Two films produced by the w88 online sports betting of Science will be featured in this year’s Sci-On! w88 online sports betting Festival. Transitioning from live venues to an all-online format, Sci-On! will become Northern Nevada’s first online w88 online sports betting festival. Moviegoers will have access to six days of short films, May 4-9, and special events, including a virtual May the Fourth Celebration.
Fertile Waters
The first of the w88 online sports betting’s films featured in the festival is the short documentary Fertile Waters. Located in Northwest Mongolia at the confluence of the Eg and the Uur Rivers, hundreds of miles from the closest urbanized city exists one of the last strongholds of the giant Eurasian trout, the Hucho taimen (known locally as taimen). This endangered fish species can grow up to 72 inches, weigh up to 200 pounds and live as long as 55 years. Researchers from the w88 online sports betting of Science, including Professor Zeb Hogan of the National Geographic television show Monster Fish with Zeb Hogan, have been studying the fish and its ecosystem for the past 15 years. Fertile Waters explores how things have changed in this remote area of Mongolia over the past 15 years, and contemplates the future of this unique ecosystem.
Fertile Waters was also an official selection in the 2020 Sigma Xi STEM Art and w88 online sports betting Festival.
Mineral Monday with Vera: Ichthyosaur
The second of the two films is an episode of the w88 online sports betting’s video series Mineral Monday. Mineral Monday is an online educational video series exploring the many amazing minerals, fossils, and historical objects on display at the W.M. Keck Earth w88 slot online and Mineral Engineering Museum as told by curator Garrett Barmore. Launched in January of 2018, the series has been played in classrooms and homes around the country.In its two and a half years running, the series has expanded to include field trip episodes, episodes in partnership with local w88 online sports betting historical and geological organizations and companies, and the launch of the first-ever Mineral Monday competition inviting school-aged children to submit their own videos inspired by the series.
The episode featured in the w88 online sports betting, Mineral Monday with Vera: Ichthyosaur, features the Mineral Monday competition winner Vera.

Both films were shot and edited by w88 online sports betting of Science filmmaker Jennifer Kent. The two films will be screened on Tuesday, May 5 at 7 p.m. Winners will be chosen by live vote following the screenings.
