Batagay (aka Batagaika) Crater goes by many names. Scientists call it a retrogressive thaw megaslump; the internet may know it best as the Doorway to the Underworld. And since it opened up in the Siberian permafrost over half a century ago, it's been getting bigger.

What's more interesting: learning about the phases of matter or thinking about what you're going to have for lunch? Now you can do both! Physicist Madelyn shares her hypothesis that all foods can be categorized as a soup, salad, or sandwich, and walks you through the scientific reasoning to prove it. This fun talk is guaranteed to leave you a little bit smarter and a whole lot hungrier. Madelyn Leembruggen is a Ph.D. candidate in theoretical physics at Harvard University. Her research interests are broad; she wants to understand how microscopic (dis)order gives rise to macroscopic structure. Madelyn is dedicated to making physics an equitable, inclusive, and accessible space for people from all backgrounds, and with this goal she creates science content for all ages. When she isn't doing physics she's brewing coffee, thrift shopping, or cooking Indo-Dutch food for her family. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

Nuclear fusion underpins some of the most basic processes in our universe and holds the promise of virtually limitless, clean, carbon-free energy. Dr. Anne White, Professor of Nuclear Science and Engineering at The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has been challenged to explain the nature of nuclear fusion to 5 different people; a child, a teen, a college student, a grad student, and an expert.

Did you know a drop of water can reveal the secrets of the US Dollar? Because of water's surface tension, a water dropper acts at a lens! Humans have been bending light to their will for ages. We’ve progressed from starting fires with ice spheres over 2000 years ago to streaming videos with fiber optic cables today, and we owe it all to the field of photonics. ℹ️ This video supports Lesson 1 of Galactic Polymath’s “Photon Engineers” Unit. Discover the secrets printed on the US dollar bill using a water drop-lens, and explore lens innovations throughout history with a timeline puzzle sort. Students will demonstrate an engineering mindset, using lenses to solve problems through magnification or focusing. "Embark on a journey through time and space to understand what light really is and how humans use it. From starting fires with sunlight, to sending messages to other planets, to current research in photonics, students will become more curious about light in their daily lives!" 👉 https://www.galacticpolymath.com/lessons/en-US/9 This work was developed in collaboration with Prof. Tom Folland at the University of Iowa with funding from the National Science Foundation. His lab focuses on nanophotonics and quantum materials research, from learning about fundamental properties to designing new devices and applications.

DCIs • PS4.A-M1: A simple wave has a repeating pattern with a specific wavelength, frequency, and amplitude. • PS4.C-H1: Multiple technologies based on the understanding of waves and their interactions with matter are part of everyday experiences in the modern world (e.g., medical imaging, communications, scanners) and in scientific research. They are essential tools for producing, transmitting, and capturing signals and for storing and interpreting the information contained in them. • PS4.B-M2: The path that light travels can be traced as straight lines, except at surfaces between different transparent materials (e.g., air and water, air and glass) where the light path bends.

Turning a deep-sea passion into singular discoveries. Read the blog to explore more about button corals and Dr. Owens' research: https://www.wowstem.org/post/joan-murrell-owens Adapted from "Joan Murrell Owens and the Button Corals" by David Obuchowski A married couple, Sarah Pedry and David Obuchowski collaborate on various projects. In addition to their "Scenes & Sketches" of Women Naturalists for The Hairpin, Sarah and David will have their first children's picture book published in March, 2023 by mineditionUS (Astra Publishing). It is entitled How Birds Sleep and is available for pre-order/purchase wherever books are sold. They are quite active in their own independent work, as well. Learn more about the book here: https://astrapublishinghouse.com/product/how-birds-sleep-9781662650970/ Sarah is an artist and illustrator who is deeply inspired by nature. A voracious researcher, she is also a teaching artist at the Denver Botanic Gardens School of Botanical Art & Illustration. There, she teaches classes on a variety of subjects from nature journaling to abstract art. Among other places, her work has been featured at the High Line in New York City. Her website is SarahPedry.com David is a prolific writer of both fiction and nonfiction whose long-form essays focus on culture, the arts, and the human experience as it relates to cars. His short fiction has been nominated for multiple Pushcart Prizes as well as inclusion in the Best American Short Stories and Best of the Net anthologies. He is the creator, host, producer, and writer of the audio documentary series, TEMPEST, which was recently adapted into a television series.

Join Madelyn as she demonstrates the incredible piezoelectric effect - how squeezing certain crystals can generate electric sparks that look like lightning! Learn about the science behind this phenomenon and why only certain crystals have this power based on their atomic arrangement and symmetry. This video supports Part 3 of "Electric Crystals: A tour of crystal symmetry and function through comics."
