Sliders (for High School)
In this hands-on activity, students learn about two types of friction static and kinetic and the equation that governs them. They also measure the coefficient of static friction and the coefficient of kinetic friction experimentally.
Chlorine Monoxide from new Microwave Limb Sounder on Aura (WMS)
Chlorine monoxide (ClO) in the atmosphere as measured by the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) instrument on NASAs Aura satellite. MLS can simultaneously measure several trace gases and ozone-destroying chemicals in the upper troposphere and photosphere. In this series of animations we present chlorine monoxide (ClO), hydrogen chloride (HCl), nitric acid (HNO3), ozone (O3), water vapor (H2O) and temperature measurements. These are first light data taken when the MLS was operated for the first time. C

Araona Crater (Iturralde Structure)
The Araona Crater (also known as the Iturralde Structure) is a suspected crater from an impactor which struck northern Bolivia approximately 20,000 years ago. The feature is believed to have been caused by a short period comet striking at 70 kilometers per second and splattering into the muddy alluvial flood plain in the Lower Amazon jungle. The impact created a circular depression which is now roughly 8 kilometers across and 3 meters deep. The structure was discovered in 1988 Landsat data, but
The Psychology Of Emotions, Feelings and Thoughts
Mark Pettinelli
This book makes the statement that thought, action and feeling can occur in any order. "Action turned into feeling, which caused you to think and therefore turned into thought. Thought, action […]

Thailand Election 2011: New Mandala's early predictions - Farrelly and Walker
New Mandala Co-Editors Dr Nicholas Farrelly and Dr Andrew Walker give their early impressions on which way the Thailand 2011 election might go. This video was recorded at 6pm (Canberra time) on the day of the election before the polls closed in Thailand.
Farrelly and Walker will be back with another video later in the evening. You can follow all the action through regular updates on New Mandala: http://asiapacific.anu.edu.au/newmandala
Thailand Election 2011: New Mandala's post result wrap-up - Farrelly and Walker
New Mandala Co-Editors Dr Nicholas Farrelly and Dr Andrew Walker analyse the outcome of the Thailand election in the second and final video update of election night. This video was recorded at 11.30pm, Canberra time.
In this video Farrelly and Walker talk about the result, Twitter's role in informing people, coalition partners, the future role of Thaksin Shinawatra, what's ahead for Yingluck Shinawatra and how their earlier predictions stacked up.

Waldo Lake from Landsat: No Labels
Zoom into the Waldo Lake Wilderness Area in the Oregon Cascades after a forest fire in the summer of 1998, from Landsat data taken August 4, 1998
Viewing the PEM Instrument on UARS
UARS measures the flux of energetic particles from space using the Particle Environment Monitor, PEM. These high energy particles cause ozone depletion at high altitudes by producing nitrogen and hydrogen radicals.

Urban Signatures: Latent Heat Flux
Big cities influence the environment around them. For example, urban areas are typically warmer than their surroundings. Cities are strikingly visible in computer models that simulate the Earths land surface. This visualization shows latent heat flux predicted by the Land Information System (LIS) for a day in June 2001. Latent heat flux is lower in the cities because there is less evaporation there. Only part of the global computation is shown, focusing on the highly urbanized northeast corridor
20-Year Arctic Surface Temperature Trend
Here the 20-year surface temperature trend is shown over the Arctic region. This animation shows the warming and cooling regions in steps from the regions of least change to the areas of greatest change. Blue hues indicate cooling regions; red hues depict warming. Light regions indicate less change while darker regions indicate more. The temperature scale used ranges from -0.4 to +0.4 degrees Celsius in increments of .02 degrees. (See color bar below)
Clouds over the Great Lakes from GOES-11: August 1, 2000
This animation is one of a series showing the first data from GOES-11. The data shown was taken at one-minute intervals.
