In this set of three activities students will design and build their own paper rockets and launch them. They will learn what it takes in order for a rocket to be stable and they will calculate the rocket’s trajectory and velocity. They will learn about the velocity required to leave Earth in a rocket and uncover...

This video introduces 4 interesting physics problems about rotational motion. Students are asked to explain each problem.

1. A mystery object rolling down an inclined plank.  The cylinder moves in a stop-start motion.

The container is filled with honey and 2 ping pong balls. The changing centre of...

The first video presents five physics phenomena:

1. Centre of mass

This collection of fourteen 60 second animated clips were produced by the Open University, and funded by the Science Technology Facilities Council. They focus on cutting edge topics within astrophysics in a humorous and easily accessible way. The animations cover topics such as the Big Bang, the expansion of the...

These series of animations explain what microgravity is and how it is used in research both on the ground and in space.  They are designed by researchers from the Open University and narrated by the actor/comedian David Mitchell.

This short film explains how the 60 second adventures in microgravity series was put together. It features some of the researchers, animators and script writers involved.
