The Human Face of Big Data | Under the Data Microscope | PBS LearningMediaIn the past, when we thought of things, those ideas became knowledge when we wrote them down. The current "big data" field couldn't be more different. There, data isn’t quite knowledge until researchers analyze it and shift it into interesting pieces of information - much like a microscope. However, researchers don't collect exo-bits and peda-bites of data. Instead, they look through that microscope to find what they could never see before using incredibly powerful algorithms.

Scientist or Guinea Pig: Science in Space | STEM in 30 | PBS LearningMediaDo you like being poked, prodded, and analyzed? If you said yes, then you may have a future as an astronaut. Astronauts don’t just conduct scientific experiments, they are part of an experiment themselves. Learning about the human factors of spaceflight is an important element to a future trip to Mars. Join STEM in 30 as we explore the effects of space on the humans who travel there. In this episode of STEM in 30, we will be joined by NASA astronaut Anna Fisher. Fisher has a Doctor of Medicine from UCLA and worked in several hospitals in the Los Angeles area prior to her selection as an astronaut. She will discuss her experience in the first class of astronauts to include women and her work with the robotic arm as well as her background in medicine and how NASA keeps up with the health of the astronaut corps.
