Experience kitchen chemistry and the wonders of food science. Host Susan Turgeson (2009 AAFCS Nat'l Teacher of the Year) and students demonstrate six fun and easy food science experiments that can be conducted in any kitchen, while explaining the science behind them. Chaptered into segments, experimemts include: Emulsions, Fermentation, Scientific Method, Hand Washing and Food Safety, Biochemistry of Milk & Sensory Evaluation. Also includes an interview...

In the first program, Bill Nye demonstrates how to tell pseudoscience from science; in the second program, he presents a variety of experiments the viewer can perform at home on a variety of topics.

Bill Nye shows all kinds of unexpected places where magnets can be found. In fact, the Earth itself is a huge magnet! Find out how to make a compass and why opposites attract.

"Bill Nye checks out this important muscular pump and its function in the body by pulling nine 'Gs' with the United States Navy's Blue Angels and chatting with Seattle Mariner Edgar Martinez"--Container.

Here the Imagineers showcase how different types of friction - static, kinetic, and rolling - come into play when they're designing Disney's theme park rides and attractions. From rollercoaster wheels for Big Thunder Mountain Railroad to the shape of a Disney Cruise Line ship's hull, the Imagineers can use tribology (the study of friction) to find ways to reduce drag.

"Bill Nye shows how everything needs a push or pull--a force--to make it move or stop. Sometimes an object might seem to be at rest even when it is actually in motion. Confused? It's all relative--relative motion, that is"--Container.

Have a blast watching the explosive examples Bill Nye uses to explain that everything is made of chemicals. Guest star Candace Cameron shares the lab with Bill and shows that fire is actually a chemical reaction.

Learn what happens when huge masses of air collide and how storms--even though they can be severe at times--benefit us and the planet we live on.

Bill Nye explains how atoms combine to form molecules in this fascinating program.

Explores the way in which soil composition and water interact. Experiments using everyday objects are used to illustrate scientific concepts.
