moko promises himself to one day give Totemie what is dearest to him.

  • Illustration of a river and tree partially obscured by grayish-white thin clouds. Caption: When we can see through the cloud, we call it a mist.

    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 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.
