Welcome to Science Quest! 🚀 This week, we are counting down to World Ocean’s Day by tracking deep-sea defenders, investigating a spectacular rocket explosion, and going beyond the edge of the cosmos to find out what space is actually inside of.


💥 Rocket Crash: Blue Origin’s latest test rocket has exploded right at launch! Find out what went wrong and why it couldn’t even get off the ground.


🐬 Saving the North Sea Dolphins: With World Ocean’s Day coming up on June 8th, Ruth Williams (Head of Marine Conservation at The Wildlife Trusts) joins us to explain why governments need to step up right now to protect the amazing dolphins swimming off our coasts.


🧬 The Blueprint for Forever: Daliah asks a massive question: why can't humans live forever? We dive into the biology of aging and look at why our cells have an ultimate expiration date.


🌌 The Edge of the Cosmos:Andrew Tolley from Imperial College London tackles Shiloh’s mind-bending question: what exactly is space inside of? Prepare to have your brain stretched to the absolute edge of the universe!


🌱 Dangerous Dan: Watch out for the Cape Sundew! It looks like a beautiful, sparkly plant, but it’s actually a ruthless carnivore that uses sticky, glue-covered tentacles to trap insects and digest them alive.


🧠 Brain Box: Geomicrobiologist Jess Mackie from the British Geological Survey steps into the Brain Box to introduce us to the invisible, microscopic army of microbes running our world from deep underground!

And hop into the submarine with young explorer Marina Ventura and her trusty digital sidekick, Map App! On this week's wild ocean adventure, we are discovering the incredible, hidden impact that marine creatures have on the health of our planet. From microscopic plankton making the air we breathe to deep-sea engineers changing the ocean currents, find out how the animals inside the water actually keep the whole ocean alive!
