Ahoy, Explorer. My name's Dan. Thank you for coming back for a brand new science searching adventure.

Let's scour the solar system. It's the Fun Kids Science Weekly.

Yeah, well, twice a week now, you and me, we search through the universe to try and find all those brilliant science little bits that

are lurking and almost completely undiscovered.

This week, have you ever watched a plane lift off and you've thought, are you joking?

That's massive.

How on earth can it fly?

Well, this week we're breaking down the brilliant science of what makes it take off.

How can planes fly? That is how can they float? How can they stay in the air? If I try to jump into the air, earth will drag me down. So I need a force that will be opposite and equal to my

weight. Also, you can hear about a brilliantly deadly rock, and we're plunging down into the ocean's

deepest depths to explore a world darker, stranger and more extreme than anywhere else.

It's so difficult to get down to the bottom of the ocean.

The average depth of the deep ocean, it's four to five thousand meters deep.

And if we've got things like satellites, they can only observe the surface.

So the temperatures on the surface, they can't get down into the deep, deep ocean.

That's coming up in a brand new Fun Kid Science Weekly. Let's start with your

science in the news and volcanic eruption around the year 1345 might have set off a chain reaction

that unleashed Europe's most deadly pandemic, the Black Death

Plague. Scientists have been studying tree rings and they've seen clues that suggest an eruption

of a volcano back then caused a massive climate shock across the world. So what happens? Experts say

that ash and gases from the eruption would have

flew into the air. They would have caused extreme drops in temperature because the sun can't get through,
