It's not just your imagination. Turbulence on airplane flights is getting worse, including severe turbulence that could cause injuries. The reason is the climate crisis -- here's how.<b<br/>r/>

How can the lessons of the past help us navigate the turbulence of the present and future? Social philosopher Roman Krznaric explores why history isn’t just a record of what’s gone wrong — it’s also full of solutions, resilience and...

Jessi and Squeaks are taking a trip soon! But Squeaks has never been on a plane before, and he's a little nervous about it. Let's learn what it's like to go through the airport and to be on an airplane, so we can help squeaks feel a...

A look at what turbulence is (in fluid flow), and a result by Kolmogorov regarding the energy cascade of turbulence.

SciShow Space describes a new phenomenon that might be out there: Stars made entirely out of metal. But it's not quite what it sounds like!

A look at what turbulence is (in fluid flow), and a result by Kolmogorov regarding the energy cascade of turbulence.

The telescopes of tomorrow will see in infrared and ultraviolet. They will peer through space and scan across time. They will allow us to find new supernovae, spot potentially hazardous asteroids, better understand dark energy and peer...

You're on an airplane when you feel a sudden jolt. Outside your window nothing seems to be happening, yet the plane continues to rattle you and your fellow passengers as it passes through turbulent air in the atmosphere. What exactly is...

Physicist Werner Heisenberg said, "When I meet God, I am going to ask him two questions: why relativity? And why turbulence? I really believe he will have an answer for the first." As difficult as turbulence is to understand...

Ever wonder why sometimes the airplane you're flying on decides to lurch suddenly and cause your little baggie of peanuts to spill all over the place? Join Hank on SciShow today as he explores the in and outs and the ups and downs of...

Parachutes are a big part of keeping our astronauts safe, but despite being around for almost 500 years, there are still a lot of things we need to work on before they can be full proof.

Hopefully this course has gotten you excited about all the things we can do with engineering. If so, today we’re going to try to help you answer a very important question: how do you become an engineer? What are the steps? What kinds of...

Let's talk about the turbulence, explaining what it is and why it can be dangerous for airplanes. It can discuss how airlines use various techniques to keep passengers safe during turbulence, including adjusting the altitude and speed of...

Although in its worst form, turbulence may scare passengers to the point where they start praying, it’s very, very rare for turbulence to be powerful enough to actually bring a plane down. Based on severity, airplane turbulence is often...

Commercial airplanes typically fly between 32,000 feet and 38,000 feet, with the sweet spot being approximately 35,000 feet. One of the main reasons commercial airplanes fly so high is air resistance. You see, the higher you go above the...

The cutting edge bike and clothing designs that make cyclists more aerodynamic and can make the difference between winning and losing. Physics - Forces - Learning Points. A professional cyclist's main aim is to reduce air resistance. New...

In this lesson, we will begin to bring our foliage to life. We will add a wind system with a turbulence force to get motion in our scene.

Nobel Laureate David Politzer (Caltech) describes how physicists use perturbation theory to describe what happens at the interface of two different surfaces.

In the fallout of one of the most volatile American elections ever financial markets did something very strange, they rose, and rose to new record levels, again. This would be unusual during even a normal election, where most investors...

How can more powerful super computers help with the research of cloud activity and weather forecasting? How to identify the different types of weather clouds and the clouds that might have precipitation or rain?

Mysterious Weather...

What does ACTOS focus on that scientists and researchers are unable to simulate in the laboratory? How do weather cloud simulations help researchers understand the behavior of rain in a weather cloud?<br/>
Mysterious Weather Clouds, Part 3

Clouds manifest moisture condensed in the air. In this program they are appreciated and pondered. Clouds give clues to wind direction, humidity levels, weather patterns, and they just make pretty sights. We look at the basic type of...
