The New Horizons spacecraft has given us lots of clues about the early days of our solar system, but we don't always have to travel billions of kilometers to peer into our past.

Jessi and Squeaks love science mysteries, and today they've teamed up with their friend, Dino, to try and solve one of the biggest mysteries of all: what happened to the dinosaurs?

Seventeenth-century Danish geologist Nicolas Steno earned his chops at a young age, studying cadavers and drawing anatomic connections between species. Steno made outsized contributions to the field of geology, influencing Charles Lyell,...

Scientists conduct some pretty cool research experiments for Mars here on Earth. These terrestrial analogues have revealed some incredible discoveries!

Thanks to some amazing scientific insights, we know a lot about the interior of our planet - even though we’ve never even made it through the crust.

With two new missions set by NASA, we hope to learn so much more of the asteroids surrounding Jupiter's orbit and the origin of our moon!

Weathering breaks down rocks and creates sediments which become the raw materials for other rocks and the formation of our soils. And we call the process of moving that sediment erosion. In today's episode, we're just going to focus on...

We've found the first confirmed superconductors in meteorites, and our simulated atmosphere game is really heating up!

Imagine being by yourself in the dead center of a 3,000-foot vertical cliff -- without a rope to catch you if you fall. For professional rock climber Alex Honnold, this dizzying scene marked the culmination of a decade-long dream. In a...

For the last hundred and fifty years or so, geologists have been trying to wrap their heads around the mystery: in some places, the geologic record just seems to jump by over billion years. And last week, a paper was published that may...

We’re beginning our engineering journey with a tour through the major branches. Today Shini explains the facets of civil engineering, including structural and construction engineering, city planning, transportation, and sanitation.

You may have seen rock sculptures seemingly defying physics in your newsfeed, but what's actually happening?

People ask Google everything under the sun. One of the most commonly searched questions in the world is “How old is Earth?” SciShow has the answer!

Giant disks around baby stars filled with gas and dust provide the material to make all sorts of planets, and new evidence proves that our solar system’s had a massive gap in it! And the water vapor in Jupiter’s moon, Europa, might not...

There are still lots of unsolved mystery about carbonados ("black diamonds"), and geologists even think those mystery rocks come from outside of Earth.

In this collection of classic MinuteEarth videos, we travel beyond Earth and explore some of our favorite mysteries about space.

There's still a lot we don't know about the moon!

How do we know how old the Earth is? Learn how we date rocks, the moon, and planets.

Getting our hands on a few moon rocks radically changed our understanding of the solar system!

The event that killed the dinosaurs 66 million years ago might be the most famous mass extinction ever, but it's not the only one in Earth’s history, nor is it the worst... not by a long shot.

Everybody loves dinosaurs, and we wouldn't know nearly as much as we do if it weren't for a person named Mary Anning.

Mountains take can take billions of years to form, but the Adirondack Mountains got ahead by recycling itself.

You may think of single-celled organisms as being microscopically small, but these ocean dwellers are a little heftier than that.

The ground beneath your feet is home to a massive, mysterious world of microbes -- some of which have been in the earth's crust for hundreds of thousands of years. What's it like down there? Take a trip to the volcanoes and hot springs...
