- The Journey to Palomar | PBS
It has been said that George Ellery Hale did for the entire universe what Christopher Columbus did only for the Earth. Most people have never heard of Hale, but his life and work had a profound effect on the development of 20th century science in America, most notably--astronomy.\n\nThe Journey to Palomar traces the epic personal and professional quest of the Chicago-born astronomer to build the four largest telescopes of the 20th century, culminating with the 20-year effort to build the million-pound telescope on Palomar Mountain, a project considered the "moon shot" of the 1930s and 1940s.

- Travels in the Great Tree of Life - Peabody Museum at Yale
10' video "Discovering the Great Tree of Life." Biodiversity and relationships from one organism to another. Mention high technologies. Tells that Darwin was first to compare Earth's life to a tree - now called a phylogeny. GREAT animation of physical separation, mutation, and explains branching of the tree. Talk of characteristics of species in terms of morphology and DNA technologies. Discuss phylogeny in terms of experimental approach--number of solutions in building the tree for 50 species is more than the number of atoms in the universe. Development of new theory, massive amounts of data, and huge advances in computing allow us to study. Example of Reflesia, the corpse flower, which are the biggest flowers in the world. Their closest relatives are m...

- When and how did the elements of life in the Universe arise? - NASA Science
Following the Big Bang and the gradual cooling of the Universe, the primary constituents of the cosmos were the elements hydrogen and helium. Even today, these two elements make up 98% of the visible matter in the Universe. Nevertheless, our world and everything it contains—even life itself—is possible only because of the existence of heavier elements such as carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, silicon, iron, and many, many others. How long did it take the first generations of stars to seed our Universe with the heavy elements we see on Earth today? When in the history of the Universe was there a sufficient supply of heavy elements to allow the formation of prebiotic molecules and terrestrial-like planets
