This is an episodic podcast, so you can listen to it in any order, but episode one is a great place to start.
Listen to episode one hereHow are mountains made? What causes an earthquake? How does hot lava come bubbling up? The answer in each case is…tectonic plates!
These are giant, moving slabs of rock covering the Earth’s surface. When they slide past or smash into each other it shakes the planet. But, they also helped shape the land we live on.
Find out how they work with an extreme cooking demonstration (you’ll never see peanut M&Ms the same way). Meet the scientist who thought long ago all the continents were smushed together in a super-continent (spoiler: he was right!). Plus an interview with a USGS scientist about what our planet might look like in a million years.
All that plus a mystery sound and a Moment of Um about stinky breath. Listen up and rock on!
