New from the University of Nottingham's always entertaining series "Sixty Symbols."  Insights on CERN and the LHC.  He provides some lesser known, fascinating information.
"High above the LHC - Sixty Symbols"
"Before going inside, here is a visual and conversational "overview" of the Large Hadron Collider with Professor Ed Copeland."

A brand new Science Off the Sphere!  I've been anticipating more from this awesome series by astronaut Don Pettit, aboard the International Space Station.
"Episode 4: Vortices and Lenses"
"NASA Astronaut Don Pettit takes advantage of the weightless environment aboard the ISS to do diffusion and lens experiments with pure water."

Space.com just shared with us a NASA Planetary Science video on Jupiter's strange atmosphere.
"New Video of Jupiter Reveals Invisible Jet Stream Wave"
"The videos show a line of small, dark, V-shaped features called "chevrons" along one edge of the jet stream. At the start, these chevrons are traveling west to east with the wind, but later, they are seen to ripple and move north and south."
