Welcome to Science Quest! 🚀 This week, we’re going from viral owlets to the edge of our solar system, with a few stops in between to figure out why your body makes weird noises and how to build a bridge that won't fall down.

• 🦉 The Internet’s Favourite Owlets: Four newborn Tawny owlets have become massive social media stars! Find out why these fluffy chicks are attracting hundreds of thousands of fans and what it’s like to watch them grow up in real-time.

• 🪐 Atmosphere Alert: Scientists have spotted a small, mysterious object in our solar system that shows signs of having its very own atmosphere. Could this tiny world be hiding more secrets than we thought?

• 🌤️ Weather Shift: Resident expert Kirsty McCabe joins us to break down a potential new global weather pattern. Find out how these massive shifts in the sky could change the weather in your backyard!

• 🤔 The Hiccup Mystery: Archie wants to know why we get hiccups. We dive into the science of your diaphragm and the "glitch" in your brain that causes that annoying hic sound!

• 🚀 Rocket Life-Hunters: Christopher North answers Soufiane’s question: Have we ever attached satellites to rockets specifically to find alien life? We explore the high-tech tools we’re using to scan the galaxy.

• 🦅 Dangerous Dan: Watch out for the Terra Bird! Also known as "Terror Birds," these prehistoric giants were the ultimate flightless predators, with beaks strong enough to crush bone in a single snap.

• 🏗️ Brain Box: Engineer William Powrie joins us to talk all about the wonders of engineering. From the smallest gadgets to the biggest structures, we look at how engineers build our world.

And us for a trip to the Engineer Academy! We use bridges every day to cross rivers and roads, but did you know there are dozens of different types? We’re breaking down the physics and "B-grade" engineering secrets that keep these massive structures standing tall under the weight of thousands of cars!
