Fluids and Motion in Space
These short video clips, from Our Space, show Richard Garriott during his mission to the International Space Station, illustrating how everyday materials and activities are very different in space. Each video illustrates one of the following different phenomena...
Spaceflight History: Rockets and Shuttle
Produced by FootageVault and using original video from NASA, these clips show some of the major milestones in the development of spaceflight. The Apollo missions used the Saturn V launcher and it's lift off is shown. NASA's most recent launch vehicle is the Space Shuttle. This launcher returns to Earth...
Earth Observation from Space
This short video clip from Our Space shows Richard Garriott during his mission to the International Space Station, and what the Earth looks like when viewed from space. He takes a photograph of the stunning Palm Island development in Dubai, an example of the sort of...
Conservation of Momentum
These short video clips, from Our Space, show Richard Garriott during his mission to the International Space Station, illustrating the conservation of momentum. Using the unique conditions found in micro-gravity, Richard demonstrates conservation of linear momentum using collisions between two tennis balls. The...
Astronauts on 'Space Walk' from the International Space Station
This vertiginous video clip , from Footagevault, shows an astronaut emerging from the Quest airlock on board the International Space Station. Further views recorded from a small camera mounted on the astronaut's helmet show the astronaut-eye view of his spacewalk, looking around the outside of the Space Station...
Playing with Toys in Space *suitable for home teaching*
Looking for a clip to illustrate momentum? Footagevault has provided this footage of astronaut Jeff Hoffman playing with a red toy car on a looped race track on board the Space Shuttle. The car's momentum and centripetal force keep it on the race track initially, before friction slows it down.
Spaceflight History: First Spacewalk
Produced by FootageVault, this original NASA video shows America's first spacewalk, made by astronaut Ed White, from his Gemini IV spacecraft on the 3rd of June 1965. The spacewalk lasted 23 minutes, during which time the astronaut manoeuvred using a hand-held oxygen-jet gun to push himself.
Forces and Motion in Space
Produced by Our Space during his visit to the International Space Station, these short video clips entertainingly illustrate aspects of movement in space. They allow students to see how objects move when apparently weightless. In these videos, Richard...
Eating, Sleeping, Drinking and Living in Space
Richard Garriott visited the International Space Station (ISS). These short video clips from Our Space look at some common aspects of life onboard the ISS and how living in space poses its own particular challenges. The video clips illustrate:
...Monitoring Health on the International Space Station
From Our Space, these two short video clips describe how aspects of Richard Garriottt's health were monitored during his visit to the International Space Station. The first video clip describes experiments into how back pain, motion sickness and bone structure can...
