WCNY SciTech Now

Underwater Drones; Birds; Asteroids & Girl Coders

Season 8 Episode 6 | 26m 46s

Here in central New York we think of drones as eyes in the sky; we’ll take you on a ride with a drone that goes under water. Sit, stay… not commands for a dog… but for a bird. Researchers use asteroids to learn about space… meet the scientists who make them. Coders are mostly men, but not if a school in Texas has anything to say about it.
