In this out-of-this-world episode, host Ticky Tocket brings you the coolest science news for curious minds aged 7 to 9. First up, we're blasting off to space to learn about a brand-new planet named GJ 3378b!

Ticky explores the big question: could this new planet have water or air? Then, get ready for the Giant Space Camera! We'll travel to the Rubin Observatory in Chile, home to the biggest camera in the world. This super camera is on a mission to take pictures of the entire night sky every few nights for ten whole years. It has already spotted over 11,000 new space rocks, like comets and asteroids, as well as twinkling stars and faraway galaxies. The best part? Scientists are sharing all these amazing photos so kids can explore the universe right from home! Back on Earth, Ticky shares a mild and sunny Wednesday weather forecast for Lindfield (a chilly 11 degrees in the morning, warming up to a mild 19) and reminds us that our very own sun is actually a star. Finally, Ticky leaves listeners with a wonderful thought for the day: stay curious, ask lots of questions about the world around you, be kind to everyone in our little corner of the universe, and remember—just like the giant camera taking pictures night after night, the most wonderful things take time and patience.
