Spotlight on Research - Continuous Ultrasonic Welding

Click here to see more videos: https://alugha.com/CalvinRans Time for another research highlight out of the ASM department at TUDelft: Continuous ultrasonic welding is a novel joining method for high speed assembly of thermoplastic composite structures. Two parts are fused together by locally heat

Solar Wind's Effect on Earth

The Sun produces a solar wind — a continuous flow of charged particles — that can affect us on Earth. It can, for example, disrupt communications, navigation systems, and satellites. Solar activity can also cause power outages, such as the extensive Canadian blackout in 1989. In this video segment a

Soaring Over Mars

Tour three Martian landscapes and find out how erosion and water affected the surface of Mars, in this video adapted from NASA. Flyover images created from HiRISE (High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment), an instrument on board the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, show the structure and composition

NOVA: Becoming Human | Diatoms Measure Climate Change

Learn how scientists used the fossils of one-celled aquatic organisms, called diatoms, to understand ancient climate conditions in eastern Africa, in this video from NOVA: Becoming Human. White layers of a rock formation consist of deep-water diatoms and darker layers consist of shallow-water diatom

Curiosity Rover Hits Paydirt on Mars | NASA Planetary Sciences

Learn about the discovery of conditions that would have been suitable for life on ancient Mars. In 2013, the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) science team released initial findings from its first drilled sample using the Curiosity rover. MSL scientist Joel Hurowitz describes the sedimentary rock sample

Earth as a System

Earth is a complex, evolving body characterized by ceaseless change. To understand Earth on a global scale means using a scientific approach to consider how Earth's component parts and their interactions have evolved, how they function, and how they may be expected to further evolve over time. This

Planetary Geology | NASA Planetary Sciences

Meet NASA scientist Lynn Carter, who studies the geology of planetary surfaces, in this video adapted from NASA's Goddard Space Science Center. Carter describes how scientists learn about Earth by studying other planets and moons. Objects such as the Moon have older surfaces, which serve as a record

Earth System: Ice and Global Warming

Scientific evidence strongly suggests that different regions on Earth do not respond equally to increased temperatures. Ice-covered regions appear to be particularly sensitive to even small changes in global temperature. This video segment adapted from NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center details how
