OUR PLANET'S STORY: Why Earth Is Called Earth🌍📖

We may have a new name but it's still time for another BIG and BRILLIANT adventure into the world of science on this week’s Science Quest!

In Science in the News, scientists discover that Norwegian polar bears are healthier and fatter than ever, old boats are being sunk around the UK to create brand-new habitats for wildlife, and Meganne Christian from the UK Space Agency joins Dan to talk about the importance of women in science ahead of the International Day of Women and Girls in Science.

It’s time for your questions too. One listener wants to know why cats meow, and language expert Mercedes Durham from Cardiff University explains why our planet is called Earth.

Dangerous Dan is back with a strange and mysterious creature called the olm, and in Battle of the Sciences, things get rocky as Shaunna Morrison from Rutgers University makes the case for geoscience and why understanding the Earth beneath our feet really matters.

Plus, in Geology Rocks: Earth’s History, join Finley on a journey through time to explore fossils, volcanoes, and how rocks helped form our planet and even our universe.

What we learn about:

  • Why cats meow
  • How polar bears in Norway are doing and why it matters
  • How sinking old boats can help wildlife
  • Why women in science are so important
  • The strange underground creature called the olm
  • How rocks, fossils, and volcanoes reveal Earth’s history

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