CLINTON, N.J., February 22, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Calcium, one of the more widely known elements in science, is next up on the menu for Thor Giese as he cooks through the periodic table. On Feb. 25, Thor, from Thor's Outdoor Science Academy™, will release the 20th video in the series, this one featuring calcium by cooking cheese curds over an open fire. 

The New Jersey native is a trained archaeologist and the academy is now producing Table for 92 - Cooking Through the Periodic Table of Elements™, with Thor literally cooking outdoors using the 92 naturally occurring elements from the periodic table. The video series can be found on Thor's YouTube channel

"As I continue making these videos, the thing that really blows my mind is how recent these elements were discovered and how long it took for some of the elements to find a use in modern society," Thor said. "Some elements were discovered as recently as the 1800s but didn't really find a use in technology until the mid-1900s."

With 72 more elements to feature, new videos are added to Thor's YouTube channel regularly.
