Wildfire Simulator

This computer model has two purposes: 1) to let you see how certain conditions such as wind speed and direction, affect the spread of a wild land fire; and 2) to show you how to use a fireline - alone or in a conjunction with a backfire - to control a wildland fire. Try it out and see if you can stop the fire from reaching a house! This site has been brought to you by NOVA and PBSKids.

Mechanical Madness

A kinetic sculpture needs your help to make these machines work. Your task: put the missing parts into the correct positions to move the ball from the start to the finish line and move on to the next level. Play tons of different games, and check out the message board. This site has been brought to you by Twin Cities Public Television, PBS Kids.

Space Station

Important parts on the space station are failing! You need to fix the parts before the station is doomed forever. Your space suit is outfitted with oxygen and a fueled jetpack for the spacewalk mission. Move yourself around using the jetpack according to Newton's Third Law of Motion. ("For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.") But be careful! If you move too quickly between the repairs, you'll run out of fuel. And if you spend to long in space, you'll run out of oxygen. Balance your oxygen and fuel use carefully to complete the mission.

Planetary Rescue Challenge

Your goal is to provide needed parts to space colonists at the furthest reaches of the Solar System. But first you need to practice your skills launching rescue packages on earth. Then you'll be ready to attempt planetary missions. Play lots of different games, and check out the message board. This site has been brought to you by Twin Cities Public Television, PBS Kids.

Nanobots

Your mission is to guide the nanorobot to the end of the obstacle course safely. Forces behave very differently at the nanoscale, so you'll have to conserve your energy and pay close attention to the positive and negative charges. Use your charge flippers to take advantage of these charges as they pull and push your nanorobot. Watch out for obstacles and the water drops, and use the items in your inventory wisely! Once you've mastered the navigation, you can try your hand at building a course of your own for others to attempt. Good luck!
