Look out, earthquake! The walls start to shake and the building sways violently. Seismic ground motion and the resonance effect can make tall buildings move for up to several minutes. So what should you do to be safe in a high rise building during a big tremor? First, get under a desk for protection
Solar eclipses result from the alignment of the Sun, Moon, and Earth. Total solar eclipses — in which the Sun is completely blocked by the Moon — are a spectacular and rare sight to witness. In this animation adapted from NOVA, see why solar eclipses occur and observe a simulated total eclipse. This
Learn about the evolution of Earth's moon, from its initial formation to its current state, in this video from NASA. Real satellite imagery, as well as simulations, explore how the Moon has changed over time. The video looks at how the Moon likely formed about 4.5 billion years ago, how impacts from
Learn about Neptune's gravitational effect on dust contained in the Kuiper belt and discover how it could help astronomers look for planets around other stars. This video from NASA explores the idea that if would-be alien astronomers were looking for planets around the Sun, they could potentially de
This video from NASA introduces a proposed mission to study potential habitable worlds around gas giants such as Jupiter. The Europa Jupiter System Mission, a proposed joint venture between NASA and ESA (the European Space Agency), would send two spacecraft to study Jupiter and its four largest moon

Exploring melting under microgravity conditions – improving industrial casting processes One of the focal points of research onboard the International Space Station (ISS) is the investigation of crystal growth in metal alloys. Under microgravity conditions, differences in density in the molten mate
What draws us to horror movies and why do we keep coming back for more? In this video, our team of experts explores the fascinating psychology behind our love for all things horror. From the thrill of being scared to the adrenaline rush of a jump scare, we delve into the science of fear and why it's
