The skies are calling! It must be time to head into Dan’s spaceship and head off into SPACE! We have Dragon’s Den star and entrepreneur Deborah Meaden chatting to Dan this week all about the Everyday Engineering Competition. The Royal Academy of Engineering have teamed up with Deborah to find the most brilliant, inventive and sustainable feats of engineering from you and anyone who thinks they’ve got an amazing idea to make everyday life better! Winners will be voted for on National Engineering Day, 1st November. Find out everything you need to know about the Everyday Engineering competition here!
How can an army of crustaceans help climate change? Why do leaves change colour in autumn? Technology expert Maggie Philbin is chatting all about Europe Code Week and all the fun ways you can get involved, we hear about how copying and printing works with Techno Mum and how music can help astronauts in Deep Space High!
We’re chatting to actual factual fact expert Radzi Chinyanganya all about his new book, Radzi’s Incredible Facts! Radzi is here to chat about some of his favourite facts from the book, including why our brains are so amazing and how old you’ll be when you’ve lived for a billion seconds!

We’re boarding our rocket ship to Neptune this week! Professor Patrick Irwin from the University of Oxford is here to chat to Dan all about his research on the dark spots on Neptune. First discovered in the 1980s with new space faring technology, the spots can now be studied from Earth. This is no easy feat – they disappear and reappear all the time. And yet, Patrick and his team have made great strides in solving this science mystery!
Dan is here once again with his special research rocket ship to take you into the depths of space, and we’ll be spending some time with the animals down on Earth too! Conservationist and wildlife expert Lizzie Daly is here this week to tell you how you can make a difference and do your part to help animals. She’s talking about the Actions for Animals Guide, a list of 50 simple actions that foster coexistence between animals and people!
Put on your scuba gear, we’re going below the waves this week to check out some sharks! Eloise is a shark expert who went to the Bahamas with Steve Backshall, to study sharks and their environment for CBBC’s Deadly Mission Shark. Sharks have a bad reputation, but do they deserve it? It’s important that our animals are safe and protected, and Eloise has some ideas on how we can all help.
Welcome, Science Explorer! Ready to get clued up on all the amazing maths, chemistry, physics and general awesomeness that surrounds us this week? Yes? Then let’s get into it!
Welcome aboard the Science Weekly rocket! Dan is your captain and the destination is the far corners of the galaxy!
