Michio Kaku: The Search for Life on Mars
Where should NASA go to look for intelligent life on Mars? To get to the truth, journalists say follow the money. Astronomers say follow the water. Dr. Michio Kaku says "if you were a Martian on Mars three billion years ago when Mars was probably a lush environment with liquid water oceans—and you realized that the water was escaping to the icecaps, escaping into outer space or going into the permafrost," then you would "probably go either into outer space to leave Mars or drill into
ISS Update: Powering the Space Exploration Vehicle
In the Space Vehicle Mock-Up Facility at Johnson Space Center in Houston, NASA Public Affairs Officer Brandi Dean talks with Abbie Ryan, lead engineer for the fuel cell of the multi-mission Space Exploration Vehicle (SEV).
In the latest Research and Technology Studies (RATS) mission, crew members are living and working inside the SEV to simulate a mission to an asteroid as the RATS team evaluates the technology, human-robotic systems and extravehicular equipment for future human exploration mi

Cómo se inventó la televisión
El ingeniero John Logie Baird inventó la televisión en 1926. Antes había intentado copiar el sistema de ondas electromagnéticas de la radio, pero los inversores no lo apoyaron. Aunque le costó más de lo que esperaba consiguió revolucionar el mundo de las telecomunicaciones gracias a la televisión. Este vídeo explica cómo surgió este invento. (1:49)
Session 3: The eTutor and online student relationship In this session you will be introduced to the fundamentals of building an effective working relationship with your online students. The student-tutor relationship is a very important
Purpose/Aim of this session
Lab: Horizontally Launched Projectiles (with uncertainty analysis)
This is a version of the time-tested lab where students roll a ball off a table top and use kinematics in two dimensions to try to predict where the ball will land. While many versions of this lab have been previously published, in this version students determine the uncertainty of all measurements and uncertainty of their prediction. The techniques and vocabulary are consistent with the Introduction to Measurement packet.
Alaska Brown Bear Trapped National Geographic Video. National Geographic researchers trap an Alaskan brown bear for research. Video is used for research on the life of the brown bear. Researchers are trying to discover more about the bear's movement. How is their movement affected by clear cut forests and roads? They use GPS systems to do this; in order to get the GPS on the bear they need to capture the bear and, of course, the bear does not
Deconstruction of the Bicycle Drive Train
This video explains who the derailer, chain, and other parts of the drive train work to provide gearing for a bike with multiple gears. This would be good for a science class and to help teach students about math as they see how gear ratios work.

ISS Update: RATS Principal Investigator Andrew Abercromby -- 08.29.12
NASA Public Affairs Officer Brandi Dean talks to the Research And Technology Studies (RATS) Principal Investigator Andrew Abercromby in the Space Vehicle Mock-Up Facility at Johnson Space Center in Houston.
The RATS team evaluates technology, human-robotic systems and extravehicular equipment for future human exploration missions in space. The team runs simulated missions, also known as analogs, at NASA's Johnson Space Center to provide a knowledge base that helps scientists and engineers desig
Hydrodamics II

Connections Between Texts - Maya Lin and Jane Jacobs
Students watch two segments about two women who have influenced architecture and the physical look of a city. After a class discussion, students will write and perform a Readers' Theater script in which Jacobs and Lin talk to each other about their ideas about architecture and life.
Why is this an important concept?
It is important for learners to be able to recognize connections between or among texts so they can identify common themes and conflicting information in their analyses o
