This film explores how life recovered after an asteroid wiped out the dinosaurs and how those events shaped the diversity of plants and mammals on Earth today.

This video describes how scientists silence different genes in regenerating planaria to study the process of regeneration at the molecular level.

This animated short video celebrates the early 20th-century German astronomer and atmospheric scientist Alfred Wegener, who first proposed that continents once formed a single landmass and had drifted apart.

This video describes how prehistoric extinction rates are calculated from fossil data in a paleodatabase and compared to modern extinction rates.

This video provides an overview of the types of genes that, when mutated, can lead to the development of cancer.

This film tells the story of the scientific quest to explain one of the greatest, long-standing scientific mysteries: the sudden disappearance of the dinosaurs at the end of the Cretaceous period.

This animation provides an overview of some basic concepts from plate tectonics, a fundamental theory in earth science.

This video provides a demonstration of the principle of isostasy, the idea that the continental crust “floats” on the underlying mantle.

This animation explores how carbon enters the atmosphere and can be removed through a series of chemical reactions.

This film explores how gene duplications and mutations have led to remarkable physiological adaptations in Antarctic fish.

This video provides a demonstration of two main principles in the study of rock layers: superposition and association.

This animation shows how a mutation that allows adult humans to digest milk can be lost or spread under different circumstances.
