This particular lecture is called "How Stars Shine: Cosmic Furnaces"

(Does an excerpt count as a "derivative work"? I get the impression that a "derivative work" would be more like if I combined a bit from one of these lectures in a documentary, or spliced it together with footage from the MIT channel or something...)
