0:00.0 | Hello, welcome along my name is Dan thanks for listening this is the smartest time of the whole week because it's time for a brand new episode of the fun kid science weekly in the next half hour or so |
0:13.1 | We will search through the entire universe and bring back some of the science secrets that we found lurking all around there this week |
0:21.4 | You can hear all about big cats if you have a cat you will love the guest that we've got on this week |
0:26.9 | He will explain why they move as they do why they hunt as they do why your cat is like some huge cats and you can hear why animals like the cheetah are so much faster than other creatures |
0:40.2 | The maximum speed you can go in a skateboard is defined by how quickly you can pull your leg back when your foot is on the ground |
0:47.2 | Does that make sense you get to the point where the skateboard is going to you quickly you just can't push yourself forward because you can't get your leg going back quickly enough |
0:55.0 | Also, we've got another episode from our brilliant Amy's aviation series Amy is a plain genius |
1:02.3 | She's been telling us how they stay in the air this week. It's all about metal framed planes |

1:43.1 | Let's kick things off with your science in the news |
1:48.5 | The launch of NASA's most powerful rocket ever has been delayed by a tropical storm |
1:54.8 | The Artemis one moon rocket was expected to launch from Florida last week |
1:59.3 | But threats of hurricanes postponed it for the third time |
2:03.0 | It's designed to send equipment and then people back to the moon for the first time in 50 years |
2:08.5 | And it seems we might need to wait a little while longer |
2:11.6 | Now obviously we want we want to be back in space, but we've waited for 50 years |
