Hi everybody here!
As science communicator a the moment I’m asked to find some educational videos for students about 14-18 years old. The topics are: cosmology, astronomy, geology, hydrology, oceanography, and all the so-called “earth sciences”.I need the videos aren’t copyright protected. I was wondering if anyone here could suggest information, sites, rescources, and so on. I really will appreciate any comment and suggestion.

You might want to look at the Internet Archive’s Moving Image Archive. I think almost all of the movies are public domain (“This collection is free and open for everyone to use.”)
A search on ‘geology’ turned up a couple of interesting videos, such as this lecture by UC Berkeley Geologist Doris Sloan.

@graham: I already knew ted.com.
I was just looking for educational videos for young school guys. Something with images, not lectures.@Hillary: thank you, I’ll check it out.
If you have any other suggestion from your collagues, even small things made during spare time, I’ll appreciate.

_Nature_’s videostreaming (all free) index page is here, but I am not sure how you’d find the level.
