Travel to some of the most extreme environments on Earth and see how insects are able to employ their skills to survive. -- Insects are the world’s most numerous and diverse animals.

So, how do they do it? Charles Wallace illuminates the incredible survival skills of insects living in some of Earth's harshest ecosystems. Lesson by Charles Wallace, directed by Raghav Arumugam, Jagriti Khirwar.

Can you solve the computer virus riddle? - James Tanton

Practice more problem-solving at https://brilliant.org/TedEd [https://brilliant.org/TedEd] -- Your antivirus squad is up against a code that’s hijacked your mainframe. What you’ve learned from other infected systems, right before they went dark, is that it likes to toy with antivirus agents in a very peculiar way— and you’re the agent that’s been selected to go up against the malware. Can you figure out which disk that runs your mainframe has been corrupted? James Tanton shows how. Lesson by James Tanton, directed by Igor Coric, Artrake Studio.

Discover the unique conditions that make the Black Sea host to dozens of shipwrecks that date back thousands of years. -- In 2017, researchers off the Bulgarian coast discovered the oldest intact shipwreck ever found. This ancient Greek vessel was not only nearly 2,500 years old, but was just one of 65 shipwrecks found at the bottom of the Black Sea in remarkable condition. So, why does the Black Sea contain so many well-preserved shipwrecks? Helen Farr and Jon Adams dive into the depths of the unique body of water.

Why are scientists catapulting mushrooms into orbit? - Shannon Odell

Explore the unique characteristics that make fungi so resilient, and find out why they may be the key to future space travel. -- Astronauts aboard the space station Mir made a frightening discovery: several species of Earth-derived fungi were found growing throughout the shuttle, blanketing air conditioners and corroding control panels, putting both the station’s integrity and their lives at risk. How had the fungi survived the journey to space? Shannon Odell shares why fungi may be the key to our future on other planets. Lesson by Shannon Odell, directed by Denys Spolitak.
