    Why are scientists catapulting mushrooms into orbit? - Shannon Odell

    Explore the unique characteristics that make fungi so resilient, and find out why they may be the key to future space travel.--Astronauts aboard the space station Mir made a frightening discovery: several species of Earth-derived fungi were found growing throughout the shuttle, blanketing air conditioners and corroding control panels, putting both the station’s integrity and their lives at risk. How had the fungi survived the journey to space? Shannon Odell shares why fungi may be the key to our future on other planets.Lesson by Shannon Odell, directed by Denys Spolitak.Support Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/why-are-scientists-shooting-mushrooms-into-space-shannon-odellDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/why-are-scientists-shooting-mushrooms-into-space-shannon-odell/digdeeperAnimator's website: https://vimeo.com/user50965180Music: http://www.wonderboyaudio.com----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!

    Why is Alzheimer's disease so hard to cure? - Krishna Sudhir

    Dig into how Alzheimer’s disease affects your brain and cognitive abilities, and what makes the disorder so hard to treat.--Around the world, millions of people have Alzheimer’s disease, a debilitating brain disorder that gradually destroys a person’s memory and other cognitive abilities. While doctors have studied Alzheimer’s for decades, conducting hundreds of clinical trials, there is still no effective preventive treatment or cure. So, why is Alzheimer’s disease so difficult to treat?

    This thought experiment will help you understand quantum mechanics - Matteo Fadel

    Can you win a game of quantum foosball— using a giant electron instead of a ball? Explore how to use quantum mechanics to your advantage. --After a long day working on the particle accelerator, you and your friends head to the arcade to unwind. The lights go out for a second, and when they come back, there before you gleams a foosball table. Always game, you insert your coins. And quantum foosball begins— instead of a ball, you’ll be playing with a giant electron. Matteo Fadel shows how to use quantum mechanics to your advantage.Lesson by Matteo Fadel, directed by Artrake Studio.Support Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/can-you-win-a-game-of-quantum-foosball-matteo-fadelDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/can-you-win-a-game-of-quantum-foosball-matteo-fadel#digdeeperAnimator's website: https://www.artrake.com/----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!

    Why does whacking your funny bone feel so dreadful? - Cella Wright

    Explore the complex anatomy of the elbow, and find out why hitting your funny bone causes such an odd and painful sensation.--It's something we've all experienced: the back of your elbow smacks against a hard surface and the impact sends a sensation so distinctly disquieting shooting down your arm that it takes several moments to regain composure. So, why does hitting this spot on your elbow— commonly known as the funny bone— feel so weird? Cella Wright explains one of the most complicated joints in the body.Lesson by Cella Wright, directed by Anton Bogaty.Support Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/why-does-hitting-your-funny-bone-feel-so-horrible-cella-wrightDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/why-does-hitting-your-funny-bone-feel-so-horrible-cella-wright/digdeeperAnimator's website: https://antonbogaty.comMusic: https://www.campstudio.co----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!
