NASA Connect - Who Added the Micro To Gravity

NASA Connect Video containing six segments as described below. NASA Connect segment involving students in a web activity to understand apparent weight. The activity also involves an elevator design project. NASA Connect segment exploring microgravity and how the concepts of measurement, ratios, and graphing help scientists study all aspects of microgravity. NASA Connect segment explaining microgravity and how the concepts of measurement and graphing help understand microgravity. NASA Connect segment explaining how fires in space act differently than on earth. The segment also explores flamelets and the idea of slope on a position versus time graph. NASA Connect segment exploring how NASA is working with students to develop new applications for microgravity research. The segment explains buoyancy-induced convection and the relationship between density and volume.
