Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. Produced primarily for the 13-16 target audience, Xploration Nature knows best will inspire and educate audiences of all ages. Host and marine biologist Danni Washington exudes energy as she relates how technology all around us was inspired by nature and how modern innovators are continuing with this practice. We will whirl around in airplanes inspired by birds and in helicopters influenced by the dragonfly, and even jump from a few such vehicles to illustrate how wingsuits were invented based on the flying squirrel. But engineers aren't the only scientists looking toward nature. We will also meet with biologists studying the behavior patterns of ants, architects who design living buildings and roboticists who are making their designs bigger, stronger and faster based on animals. This series will help kids to understand how getting outside and taking a look around can help them make the next great discovery. Xploration Nature Knows Best is a half hour weekly EI series produced with the intention of increasing and expanding our target audience interest in the field of STEM education.

Host, science educator, and leader in the field of professional educational training, Steve Spangler, encourages the discovery of scientific concepts through experiments viewers can do at home. With a fun, relaxed attitude, Steve will take viewers step by step demonstrations of do it yourself experiments that amaze, but which also relate back to solid principles of science. For instance, Steve Spangler became nationally known with a video showing him dropping the candy "Mentos" into a bottle of diet soda. It erupts in a geyser of soda. On Xploration DIY Sci, Spangler demonstrates the experiment and also explains the science of why, on a molecular level, the soda reacts that way to the candy. Xploration Station DIY Sci is a half hour weekly EI series produced with the intention of increasing and expanding our target audience interest in the field of STEM education. This series will help kids understand how they can discover the principles of science with items they can find in their very own home.
