The article "Exploring the Strangest Locations in the Universe, Where the Rules of Nature Don’t Always Apply" from BBC's Science Focus is about the strange and mysterious places in space and on Earth where the rules of nature seem to be different. These places include planets made of diamonds, stars that spin too fast, and black holes that stretch and squeeze time.
The article "Is Our Universe Stranger Than We Thought?" from BBC's Science Focus is a fascinating look at new research on the Universe that challenges what we thought we knew. Differences in how we measure the Universe's expansion and how galaxies are spread out suggest there may be missing pieces in our understanding of space.
The article "Everything You Need to Know About Space Travel (Almost)" from BBC's Science Focus covers the history of space travel, its importance for science and humanity, the challenges of interstellar travel, and the benefits of space exploration.
The article "Water found buried under Mars equator" from BBC's Science Focus showcases the discovery of ice beneath Mars' equator using data from ESA's Mars Express spacecraft. This finding could be crucial for future human missions to Mars, as the ice deposits could provide a valuable water source.
The article "Is It True That the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans Don’t Mix?" from BBC's Science Focus debunks the viral myth that these two oceans remain separate. It explains how their waters do mix due to ocean currents and salinity differences.
The article "Something Very Weird Is Happening to the Planet's Earthquakes; Here's Why" from BBC's Science Focus discusses earthquakes that occur away from fault lines, known as intraplate earthquakes. Scientists are studying factors like ice sheet melting and deep-earth stress to understand these mysterious seismic events.
The article "New Computer Model Helps Predict Volcano Eruptions More Accurately" from BBC's Science Focus details how scientists have created a model that improves eruption forecasts. By analyzing historical data from Italy’s Campi Flegrei, the model enhances predictions and helps in disaster preparedness.
The article "Can We Stop Hurricanes? Exploring Innovative Solutions" from BBC's Science Focus explores futuristic ideas to mitigate hurricane damage. Scientists are developing methods such as offshore wind farms and cooling ocean surfaces to weaken storms before they reach land.
In Does the Moon Effect Human Behavior? host Harith Iskander debunks myths that connect the Moon's phases to human behavior, particularly the idea of "lunacy" or madness. The Moon's gravitational pull does influence tides, but it does not have an effect on the water in our bodies, despite common myths. Learn about the Moon’s gravitational force and its real effects on Earth, as well as the science that dispels these longstanding myths. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Got Science?, a science magazine series that explores and explains science in everyday life.
Join the Go Jetters on a flying adventure around a fragile sea arch. In this fun story, you'll:
- Read out loud, changing the pictures for words.
- Learn how erosion transforms rocks into caves, arches, and stacks.
- Discover funky facts about rock formations.
In The Go Jetters Travel Down Giant's Causeway, the Go Jetters crew shares some rockin’ facts about the Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland! This cool place is home to seabirds that dive and nest on the cliffs. People once believed giants built this rocky road, but the real story? It’s all thanks to super-hot lava that cooled into amazing shapes — talk about a giant surprise! This video is excerpted from BBC’s Go Jetters, a series that follows the adventures of four plucky international heroes as they travel the globe visiting the world’s most famous landmarks with their friend and mentor, Ubercorn, a disco-dancing unicorn.
