How to Save Your Chips This Summer: Outsmarting Seagulls with Science 🍟👁️

Welcome to Science Quest! 🧪 This week, we’re scrubbing in for surgery at the zoo, outsmarting some hungry beach birds, and taking a multi-year road trip to Saturn!

What Do We Learn About?

And join Harry and Terry as they accidentally rocket past the moon and head straight for the jewel of the solar system!
