Understanding how computers work has become an increasingly necessary skill. Coding is the act of instructing a computer, app, phone or website to do any number of tasks. In this program we examine how coding is changing the way we live, work, learn, and play, one application at a timeComputer science, the impact of computers, Perhaps no invention has impacted our everyday lives more than the computer. Computers have transformed the fields of science, medicine, education, entertainment and research, to name a few. Computers have become an indispensable part of our lives. From a steam-driven prototype developed in the early 1800s, to the first computer built in 1941, which could process 29 equations simultaneously, to the microprocessor developed by Intel--the evolution of the computer is amazing. The first computers, developed in the mid 1940s took up an entire room. Today the microprocessor, smaller than a fingernail, delivers immense computng capabilities to run today's applicationsAstronomy NASA's deep space exploration, Once again, America is leading the world in a bold new adventure to ensure the expansion of knowledge, economic growth, as well as a better understanding of life and how the universe functions. Deep space exploration will open new worlds of learning and technological advancement that will lead to new discoveries in medicine, technology, engineering and physics. This exciting program explores NASA's capability to take humanity farther into the solar system than we have ever gone before and will look at the science behind this fantastic journey
