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

How is wind created?
When air is in motion, wind is created. Temperature differences are responsible for this. When air warms up, it rises and colder air flows in. This is the cool wind that we feel. There is almost always wind on the coasts. Author: ZDF/Pur+/Autorenkombinat/Tobias Schönke/Carina Schulz/Jochen Schmidt

The Solar System's Boundaries | NASA Planetary Sciences
Discover what happens at the outer edges of our solar system, where the solar wind interacts with interstellar space. The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) is a mission to study the boundary between the solar system and interstellar space. Voyager 1 and 2 have provided some direct measurements f
How does a wind turbine work?
Wind turbines use the energy of the wind and convert it into electricity. In doing so, they use the physical principle of buoyancy. Author: ZDF/Pur+/Autorenkombinat/Tobias Schönke/Rita Gerhardus-Faust/Jochen Schmidt Translation and dubbing: alugha Click here to see more videos: https://alugha.com
Solar and lunar year
Ancient Greek scholars knew the difference between solar and lunar years. While the earth orbits the sun once in a year, the moon orbits the earth about 12 times. Author: ZDF/Terra X/Tobias Schultes/WENDEVARGA Translation & dubbing: alugha Click here to see more videos: https://alugha.com/TerraX

ScienceCasts: Solar Minimum is Coming
Intense solar activity such as sunspots and solar flares subsides during solar minimum, but that doesn’t mean the sun becomes dull. Solar activity simply changes form. Click here to see more videos: https://alugha.com/NASA Visit http://science.nasa.gov/ for more.
Total Solar Eclipse Animation
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
