When I'm not working, I love learning all about science, from the microscopic to the epically large. I created this channel as a place where people can come to learn about science, share new ideas, and expand their knowledge of the world around them. We explore everything from the foundations of earth science and biology to the vast mysteries of the universe and everything in between. And as I learn new things, I look forward to sharing them here in a fun and engaging way that hopefully helps you learn something new and inspires you to pass it on.

Explanation of convection currents

How do plate tectonics REALLY work?

Useful video to help study plate boundaries using rap!

Explains plate tectonics

Every student of Geography should see this at least once.

This video explains tectonic movements and shows a nice animation of continental movement over time.

Nice BBC animation showing magma convection currents and subduction zones.
