From Cleo Abram. Why are these 5,000 basketball-sized spheres deep under the ice in Antarctica? It’s an observatory all the way down at the bottom of the world. It spans over a cubic kilometer in size and involves drilling 2500m below the surface. It was a massive undertaking requiring tons of resources… so how did…

From Cleo Abram. I never realized just how small a transistor really is – the electronic switches in everything you use! Let me show you just how small we’re talking… and they’re trying to go even smaller… To learn how, subscribe! #science #size #transistor #small #zoom #tech

From Cleo Abram. These are all the planets outside our solar system we’ve ever found! But what is this big line of planets? Back in 2009, most of the very few “exoplanets” we’d found were big gassy ones like Jupiter. But were there more like Earth? NASA launched a telescope to find out… For optimistic…

From Cleo Abram. These are some of the smoothest, most reflective mirrors in the world! They’re polished to have bumps just a few atoms thick! They reflect 99.9999% of the light that hits them, but they’re not FOR visible light! They’re made to reflect light from an infrared laser that’s part of the most precise…

From Cleo Abram. Scientists just found a new way to treat a cancer we thought was incurable! You have important immune cells in your blood that fight infections, called T-cells, but in this rare disease, the T-cells turn cancerous. So researchers took healthy T-cells from a donor and used a NEW technique to not only…

From Cleo Abram. These are sound waves putting out a fire and they’re being used to protect homes! Fire needs 3 ingredients: Fuel, heat, and oxygen. Sound waves disrupt fire by pushing and pulling the oxygen molecules away from the fuel. This team is working on scaling up the tech for homes and making a…

From Cleo Abram. What is the fastest Winter Olympic sport? #sponsored @NBCSports @YouTube #winterolympics Clocking in at up to 55km per hour are Olympic speed skaters. That’s about as fast as a TIGER can run, all while balancing on a skate only a millimeter thick! Next are ski jumpers, but they’re not as fast as…

From Cleo Abram. There’s a microchip in every NFL football! It tracks the speed and 2D location of the ball, but refs don’t usually use it! The data is mostly used for stats, like you see on TV! But the NFL is using new tech around the stadium to make calls more accurate – they…

From Cleo Abram. This is your new favorite Winter Olympic Sport! #sponsored @NBCSports @YouTube #winterolympics Every 4 years the internet collectively loses its mind over one Olympic Sport: Curling. People make fun of it! There are endless jokes about cleaning and even comments questioning if it’s even a sport… I get it. Between the screaming…

From Cleo Abram. Curling is the craziest Olympic sport by far. Trust me. This episode is #sponsored by @NBCSports @YouTube #WinterOlympics Every four years, people lose their minds over one Olympic sport. They make fun of it! But the more I learned about it, the more obsessed I got… and I realized that all these…

From Cleo Abram. NASA is sending humans farther from Earth than ever before. This is the second of three planned NASA missions to go back to the moon, in hopes of eventually establishing a moon colony. This mission, Artemis II, is about testing the spacecraft, Orion, during a 10 day trip around earth and the…

From Cleo Abram. There’s a giant science experiment deep under a mountain in Japan. It was built in 1996 and led to not one but two Nobel Prize-winning discoveries. This observatory looks nothing like anything you’ve ever seen and it could completely change how we understand the universe. For more optimistic science and tech stories,…

From Cleo Abram. We can find planets far outside our solar system and search for signs of life without ever leaving Earth. The way we do it is absolutely insane! You might think we would need to fly there or send a spacecraft to take a sample – nope! We found water vapor on a…

From Cleo Abram. When two enormous stars in space collide, something wild happens here on Earth… At first, we don’t feel it! But Einstein predicted that massive things warp space and time around them. That’s what we call gravity. So when these stars collide, they create an explosion of light and ripples in space and…

From Cleo Abram. This chart shows how efficiently all animals travel, including you! The closer to the top, the more energy the animal uses, and the farther to the right, the bigger it is. And it turns out you, a human, are pretty darn efficient. To find out what’s more efficient than a human, subscribe!…

From Cleo Abram. This new material can camouflage itself like an octopus, changing its color and texture! Scientists get to choose what it looks like but it won’t automatically match any background…yet. They hope this tunable material could be used for new wearable devices or robots.

From Cleo Abram. They’re doing brain surgery on Monarch butterflies to solve a big mystery. Every year, monarch butterflies migrate thousands of kilometers from the U.S. and Canada to Mexico. How do they know where to go?? We already know they use the sun’s position to help them determine direction. But what if it’s rainy…or…

From Cleo Abram. In the middle of the desert are huge, 4km long concrete tubes that are part of a giant machine running the most precise experiment humans have ever built. Inside the tubes is a pipe with fewer particles in it than the International Space Station flies through and at the end are some…

From Cleo Abram. The Drake passage is known to be one of the most dangerous crossings in the world… Pressure changes, unimpeded winds, and ocean currents make for exceptionally chaotic seas, but the deadly conditions here and everything that creates them also plays a vital role in protecting our planet.

From Cleo Abram. This is the largest piece of Mars we’ve ever found on earth! It contains a rare glass created only under the intense shock wave pressures from an asteroid impact. We think this piece was ejected off Mars by an asteroid and sent hurtling towards Earth… But how do we know it’s from…

From Cleo Abram. We actually don’t know why ice is slippery. Seriously! We know that there’s a tiny liquid layer that acts as lubricant on the surface of ice and that lets us slide across it, but scientists have been debating where that layer comes from for two centuries. Now, there’s a new theory… For…

From Cleo Abram. If aliens looked at Earth from far away, would they know we’re here? Imagine little aliens speeding toward us – but their tech is the same level as ours.

And it’s changing how we understand the conditions for life on earth and beyond… HUGE if true! For more optimistic science and tech stories, subscribe. To read more: DOI:…

From Cleo Abram. This tiny device can navigate using quantum physics rather than GPS! Normally, a pilot needs four satellites to figure out its location… But this device uses atoms that act like compass needles sensitive to earth’s magnetic field, which is different everywhere! So it can record the magnetic “fingerprint” anywhere, no satellites needed!…

From Cleo Abram. At the bottom of the earth there’s a massive machine that’s unlike anything you’ve ever seen. That’s because it’s mostly buried under the ice and it’s not looking at the stars… It’s hunting ghosts! Specifically, “ghost particles” known as neutrinos. These mysterious particles come from somewhere in space and are smaller than…
