Can you avoid the boulder field and land safely, just before your fuel runs out, as Neil Armstrong did in 1969? Our version of this classic video game accurately simulates the real motion of the lunar lander with the correct mass, thrust, fuel consumption rate, and lunar gravity. The real lunar lander is very hard to control.

Explore the interactions between a compass and bar magnet. Discover how you can use a battery and wire to make a magnet! Can you make it a stronger magnet? Can you make the magnetic field reverse?

This video from KET traces the energy transformations that occur when coal is burned to produce electricity. Some of the mechanical processes are also described.

In this video segment adapted from ZOOM, cast members make a seismometer and experiment with different ways to make it register movement.

This class is a global survey of the great transformation in history known as the "Industrial Revolution." Topics include origins of mechanized production, the factory system, steam propulsion, electrification, mass communications, mass production and automation. Emphasis on the transfer of technology and its many adaptations around the world. Countries treated include Great Britain, France, Germany, the US, Sweden, Russia, Japan, China, and India. Includes brief reflection papers and a final paper.

A realistic mass and spring laboratory. Hang masses from springs and adjust the spring stiffness and damping. You can even slow time. Transport the lab to different planets. A chart shows the kinetic, potential, and thermal energy for each spring.

Learn about position, velocity, and acceleration in the "Arena of Pain". Use the green arrow to move the ball. Add more walls to the arena to make the game more difficult. Try to make a goal as fast as you can.

This video segment adapted from Discovering Women profiles Fermilab physicist and Harvard professor Melissa Franklin.

Try the new "Ladybug Motion 2D" simulation for the latest updated version. Learn about position, velocity, and acceleration vectors. Move the ball with the mouse or let the simulation move the ball in four types of motion (2 types of linear, simple harmonic, circle).

Learn about position, velocity, and acceleration graphs. Move the little man back and forth with the mouse and plot his motion. Set the position, velocity, or acceleration and let the simulation move the man for you.

Build your own system of heavenly bodies and watch the gravitational ballet. With this orbit simulator, you can set initial positions, velocities, and masses of 2, 3, or 4 bodies, and then see them orbit each other.

In this video adapted from NOVA scienceNOW, find out about the discovery of a new building material, the carbon nanotube, whose physical properties could theoretically enable the creation of a 22,000-mile elevator to space.

This article provides background information related to natural resources of the poles, and renewable and non-renewable energy.

Produce light by bombarding atoms with electrons. See how the characteristic spectra of different elements are produced, and configure your own element's energy states to produce light of different colors.

Listen in as 15-year-old Haley has a conversation with the Internet. Along the way, she learns a few things about Internet safety.

The Internet can be a cool place, but like in the real world, everyone needs help to stay safe online. This video encourages teens to reach out to the people they trust if they ever experience anything that makes them feel weird or uncomfortable.

Being helpful and kind online is the best way to keep the Internet safe and fun for everybody. This video helps young children understand why it’s important to treat others how they want to be treated, even when they’re online.

This video clip addresses how kids are using cell phones today and consequences of kids taking nude photos. Kids taking these kind of photos of themselves or others under the age of 18 is considered manufacturing child pornography which is a felony in Utah. Sending this kind of photo is considered distributing child pornography. Having this kind of photo on your cell phone or computer is considered possession of child pornography. Once a photo is e-mailed or posted on the Internet it is virtually impossible to control how it is used and distributed.

When Alex runs into a bully on the playground, he knows what to do. But how can Alex handle the bully when he starts posting mean messages and texting threats? This video gives kids strategies for handling cyber bullies, including saving copies of inappropriate messages and telling a trusted adult.

How should Joe deal with Lamer Bill’s threatening emails, texts and web posts? This video explains what cyber bullying is and gives a simple, solid strategy for handling it: save the messages and tell a trusted adult.
