Author: Fun Kids May 10, 2025 Duration: 31:59

It’s time for another trip around the solar system on the BIGGER and BETTER Science Weekly!

In this episode of the Fun Kids Science Weekly, we answer YOUR questions, have scientists battle it out to determine which science is the best, and this week we're learning all about the power of neurosurgery!

Dan kicks off with the latest science news, starting with some hopeful news for one of the world's most endangered species. Next, as David Attenborough celebrates his 99th birthday, we take a look at one of the most important films of his legendary career. And finally, Jon Carter from the British Trust for Ornithology explains how the warm spring will bring exotic birds across the English Channel. 

Then, we answer your questions! Jess wants to know: Why babies are born with more bones than adults? And Dr. Thomas Woolley from Cardiff University answers Ziholi's question: How many milliseconds are there in 1000 centuries?

In Dangerous Dan, we learn all about the Fennec Fox.

In Battle of the Sciences, paediatric neurosurgeon Professor Ian Kamily from the Royal College of Surgeons of England  explores the incredible workings of the brain — and why it’s one of the most important organs in the human body 

What do we learn about?

·   Good news for one of the world's rarest species 
·   The arrival of exotic birds to the UK
·   Why babies have more bones than adults?
·   How many milliseconds are in 1000 centuries?
·   And in Battle of the Sciences, the importance of the brain!

All on this week's episode of Science Weekly!
