Boldly going where no science show has gone before.

The Naked Scientists.

Hello, welcome to this week's naked scientists with Kat Arnie.

Hello.

And Dave Ansel?

Hi there.

And I'm Chris Smith.

Now this week we'll be finding out how unmanned airplanes could soon be shuttling urgent samples from patients

to remote places in testing labs.

We'll also be finding out how internet anti-spam systems are helping researchers to decode

old documents and manuscripts and getting to the heart of a coronary

we'll be hearing how a new way has come about to reduce the damage that's being done by heart attacks.

That's all on the way, Kat.

Thanks, Chris. This week it's also our science question and answer show, so we'll be tackling your science

questions, including finding out why we stop noticing smells after a short time.

Yes, you do.

Why different shaped objects thrown into a pond always produce circular

ripples and how does a Newton's cradle work? That's the thing with the silver

flicky balls that you find on important people's desks. We'll also be shedding some light on this

illuminating question. Hi I'm Sandra and I'm calling from Melbourne. I was just

wondering is there any radiation that would come from a glow-on-the-dark

watch that could be harmful to the wearer.
