Oceans and Weather
Water covers over 71% of the earth’s surface and plays a very important role in our weather patterns and the climate. This lesson explains how it works.
Winter Weather/Blizzards
When the sun’s rays are focused on the southern hemisphere, the powerful winds of winter create all sorts of hazards. We’ll take a close look at the perils of winter weather.

Experiment #1
This experiment investigates the power of the expansion of air and how it relates to the atmosphere!
Experiment #2
This experiment demonstrates how high and low pressure affect the weather patterns and cloud formation!
Experiment #3
This experiment accelerates the effects of the sun and how it creates the energy necessary to form storms!
Experiment #4
78% of what we breath is nitrogen. But when you cool it off to -320°, things get very interesting!
Experiment At Home #1
This simple experiment demonstrates how the differences in temperature cause air to expand and contract in real time!
Experiment At Home #2
This experiment explores the water cycle by creating a cloud in a bottle. Watch closely as the vapor rises off the hot water and creates a cloud!
Experiment At Home #3
Water and air are both types of fluids, so you can study the movement in water to understand the movements of air. This experiment helps you visualize the interactions between cold, dense water, and the warmer water than surrounds it.
Experiment At Home #4
At sea level, air weighs 14.696 pounds per square inch…which means there is over 2,116 pounds or weight on every square foot of our planet. The weight of the air is called air pressure, and this experiment shows you that what happens when the pressure drops in one area affects other areas as well!
