Hello, welcome along to a brand new episode of the Fun Kids Science Weekly.

It's the first one of a new year.

The first one of a new decade, 2020, which sounds very sciencey.

2020 sounds very sci-fi, isn't it?

It sounds way more futuristic than 2019.

I mean, I know that's a stupid thing to say because it quite literally is more futuristic than 2019, but I don't know.

2020 just sounds more epic.

And it makes you wonder what incredible discoveries and inventions that are still to come in the future.

My name's Dan.

Thank you so much for giving us a listen.

This week we are headed to a place that is so quiet it can drive you insane.

Also, we'll learn about a brand new meat substitute that's made of air,

and we'll talk about the effect that the devastating Australian bushfires are having on the animals that live there.

Also, I'll answer some of your questions in a bit. Today, they're all about colour and vampire bats. First, let's start the show with a lesson

from the smartest school outside of the solar system as we go right back to the very start

of Deep Space High. Deep Space High, Spaceport.

Okay, everyone at Deep Space High, I'm ready to transmit my presentation on Spaceports.

You're going to love it.

Transmitting in three, two, one.

Have you ever imagined being an astronaut, experiencing weightlessness as you orbit the Earth, maybe visiting a neighbouring planet?

Now obviously we're pretty lucky because we get to go to Deep Space High.

But check this out, in the near future, everyone on Earth might have a chance to go into space and fly in the same way as they travel by air from airports.
