  • Person holding a paper cup with rubber bands and binder clips wrapped around a tubular object. Caption: (Nate) There's lots of ways of getting the straw into the potato.

    Analyzing samples from a planet, moon, or asteroid helps scientists learn about its chemistry, geologic history, and potential to support past or present life. Nearly every NASA surface mission collects samples. In this video from "Design Squad Nation," students design and build coring devices that can poke into a potato "asteroid" and extract a core sample. The students use the engineering design process, apply a variety of science concepts, and learn about NASA's exploration of the solar system. Part of the "Design Squad Nation" series.

  • Illustration of a solar system with planets on similar orbits except for one that is travelling on a skewed, debris filled elliptic. Caption: A dwarf planet could have a bumpy ride as it travels.

    Dwarf planets are a lot like regular planets. They both have enough mass and gravity to be nearly round, and they both travel through space in a path around the Sun. However, the path of the dwarf planet is full of objects like asteroids. A regular planet has a clear path around the sun.

  • The nine planets lined up behind the sun. Caption: Earth is the 3rd planet from the sun.

    Part of a series that features a wide variety of video footage, photographs, diagrams and colorful, animated graphics and labels. Begins with a simple definition of the term and concludes with a critical thinking question. For this particular video, students will focus on the term planet. Part of the Science Video Vocab Series.

  • A diagram comapres the color data from the planet Earth. Red and Blue lights are shown as reflected lights.

    Discover how scientists compare the reflected red, blue, and green light from planets in the solar system to identify distant planets. Carolyn Crow, an astronomer, describes how the amount of green, blue, and red light reflected by planets can be plotted. A diagram compares the color data of the planets and shows that Earth is easily distinguishable by its blue color.

  • Boiling orange-red magma. Caption: the most violent natural forces in our planet--

    Volcanoes and earthquakes! Geysers and boiling mud! Natural forces like these have been working for millions of years, changing the surface of the earth. Examines the layers of earth, a history of continental drift, plate tectonics, and other phenomena at work on our planet.

  • Waves at sunset looking towards an industrial platform held above the water. Caption: Worldwide, it makes up about a third of the energy supply.

    What is the best way to power the planet? Travel the globe with scholar Johan Norberg, from Morocco to Sweden and throughout the United States, as he explores the pros and cons of the eight main energy sources available to us: coal, oil, natural gas, nuclear, hydro, biomass, wind, and solar.

  • Glowing star shining light on a planet. Caption: That tells you there may be a planet around that star.

    Astronomers are beginning to locate thousands of planets that exist outside of the solar system. Scientists provide a behind-the-scenes look at the simple technique that astronomers are using to discover these curious new planets. Part of the "Science Out Loud" series.

  • Illustration of a dog scratching itself. Caption: Look! Everyone's scratching themselves.

    Down in the village square, everyone is scratching themselves. What exactly happened last night after the rain? Hanna and Olli lead the investigation with some help from Suzie the spider. Part of the "My Little Planet" series.

  • An illustration of solar system.

    Learn the three criteria for classifying planets and discover why Pluto is now considered part of the Kuiper belt. When Pluto was discovered in 1930, it was classified as the ninth planet in the solar system. However, advances in technology brought about new knowledge of Pluto, and it is now recognized as a dwarf planet.

  • Cartoon of two people, one person pointing. Caption: Look, Olli, this must be the thief.

    A hen has been kidnapped. The tracks Hanna and Olli discover lead them to believe that a bear is responsible. Following the footprints in the snow, the children find themselves in very close quarters with the presumed culprit. Part of "My Little Planet" series.

  • Illustration of a ship with 3 masts underwater. Caption: A pirate ship that's sunk.

    It is a hot summer night, and the children are unable to go to sleep. With the help of some of Suzie's magic, they find themselves floating on a large piece of ice in the ocean. They have a great time learning about the characteristics of polar climates. Part of the "My Little Planet" series.

  • Illustration of people crouching to look at water coming out of a pipe after the water has been processed. Caption: The station has almost totally cleaned the water.

    What happens to water once it goes down the drain? Suzie shrinks Hanna and Olli so they can get a closer look. They travel through the sewers to the water treatment plant and learn what happens to dirty water. Part of "My Little Planet" series.

  • Close up view of Neptune in space. Caption: What happened to Neptune's great dark spot?

    New discoveries regarding the Outer Planets are creating a fundamental rethinking of our solar system. Uranus is a toxic combination of hydrogen, helium and methane. Scientists speculate that the planet was knocked on its side after colliding with another body. Neptune's largest moon, Triton, is cold and barren, but some scientists speculate that liquid water might exist under Triton's icy surface. Cold and inhospitable, Pluto completes one orbit around the solar system every 248 years. Cutting-edge computer graphics are used to bring the universe down to earth to show what life would be like on other planets, and to imagine what kind of life forms might evolve in alien atmospheres.
