    In this collection of classic MinuteEarth videos, we take a look at one of Earth’s most critical - and unique - features.
    We originally created the videos in the “MinuteEarth Explains” series for another project. But we know that lots of people right now are looking for really good online educational content - and something to take their mind off current events - so we decided to release them here as well. We’d love to know what you think, so leave us a comment below!
    These are the episodes featured in this compilation:
    0:25 - Where Did Earth's Water Come From?
    • Where Did Earth's Wate...
    3:05 - Why Are There Clouds?
    • Why Are There Clouds?
    5:46 - Why Do Rivers Curve?
    • Why Do Rivers Curve?
    8:31 - UPSIDE-DOWN Rivers On Mars?!
    • UPSIDE-DOWN Rivers On ...

    Sometimes I just stop and think how incredibly useful water is. We need to keep hydrated in order to be healthy, it's a very useful solvent into which a great deal of things can be dissolved. It's obviously great for cleaning our bodies and our environment. Oil doesn't mix with it, so if we use soap, that provides a slippery layer on top of our skin which allows dirt and germs to be rinsed off and taken away from our skin, leaving us nice and clean. It's like this amazing chemical substance that we need all the time for so many uses.

      @@TheyCallMeHacked Well, what does it even mean to be something? Does that have to be an intrinsic property of the substance or can it be extrinsic? And do we only define water as liquid water or de we also include ice and vapor (and plasma, technically, I guess, and a shit ton more of different states)? And if we do include ice and water vapor they're only really wet because they turn into liquid water when they btouch your skin, so I think it's fair enough to say that only water in its liquid form is wet, which is true for a lot of stuff.

    • @TheyCallMeHacked
      @TheyCallMeHacked Před 4 lety

      @@randomguy263 I wouldn't even consider liquid water to be wet. It all depends on the definition of "wet". To me, something to be wet means that it has liquid water in or on it such that water is in a minority. Therefore a cup is not wet, but full, but a towel is wet. Though water is water so it can't have itself in or on itself and surely not in minority...

    2:59 Emily, isn't it the other way around. It takes the sky to make the water blue. Sky's blue due to reighley scattering, which in turn makes oceans blue due to reflection. Correct me if I'm wrong here..

    • @MrT------5743
      @MrT------5743 Před 4 lety +1

      The water vapor in the sky AND water in the ocean scatters blue wavelengths slightly more. That is due to Rayleigh scattering. That is why at sunset you start to see the reddish colors coming through cause the blue is all scattered out and only red shifted wavelengths remains to be scattered. So water is the reason for the blue sky and blue oceans.

      @@cageybee7221 No it's the opposite : the ocean is blue mostly because the sky is blue. The sky is blue because light from the sun is diffused by the atmosphere, and blue is much more dffused than other colors, which also explains why the sun is red when close to the horizon (other colors are diffused before reaching your eyes). I'm not aware of what role water plays in that diffusion by the atmosphere. To be clear, liquid water also diffuses blue light, but the atmosphere does it first.

      When a video initially uploads, the comments appear well after they've been commented. I got here 2 seconds after it was uploaded and the comments were empty, but it said that the video has 20 comments. A refresh was all that's needed to show them all.
      You lost, but so did nearly everyone
