Video of the Week

Did you know that one of Jupiter's moons, Io, is filled with active volcanoes? In this video, celebrity physicist Brian Cox attempts to explain the origin of this strange phenomenon in a highly accessible manner.

This video is an excerpt from the popular BBC series Wonders of the Solar System, where Cox explores the similarities and differences between terrestrial and extra-terrestrial phenomena, thereby elevating the beauty and unity of Physics to a whole new level.

The Video of the Week is a newly introduced feature. Each week, we will highlight a new physics-related video. The selected videos will cover a wide variety of issues, ranging from academic to pedagogical or even introspective in nature. Through these videos, we hope to inspire students, broaden the horizons of their physics knowledge and stimulate thinking and reflection. Stay tuned for more exciting videos in the coming weeks!
