Learning About Heat (1955)

This is the only “Junior” film we here at ThinkStream films have seen from the EB film cannon. From this film, we learn all about heat and heat conductivity through a variety of experiments with ice, snow, fire, metals, and some severely outdated science-lab equipment! Check out that fab fifties refrigerator and nifty animation!
Of special note: The narrator says, “Ice is thought by scientists to be made up of tiny partials called molecules!” Unbelievable!




Note: The following clip was taken directly from the original 16mm print and has been edited to a fraction of the film's original length.
