People have struggled to understand some hypotheses scientists had, which are correct but were disclaimed back then. So here’s the 5 scientists and their ideas that nobody believed. Chapters 0:00 0:07 0:15 0:23 0:30 0:38

In which John Green, Hank Green, and Emily Graslie teach you about our Sun, and the formation of the planets. We're going to focus on the formation and development of the Earth, because that's where people live. You'll learn about the...

Do 97% of climate scientists really agree that humans are the main cause of climate change? Yep! Here's what the 97 percent statistic *really* means.

You might think of plate tectonics as destructive since it's the ultimate force behind earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions. But the slow movement of our planet's surface does a lot more than shake things up now and then. Some...

The earth is our home, and while we like to think we know a good deal about it, there are still some mysteries that scientists are looking to unravel. Chapters PLATE TECTONICS 1:45 EXTROVERSION Sponsored by: Jonathan Hood 3:50...

You need it, you love it, you probably live on it: it's land! But have you ever thought about where land even comes from?

It’s not easy to find active plate tectonics on other worlds, but doing so may bring us one step closer to finding a planet that can support life.

For upside-down mirrors, super hot volcanic chimneys, and neon rocks with living microorganisms, look no further than the Guaymas Basin in the Gulf of California.

The ground under our feet is constantly moving, and to measure these movements, researchers have turned to an unlikely helper: quasars that are millions of light-years away.

NASA’s Magellan mission gave us unprecedented insight into Venus’s rocky surface, and even now, more than 25 years after the mission ended, it’s still one of our main tools for learning about our mysterious, next-door neighbor.

Thanks to some amazing scientific insights, we know a lot about the interior of our planet - even though we’ve never even made it through the crust.

The Great Dying hit life hard, but the species that survived took over the planet and diversified into many interesting forms, including the dinosaurs!

You might have heard that Earth is due for a complete flip of its magnetic field. And while our planet does have a history of this behavior, predictions of when it might happen are too complex to estimate a date for.

Marie Tharp's topographical maps increased our understanding of both the ocean floor and the processes that move the earth's crust.

In this video Paul Andersen explains how plate tectonics explains the large-scale system interactions on our planet. Large plates float on the mantle and interact to form the major landforms on the planet. Evidence for plate tectonics...

Today we're going to tell the story of a quiet revolution in the 1960s that shifted our entire understanding of how the Earth works. We currently believe that the Earth's broken outer shell rises from the mantle and folds back in - kind...

Hank introduces us to Alfred Wegener, a voraciously curious guy who proposed the original theory of continental drift - and was laughed at for it.

Have you ever wondered how our earth was created? Here is a brief history about the Earth.

In this video Paul Andersen explains in more detail the history of the Earth. He shows how the history of the Earth is written in the rocks that are built up over time. Fossils allow us to compare different rock layers relative to one...

In this video Paul Andersen explains how rock is formed and changed on the planet. The video begins with a brief description of rocks, minerals, and the rock cycle. Plate tectonics is used to describe structure near plate boundaries. Hot...

What happened March 27, 1964? Alaska knows very wellÉ Join us to learn more about earthquakes with host Hank Green on this infusion of SciShow.

Mr. Andersen describes how plate tectonics shapes our planet. Continental and oceanic platers are contrasted and major plate boundaries are discussed.

In which John Green, Hank Green, and Emily Graslie teach you about our Sun, and the formation of the planets. We're going to focus on the formation and development of the Earth, because that's where people live. You'll learn about the...
