Hello, welcome along. My name's Dan. This is the Fun Kids Science Weekly. Thank you so much for downloading and streaming and playing. However you've found us, thank you very much for doing so. Now, what we do here, it couldn't be simpler. All we try and do is learn every single mystery that the universe has ever presented and try and figure it out for ourselves,

okay? I mean, if it's something sciencey, then we care what it is. This week, it's strange.

We've got a dangerous town that is so complicated you need to properly switch your brain on.

Just talking about it is going to send me in a spin, I know. The thing is, what's strange, is that it's just an idea. We don't know if it's even real yet, so that's what's amazing. We'll

also talk about a new mission to get close to the sun, and we'll hear some terrible news about

bumblebees. That's on the way. We've got questions today too, your questions, your science

questions, all about the curve of the Earth, about fight or flight,

and about the meteor that killed the dinosaurs. That's on the way first. Let's get a lesson

from the smartest school outside of the solar system. This is Professor Pulsar.

Deep Space High, destination Mars.

Jump into a way home and travel to deep space high.

The school is space.

But hurry, because lessons are about to begin.

Whoa!

Make you meet!

Afternoon, everyone.

We're in the robotics laboratory today because we're going to start getting to grips with designing a robot

that can withstand the conditions on Mars.

Like the Exo Mars rover?

That's one of the robots they're sending to Mars in the next few years.

That's right.

We'll be looking at the Exomars Rover's design features to learn more.
