Water in Yosemite is more dangerous than it looks, and stories like Matthew's are a common occurrence.

A fossil is a trace of a living thing left in rock. Fossils offer a three-part challenge - first to reconstruct the organism itself, then to reconstruct the world it lived in, then to understand its place in time and evolution.

In this video you are going to learn how we used earthquakes to look deep into the earth. The study of S and P waves helped us understand that the Earth has a layered structure, with a solid inner core surrounded by an outer liquid core.

I love my new Lego Research Institute Kit! Making all three scientist sets for camera didn't seem to do the characters justice, so I hope you enjoy the additional story of Paleaontologist, Mary Anning!

Earth Science for Kids is the fun way to learn important facts about earth science and prepare for tests. Take a fascinating journey to the Super Science Station to learn about renewable energy.

In this video, Philippe Cousteau joins students from Petersburg Elementary to learn how to collect and identify benthic macro-invertebrates in a stream. They use a kick net to collect the organisms and a dichotomous key to identify them....

Mr. Beat tells you everything you need to know about the Kent State shootings, a terrible and shocking tragedy that was symbolic of how hostile and chaotic things got at the height of the Vietnam War.

This video explains the natural processes of weathering, erosion, and deposition and how they have shaped the Earth's landscape over billions of years. It discusses how rocks are broken down into smaller pieces by agents such as rain,...
