Black Hole Apocalypse | How to Detect Gravitational Waves

Learn about gravitational waves and how they can be detected in this video from NOVA: Black Hole Apocalypse. Use this resource to visualize abstract concepts related to waves and wave interactions and to provide opportunities for students to develop and use models and to communicate explanations wit

How a wave is created

Winds cause water particles to move in a circular motion. In the process, they pass the energy on to the next particle, which in turn passes it on to the next. This is how the wave motion continues.

The Relationship Between Clouds and Atmospheric Waves

For more Science Videos: https://lt.org/ * Our planet’s cloudiness has been heretofore understood as being controlled by the slowly varying, large scale, atmospheric circulation known as the Hadley cell. In this video, CLAUDIA STEPHAN argues that this model is overly simplistic. * Bringing recent me

Making Boats Fly

Learn how advances in technology allow boats to go faster than ever before in this video from NOVA: “Making Stuff Faster.” Host and technology columnist David Pogue examines two factors that limit speed—energy and resistance—and describes how Oracle Team USA maximizes the speed of its boat. Instead

Infrared: More Than Your Eyes Can See

The electromagnetic spectrum, spanning energies and wavelengths from radio waves to gamma rays, encompasses all forms of light. Infrared radiation, located in the range just beyond visible light, is emitted by all matter and is very useful in gathering data about Earth and space. In this video segme

Jupiter's Hot Spots | NASA Planetary Sciences

Discover dark features in Jupiter's atmosphere called "hot spots," and their connection to large-scale atmospheric waves. David Choi describes his research on hot spots clearings in Jupiter's atmosphere that appear bright in infrared light. Analysis of data from the Cassini mission in 2000 reveal ho

Neglect - The Life of Forgotten Children

Children who are physically, cognitively, or emotionally neglected often suffer from anxiety. As a result, her body produces stress hormones. When this happens frequently, these hormones become toxic to the developing brain, which can later suppress emotional and cognitive well-being for a lifetime.

Neglect Theory: The Lives of the Forgotten Children

Children who experience physical, cognitive or emotional neglect, often face anxiety. As a result, their body produces stress hormones. If this happens a lot, these hormones become toxic for their developing brain, which then later can repress emotional and cognitive well-being for life. Non profit

Communicating with Light

Observe a group of children using light to communicate over a distance in this live-action video produced by WGBH. Use the video to observe strategies for using light to communicate across a distance as well as to design a light signal code to help you communicate to solve a problem from different l
