👁Ethical dilemma: Should we get rid of mosquitoes?
🧠Talya Hackett
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English | 🇹🇷Turkish

👣Mosquitoes are responsible for more human deaths every year than any other animal, but very few of the 3,500 mosquito species actually transmit deadly diseases to humans. Scientists have been conducting experiments using engineered technologies called gene drives that could theoretically get rid of the most lethal mosquitoes. So, should we eradicate these pesky insects? Talya Hackett investigates. [Directed by Luísa M H Copetti, Hype CG, narrated by Bethany Cutmore-Scott, music by Gabriel Maia].

🧠 TED-Ed
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English | 🇹🇷Turkish

So, why does rejection trigger such a strong response, and is there any way to cope with this unique kind of pain? Explore common strategies to help you process this emotional experience.

👁When are you actually an adult?
🧠Shannon Odell
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English | 🇹🇷Turkish

👣Most countries recognize 18 as the start of adulthood by granting various freedoms and privileges. Yet there's no exact age or moment in development that we can point to as having reached full maturity. If there's no consensus on exactly when we reach maturity, when do we actually become adults? Shannon Odell shares how scientists define adulthood using stages of brain development. [Directed by Biljana Labović, narrated by Alexandra Panzer, Gen Parton-Shin, May Yoshioka, music by Weston Fonger, Samuel Bellingham].

🧠Jean-Baptiste P. Koehl

👁The bizarre world of parasitic wasps
🧠Miles Zhang
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English | 🇹🇷Turkish

👣A cockroach and jewel wasp are locked in battle. The wasp latches onto the cockroach and inserts her stinger into the cockroach's brain, where her venom blocks its fight-or-flight response. Now, the cockroach is essentially a zombie, and its carcass will be used to grow the wasp's offspring. Miles Zhang explores the gruesome evolutionary strategy known as parasitoidism.

👁How do airplanes actually fly?
🧠Raymond Adkins
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English | 🇹🇷Turkish

👣By 1917, Albert Einstein had explained the relationship between space and time. But, that year, he designed a flawed airplane wing. His attempt was based on an incomplete theory of how flight works. Indeed, insufficient and inaccurate explanations still circulate today. So, where did Einstein go wrong? And how exactly do planes fly? Raymond Adkins explains the concept of aerodynamic lift.

🧠Audra A. Diptée
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English | 🇹🇷Turkish

👣In 2009, five Kenyan people took a petition to the British Prime Minister. They claimed they endured human rights abuses in the 1950s, while Kenya was under British colonial rule, and demanded reparations. They had no documentary evidence that Britain sanctioned systems of torture— but thousands of secret files were waiting to be discovered. Audra Diptée digs into the Operation Legacy documents.

👁What makes a language... a language?
🧠Martin Hilpert
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English | 🇹🇷Turkish

👣Outside of China, Mandarin and Cantonese are often referred to as Chinese dialects, despite being even more dissimilar than Spanish and Italian.
