Usually Dan is the one chatting about rockets and jetting off around the solar system, but this week we have a very special guest on the podcast to chat about rocketry! Ted Melville is here to talk about how he got into rocket building, and his team's journey to the World Spacemodeling Championships in Austin, Texas! Along with Charlie and Wilfred, these three teens from the East Anglian Rocketry Society will fly over to the US to compete in a host of rocket builds.
Dan's answering your questions about teeth and planets and we learn about a very stinky defence mechanism in Dangerous Dan!
