  • A graphical representation of the x y coordinate plane. 2 units from the origin are marked on the positive and negative sides of the x and y axes. An upward arrow extends from the origin to (0, 2). On screen text, what are scalars and vectors. Caption; woman, this vector's direction is 90 degrees.

    What is physics? The Standard Deviants introduce students to some of the basic vocabulary and concepts found in physics. Topics covered include scientific notation, numbers, units, scalars, and vectors. Part of the "Standard Deviants School: Physics" series.

  • An illustration of an elliptical orbit in space, with two foci. Lines are drawn from the foci to an object at the perigee. Caption: woman, an ellipse is a plane figure.

    The Standard Deviants explore Kepler's laws of planetary motion. Next, they discuss simple harmonic motion pendulums. Other topics covered include cycle, amplitude, wavelength, frequency, spring constants, and the restoring force. Part of the "Standard Deviants School: Physics" series.

  • A woman is in ski outfits. An animation of a red sphere with on screen text, more inertia, greater mass. Caption: The red sphere has greater mass.

    The Standard Deviants discuss the three laws of Sir Isaac Newton. This branch of study is also known as Newtonian physics, and it applies to everyday conditions of speed, time, and gravitational pull. Other topics covered include forces in equilibrium, mass as opposed to weight, inertia, static and kinetic friction, and tension. Part of the "Standard Deviants School: Physics" series.

  • illustration of Coelophysis. On screen text, dinosaurs. Caption: Female, Coelophysis lived about 220 million years ago.

    Over a thousand dinosaur species once roamed the Earth. Learn which ones were the largest and the smallest, what dinosaurs ate and how they behaved, as well as surprising facts about their extinction.

  • illustration of igneous rocks. On screen text, rocks that form from magma or lava. Caption: from cooling magma or lava are called igneous rocks.

    The Standard Deviants explore minerals. Viewers will learn all the basics, starting with that burning question: What is a mineral? Next, The Standard Deviants discuss magma, igneous rocks, plutons, and intrusive rocks. Part of "The Rockin' World of Geology" series.

  • An illustration depicts a school of fish swimming past an underwater crater. On screen text, turbidite. Caption: on underwater marine slopes,

    In this episode, The Standard Deviants explore two different kinds of rock. First, they tackle all there is to know about sedimentary rocks. Next, they move on to metamorphic rocks. Part of "The Rockin' World of Geology" series.

  • Illustration of the layers of a rock. A portion of the rock contains Sodium, Potassium, and Aluminum. Caption: Felsic magma cools to form igneous rocks such as granite.

    The Standard Deviants explore volcanoes and what causes them to erupt. They also discuss lava, pyroclastic materials, and the Ring of Fire. Then, it's time for a discussion on weathering. Part of "The Rockin' World of Geology" series.

  • Illustration of a glacier with rigid ice at the apex and pliable ice at the surface. Caption: The upper ice on the glacier stays rigid.

    Why do some rivers run straight while others twist and bend? What causes ocean waves? What is a glacier made of? Dive in with The Standard Deviants as they discuss the role of water in geology. Part of "The Rockin' World of Geology" series.

  • One puppet tells a story while a group listens to him. Spanish captions.

    Parakeet talks about the importance of living in harmony. For Amanda, harmony is when everyone does what she wants. The wolf explains that for some time now "poop missiles" launched by the careless duck during her flights have been falling on him. Amanda does not see the problem as she thinks it is good luck. The duck explains she is not the only one using the bathroom from the air. The public is divided between the terrestrial and flying animals. The fleas show a documentary on the importance of coexistence, harmony, agreements, and standards. Special guest, Nelson Mandela, explains how a divided society like his had to create agreements to live together in peace.

  • A young girl looking through a microscope. Caption: much more powerful is a standard light microscope.

    Provides an overview of magnifiers and microscopes. Identifies a microscope's parts, use and care, and shows how to handle slides. Covers the development and changes of the microscope and its contribution to scientific discovery. Compares the standard light and the electron microscopes. Uses multiple examples of magnification to show why this tool is important to research.

  • Dense points of light on a black background. Caption: The oldest could be 11 to 13 billion years old,

    How far is a star or a galaxy? Scaling and measuring the cosmos is a complex problem. Scientists are integrating mathematical applications and scientific technology to create measurement standards. Distances are so vast they are described in light years, and nearby stars are measured by trigonometry. Farther out, astronomers use standard candle measurement for deep space exploration.

  • Trace wears scarfs around his shoulders and talks. Caption: We are here, today, to lay to rest the kilogram.

    Hidden in a vault outside Paris, vacuum-sealed under three bell jars, sits a palm-sized metal cylinder known as “Le Grand K.” Forged in 1879 from an alloy of platinum and iridium, it was hailed as the perfect kilogram—the gold standard by which other kilograms would be judged. However, it is wasting away, and scientists are scrambling for a more reliable standard. Part of the "Uno Dos of Trace" series.
