Real World Telekinesis (feat. Neil Turok)

Thousands of years ago, indigenous farmers in the Amazon created exceptionally fertile soil. Today, scientists think it could restore the succession of rainforest plants and help reverse the effects of climate change.

In this video Paul Andersen explains how Le Chatelier's Principle can be used to predict the effect of disturbances to equilibrium. When a reversible reaction is at equilibrium disturbances (in concentration, temperature, pressure,...

Discover a process that truly demonstrates nature's grit: ecological succession! The Amoeba Sisters introduce both primary and secondary succession

In this video Paul Andersen explains how disturbances to a reversible reaction at equilibrium affect the equilibrium constant and the reaction quotient. For example if the concentration is changed the reaction will move to reestablish...

Hatshepsut was a female pharaoh during the New Kingdom in Egypt. Twenty years after her death, somebody smashed her statues, took a chisel and attempted to erase the pharaoh's name and image from history. But who did it? And why? Kate...

In the world of ecology, the only constant is change - but change can be good. Today Hank explains ecological succession and how ecological communities change over time to become beautiful, biodiverse mosaics.

We use a supersaturated solution of sodium ethanoate to demonstrate instant crystallisation. Sodium ethanoate is added to water and is then heated to allow all of the crystals to dissolve. When it is cooled it forms a supersaturated...

Learn about the different types of waves, including transverse and longitudinal waves. Understand how these waves move through different mediums and their properties. Discover the speed of sound and how it varies depending on the...

How does light work for sleep? Light has a strong influence over the timing of your circadian rhythm. Light triggers the shut down of melatonin in your brain. So we can use this to our advantage when trying to regulate sleep...

The video explains how waves can be categorized according to two sets of criteria: transverse or longitudinal, and mechanical or electromagnetic. It gives examples of waves that fit each category, such as water waves as a transverse...
