Capulin Volcano National Monument was born of fire and forces continually reshaping its surface. It’s a dramatic landscape of mountains, plains, and sky and provides access to some of nature’s most awe-inspiring work in New Mexico.
Mercury, the closest planet to the sun, has ice at its poles. It also has a tail like a comet due to its exposure to solar winds. Learn other facts about this planet from information gathered by the Messenger spacecraft.
Explore some properties of water with Petunia and Pinky. It's all about those hydrogen bonds. Terms discussed include adhesion, cohesion, surface tension, and specific heat. Part of "The Amoeba Sisters" series.
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.
Photographers and scientists try to explain their fascination with volcanoes and earthquakes. Focuses not on the geological causes, but on how and why these phenomena are photographed and studied. Uses actual footage and closeups for impact. James Earl Jones narrates.
This segment investigates the geosphere and its components, including plate tectonics, surface processes, and the rock cycle. It also discusses how geoscientists collect evidence to study past, present, and future changes by using computer-based technologies that model and monitor Earth’s systems and processes. Part of the "Visions of Earth" series.
To traverse the surface of the Moon or Mars, a vehicle must be able to think for itself. At NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory's testing ground, a team of scientists demonstrates the rover that will soon wander over the Martian landscape.
What is a seismic wave? Which of the four types is most destructive? Discover the science behind earthquakes with this animated video.
Experiments show the production and properties of carbon dioxide and its use as a fire extinguisher. The second part demonstrates the effect of surface area, temperature, and concentration on chemical reaction rates.
Ana Luz Porzecanski is a conservation biologist. She studies wildlife and ecosystems. In this interview, she discusses how humans and nature can coexist and thrive together. Part of the "Meet the Ologist" series.
Travel with Joel Greene and the Curiosity Quest crew to Alaska for this adventure. Watch as Joel learns about a massive glacier, gets up close to a real black bear, and spots humpback and killer whales off the shore. Part of the Curiosity Quest Series.
The Red Planet, with the most similar environment to Earth in the entire solar system, is a third alternative being explored for colonization. The discovery of ice on its surface has excited and encouraged many space scientists despite the many challenges to establishing a colony on Mars. Part of the "Space Colonies" series.
In this episode, host Dianna Cowern explores how magnetic paper works. She uses the paper on common electronic devices to reveal all their magnetic parts. Part of the "Physics Girl" series.
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 volcano. Part of the Science Video Vocab Series.
Ana Luz Porzecanski answers students' questions about Cuba in this video interview. She's a conservation biologist at the American Museum of Natural History. Part of the "Ask a Scientist About" series.
Through telescopic video and photos combined with animated graphics, students will learn about the layers of the sun, and its effects on earth, the moon, and other objects in the solar system. Part of the Real World Science series.
The Carboniferous rainforest collapse set the stage for a takeover that would be a crucial turning point in the history of terrestrial animal life. If it weren’t for this event in ancient history, human ancestors might never have made it out of the swamps. Part of the “Eons” series.
Recent discoveries of water at the moon’s poles and on Mars have encouraged scientists to develop projects that will enable humans to settle in these harsh, distant environments in the near future. This episode explores the challenges of setting up an orbital space colony or a settlement on an asteroid. Part of the "Space Colonies" series.
How do braces make teeth straight? They actually just copy the process that the rest of bones naturally undergo. Part of the "Science Out Loud" series.
