About this episode
It’s time for another journey through the weirdest, wildest, and most wonderful parts of science on the Fun Kids Science Weekly! In this episode, we answer YOUR questions, crown a new champion in Battle of the Sciences, and uncover the amazing science hiding in animal patterns. First up, we discover that a meteorite which landed in the USA is actually older than planet Earth itself! Then, we sink our teeth into a new study showing that dinosaurs were surprisingly fussy eaters, before heading to Patagonia with Professor Neill Gasser to learn why the Perito Moreno Glacier is changing so rapidly. Next, it's time for your questions...Maddie wants to know how far space goes, and Dr László Tálas reveals why tigers are covered in so many stripes! In Dangerous Dan, we meet the Scolopendra catapora centipede — a venomous, lightning-fast creepy-crawly you definitely wouldn’t want to meet in the wild. And in Battle of the Sciences, Professor Cock van Oosterhout makes the case for Evolutionary Genetics, revealing the science behind what makes you… YOU! Plus, the Aquanauts uncover why fresh water is so rare on Earth and the ingenious ways scientists are finding new sources to keep our planet hydrated. What do we learn about? · How a meteorite can be older than planet Earth · Why dinosaurs were picky eaters · The secrets behind tiger stripes · The venomous Scolopendra catapora centipede · And in Battle of the Sciences… how Evolutionary Genetics shapes every one of us!
