Aboard the International Space Station, Expedition 53 Commander Randy Bresnik of NASA discussed life and research on the orbital outpost during an educational in-flight event Sept. 27 with students gathered at the National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C. The so-called “STEM in 30” group of students is focused on investigations regarding station science and Bresnik’s contributions to the research being conducted in orbit.
NASA held a news conference Feb. 22 at the agency’s headquarters to discuss the finding by the Spitzer Space Telescope of seven Earth-sized planets around a tiny, nearby, ultra-cool dwarf star. Three of these planets are in the habitable zone, the region around the star in which liquid water is most likely to thrive on a rocky planet. This is the first time so many planets have been found in a single star’s habitable zone, and the first time so many Earth-sized planets have been found around the same star. The finding of this planetary system, called TRAPPIST-1, is the best target yet for studying the atmospheres of potentially habitable, Earth-sized worlds
Aboard the International Space Station, Expedition 50 Commander Shane Kimbrough and Flight Engineer Peggy Whitson of NASA discussed life and research aboard the orbital laboratory during a question and answer session Feb. 1 with social media users and traditional media at Space Center Houston, the visitor’s center next door to the Johnson Space Center in Houston. The event was part of a behind the scenes tour of Johnson leading up to Super Bowl LI in Houston.

The Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum’s STEM in 30 series of live, fast-paced, 30-minute webcasts are designed to increase interest and engagement in STEM for students. This episode of STEM in 30 explores the engineering behind various techniques used in the past to land spacecraft on other planets, including rocket thrusters, giant airbags, and a sky crane. The episode also examines what techniques might be used for future missions.
In this episode of Science 360 we’ll learn about infant cognition, bamboo being affected by climate change, and a new virtual reality system. Also we’ll have a Chalk Talk about the electromagnetic spectrum.
Meet Dr. Kristofer Helgen, a zoologist at the National Museum of Natural History. Did you know that we are still finding and naming new mammals around the world? From field expeditions and museum specimens, Kris has discovered about 100 mammal species. Hear about his surprising find of the “Olinguito” in cloud forests of Ecuador. Consider how studying mammals helps us understand how the Earth is changing. Get a glimpse of the modern technologies used to describe species and their environments. Ponder how much biodiversity still awaits discovery.
Join California State Parks Docent Doug at La Purisima Mission State Historic Park to discover Yop, a remarkable material used by the Chumash people since time immemorial. This material helped to revolutionize the Chumash economy!
Rev. Dr. Bernice A. King is a global thought leader, peace advocate, and CEO of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center For Nonviolent Social Change (The King Center), which was founded by her mother as the official living memorial to the life, work, and legacy of her father, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. As part of the Helen Edition Lecture Series, Dr. King talks with Cheryl Anderson, Dean of UC San Diego’s School of Public Health, about her work educating youth and adults around the world about the nonviolent principles and strategies modeled by her parents.
Lucy’s 1974 discovery reshaped our understanding of early hominins. Geological studies dated her to 3.21 million years ago. Questions arose about her life and death, leading to investigations into her burial site and skeletal preservation. Found scattered on the surface, less than 40% of her skeleton was preserved. Some parts were articulated, indicating rapid burial, possibly by a river. Missing elements suggest scavenging and erosion. Debate surrounds her cause of death, with theories including a fall or predation. Bone fractures hint at trauma, but the exact circumstances remain unclear. Geological evidence disputes death by mudslide or flood. Tooth marks on her bones lack conclusive evidence of predation. These debates underline Lucy’s enduring influence on paleoanthropology, sparking ongoing research into human evolution.
Host Dave Kelly welcomes Dr. Don Haviland, student Markeshia Babers, and Graduate Assistant Rocio Zamundio to discuss turning the educational experience around.
Watch our first president and two members of his cabinet discuss and debate the ways and means of financing the government of our fledgling nation.
Historian Ellen Fitzpatrick discusses her new book, The Highest Glass Ceiling: Women’s Quest for the American Presidency, about the campaigns of Victoria Woodhull (1872), Margaret Chase Smith (1964), and Shirley Chisholm (1972), and how their journeys illuminate today’s political landscape. WGBH radio host and television commentator Callie Crossley moderates.
Shawn Harris read from his book “Her Right Foot,” a story about the history and meaning of the Statue of Liberty. Afterwards, he lead students in a hands-on cut paper activity and shared his methods on creating collage art. Students also learned about the Library’s Statue of Liberty collections.
