What does an electron really look like? I mean, if we zoom in all the way. Is it a sizeless speck of charge? Is it a multidimensional vortex of quantum strangeness? Is it the boundary of a tiny universe with universe-electrons of its...

Why is the middle of a hurricane sometimes so clear and calm?

Occasionally, a volcano coughs up a ring of fog. How does it create that whimsical shape, and how similar is it to the smoke rings humans can make?<br/>

Niels Bohr, a Danish Physicist said “Everything we call real is made of things that cannot be regarded .” Is what we see perceived to be real or is it an illusion?

In the world of our mind’s eye, light travels in a straight line....

As winter approaches, V-shaped flocks glide overhead as the world's birds begin their long treks to warmer climates. Humans used to have some pretty crazy theories about where birds went for winter, like the moon, or to the bottom of...

Bumblebees fly, lights turn on, and you can ride a bike without falling over. We all know these things to be true, but what you may not know is the real reason behind why they work. Join Olivia to bust seven myths about motion.

Have you ever wondered what those things are on airplane wings? You know, those little angled bits of metal? Watch to learn what they are and how they’re used!

A look at what turbulence is (in fluid flow), and a result by Kolmogorov regarding the energy cascade of turbulence.

You might think that fish ride the undercurrents with all their buds to avoid the hungry mouths of predators - safety in numbers, right? But, it turns out, there’s more to consider when asking why fish swim in schools.

Our energy future depends on nuclear fusion, says Michel Laberge. The plasma physicist runs a small company with a big idea for a new type of nuclear reactor that could produce clean, cheap energy. His secret recipe? High speeds,...

Box-shaped fish might seem like they don't have the most efficient body shape, but there are some surprising perks to being an underwater cuboid creature.

Some people argue that the Polar Vortex is evidence against global climate change, but there’s actually growing evidence that a warming Arctic means colder winters.

Our respiratory systems do a great job of protecting us, but they are no match for the smallest pollution particles created by the modern world.

A look at what turbulence is (in fluid flow), and a result by Kolmogorov regarding the energy cascade of turbulence.

Jupiter's storms cover the planet, but the ones at the planet’s poles have mystified astronomers for years: why haven’t they merged together yet?

Some birds fly in V shapes because it has many benefits, but other birds fly in clumps instead. Why would they do that?

The shower isn't supposed to be a dangerous place, but once you turn on the water, you might be attacked by your shower curtain. But don't blame the curtain! Blame physics!

Hank describes three of the whackest weather phenomena on Earth: atmospheric rivers, fire tornadoes, and ball lightning. Super interesting and super weird.

Hank tells us about the enormous concentrations of plastic debris floating around in the Pacific Ocean, why they're there and why they're a problem.

A horseshoe vortex cloud is an odd kind of cumulus cloud that is usually small and brief, so it goes unnoticed. It’s shaped like a horseshoe. Some sort of up and down air motion or spin in the air, known as a vortex, creates these, but...

Science Kids Hurricanes, Tornadoes, Bomb Cyclones, Atmospheric Rivers, Floods and Extreme Weather

The video provides an overview of tornadoes, describing them as fast-spinning columns of air that can cause immense destruction. It...
