Get ready for another BIG and BRILLIANT journey into science on this week’s Science Weekly! We’re uncovering the amazing science that gets planes off the ground and diving deep into the ocean to explore one of the most extreme environments on Earth.

In Science in the News, we investigate whether a volcanic eruption helped trigger the Black Death, take a closer look at a mysterious earthquake in England, and meet Jonathan Growcott from Exeter University to discover the powerful science behind a lion’s mighty roar.

We also answerΒ  your questions... Patrice wants to know what the oldest living thing on Earth is, and Demetrios Venetsanos from Imperial College London explains exactly how planes work.

Dangerous Dan is back with another strange and surprising creature, the cinnabar rock.

And in Battle of the Sciences, Dr. Ben Moat takes us out to sea to explore the hidden world beneath the ocean’s surface.

Plus, Marina Ventura returns with another Ocean Adventure, revealing how oceans benefit humans and help keep our planet alive.

This week, we learn about:

How planes are able to fly

What causes earthquakes and deadly volcanic effects

Why a lion’s roar is so powerful

The mysteries of the deep ocean

How oceans help humans survive

All that and more on this week’s Science Weekly!
