NOVA ScienceNOW

nova-sciencenowThere just aren’t very many shows on TV that are as cool or as worthwhile as NOVA ScienceNOW on PBS. Here in Colorado it airs on Tuesday nights, but if you live somewhere else, check your local listings or visit their website.

Come to think of it, everyone should visit their website anyway. Why? Because there is so much fun, interactive stuff for kids and adults alike — games, links, science news, and even an Ask the Expert feature that allows you to communicate with some of the smartest people around about all kinds of topics.

Best of all, you can watch video of any episode you want. Here are a few of my favorites:

Hunt for Alien Earths

Karl Iagnemma: Robot Scientist and Writer(!)

Growth Spurt for a T-Rex

Art and Algorithms
