Xploration Station, a weekend morning block of live-action, educational TV shows airing primarily on FOX TV stations around the country, will kick-off its third season on Saturday, September 10, 2016, by increasing its content from four to six half-hour shows, according to Steve Rotfeld, president of Steve Rotfeld Productions (SRP), who produces and distributes all six original series. Three new series will premiere, including Nat Geo Kids’ “Weird But True” and “DIY Sci”, hosted by YouTube star and Ellen regular, Steve Spangler.

Aimed towards kids 13-16, the block focuses on the “STEM fields” (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). All of the programs in Xploration Station are produced to meet federally-mandated educational programming guidelines.
