Nothing's final yet, but there might be a drone, called the Mars Helicopter, on the upcoming Mars 2020 rover.

The urge to jump or high place phenomenon apparently springs from a distortion of our perceptions. Lab tests have shown that people estimate disgusting things, such as feces, to be closer than they really are. Another example is...

Research engineers and students in the University of California, Los Angeles, Biomechatronics Lab are designing artificial limbs to be more sensational, with the emphasis on sensation. With support from the National Science Foundation,...

The institution of the great British pub has been in slow decline for decades. In this video we take a closer look at the rise and fall of the British pub and examine what has made our pubs so vulnerable, including the introduction of...

So you may have heard of Moore's Law and while it isn't truly a law it has pretty closely estimated a trend we've seen in the advancement of computing technologies. Moore's Law states that we'll see approximately a 2x increase in...

Mr. Andersen defines Newton's three laws of motion. He describes how the first law relates to inertia, how the second law relates to mass and acceleration, and how the third law allows a rocket to launch.

Paul Andersen explains how the rate law can be used to determined the speed of a reaction over time. Zeroth-order, first-order and second-order reactions are described as well as the overall rate law of a reaction. The rate of a...

In this video Paul Andersen explains how Newton's Third Law applies to all objects. When an object applies a force to another object (Action) and equal and opposite force (Reaction) is applied to the original object. Several scenarios...

In this video Paul Andersen explains how we can use Coulomb's law to predict the structure of atoms. These predictions can be verified through the use of Photoelectron Spectroscopy (PES). Electron's are help around the nucleus because...

Chat with a friend about an established scientific theory, and she might reply, "Well, that's just a theory." But a conversation about an established scientific law rarely ends with "Well, that's just a law." Why is that? What is the...

If you’ve been around the internet long enough, you’ve probably heard of the “conspiracy” that birds aren’t real (It's not a real conspiracy theory; it was started as a joke). Well for decades, scientists have been using fake birds (even...

Is it Better to Walk or Run in the Rain

In today’s episode we’ll explore thermodynamics and some of the ways it shows up in our daily lives. We’ll learn the zeroth law of thermodynamics, what it means to reach a thermal equilibrium, and define the first law of thermodynamics....

I'm sure you've heard of Isaac Newton and maybe of some of his laws. Like, that thing about "equal and opposite reactions" and such. But what do his laws mean? And how do they help us understand the world around us? In this episode of...

Talk Show all-star Kallie Moore returns to tell us about the exciting things happening over at Eons, and Jessi stops by with not one but two poke-y guests!

Why do we dance? We dance to music because of neural connections in our brain. These connections link the part that perceives music, the auditory cortex to the regions that help us move, the motor regions. We might have started creating...

Carrying a pole helps the walker increase their rotational inertia, which aids in maintaining stability while walking over the narrow rope. The pole also adds more weight below the center of gravity of the walker, which is another bonus...

The buzzing sound that power lines produce is caused by corona discharge. Corona discharge is an electrical discharge that occurs when a fluid (like air) surrounding an electrically-charged conductor becomes ionized. In simple terms, its...

TikTok's inversion filter reverses a facial selfie and shows you what your face looks like when its not reflected in a mirror. Or, in other words, how the world sees you and not what the mirror shows. Thus, the effect of this reversal is...

Vitamin D. I don't know why so many people are obsessed with it, but there are two new studies out about it in JAMA Internal Medicine. We've even got multiple episodes of Healthcare Triage about it. What's one more? This is Healthcare...
