The host of a science show (Felicia Day) bids the viewers goodbye. Includes closing credits of the complete Astrophysics Variety Hour.
Rachel Bloom performs an original song about discovering planets around distant stars, what astronomers call "exoplanets." In the process, she educates a skeptical drone about how humans can find these distant planets without actually seeing a
The host of a science show (Felicia Day) recaps some of the key science explained in the Astrophysics Variety Hour, including what exoplanets are and how astronomers can discover them.
A charming astronomer explains to a party full of drones how it's occasionally possible--but difficult--to photograph a planet around another star, and how it might become more common in the future.
The ghost of Sir Isaac Newton is haunting his great great great grand-niece, Dr. Ivonne! In this sitcom spoof, Newton is trying to catch up on all the science he missed over the past several hundred years, and is particularly curious about the
A charming astronomer explains to a party full of drones the naming convention behind some of the complex-looking names given to recently discovered exoplanets.
The host of a science show (Felicia Day) explains how astronomers can discover and map planetary systems around distant stars--including determining the number of planets, their positions, and their orbit speeds—without actually seeing any of
In an animated short set in the future, bees discover technology left behind by space-going humans, and use it to build their own tiny spaceships to explore the galaxy! While being pursued by scheming spiders, the bees learn how Hollywood gets
Being a “scientist” is less about what degree someone has, and more about the methods that they use to make their discoveries! Multiple scientist clones walk through the process in this retro-styled clip.
The host of a science show (Felicia Day) explains to a floating Drone-bot the details of how the Earth and everything on it, including people, came from leftover cosmic material after the Sun was formed.
Two news anchors discuss a distant planet named WASP-69b, which evidence suggests is having its atmosphere blasted off into space by its host star.
Want to visit a distant planet outside of our Solar System? Well...you actually can't! They're too far away. But here's the next best thing: a fictional advertisement describing some of the wildest and strangest planets astronomers have detect
A trio of hapless contestants attempt to compete on an astronomy quiz show, and learn what people—along with planets, the Sun, and all other stars—are made of.
The host of a science show (Felicia Day) explains some of the science behind exoplanets to a floating Drone-bot and a holographic viewer. Explanations include how star systems formed, what the Earth was made from, and the variety of exoplanets
This visualization showcases the 3D structure of a remarkable nebula created around a massive star known as Eta Carinae.
The unannotated version of this visualization showcases the multiwavelength emissions and three-dimensional structures surrounding Eta Carinae, one of the most massive and eruptive stars in our galaxy.
This six-minute visual exploration of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field showcases its four-dimensional nature across both space and time.
This visualization explores the Orion Nebula as seen in infrared-light observations from the Spitzer Space Telescope.
This visualization explores the Orion Nebula as seen in visible-light observations from the Hubble Space Telescope.
This visualization explores the Orion Nebula using both visible and infrared light as we fly through its structures.
This 3D visualization features the Crab Nebula, the glowing remains of a supernova explosion witnessed by Chinese astronomers nearly 1,000 years ago.
Part 4 of a discussion between astronomers about the video Habitable Zone: Goldilocks Paradox. What is the likelihood we may discover an exoplanet that could sustain human life? And are scientists searching for non-human life on other worlds?
Part 3 of a discussion between astronomers about the video Habitable Zone: Goldilocks Paradox. How do we learn so much about what exoplanet are like? Can astronomers today actually detect water on these distant worlds? Find out more about the
Part 2 of a discussion between astronomers about the video Habitable Zone: Goldilocks Paradox. How is real scientific data used to help visualize exoplanets? What decisions do visual artists have to make when depicting an exoplanet? How do exo
Part 1 of a discussion between astronomers about the video Habitable Zone: Goldilocks Paradox. How can an exoplanet be at the right temperature but still not have liquid water? If we want to find an exoplanet that could host life like us, why
