Nice! We need more science news like this, with the general science news bites and a small breakdown and explanation in your style, coz you have a great way of explaining and breaking down the science into something that people can understand, especially the younger audience. Thank you and hi from Australia!
An interesting thing is that nature seems to be finding a way to eat the plastic. This is not a good thing when you think about it for a while. In the US, a lot of houses have their plumbing done with plastic pipes. There are many other places where we are depending on the plastic remaining for the very long term. Nature solving the problem of how to eat this stuff seems like a path towards a lot of the small infrastructure we count on failing because somebody ate it.

Those apocalypse meals.....maybe try them during a zombie movie fest. Wasn't there a town in Alaska that had a cat for a mayor? I suppose a bot could do it. I stepped on a broken beer bottle on the beach as a teenager...I think stepping on a Lego would be better... These science videos are great...sort of like the Sunday Science section that used to be in newspapers.
Hey Fran. Look up a person named Sophie Wilson, a key person in the creation of the UK BBC Micro computer. One of my all time hearos. And who has more in common with you than you may at first consider.
Love the news editions. Weekly would be fantastic - there's more than enough interesting news. :) I haven't seen any other channels covering the whole tech/engineering/etc. spectrum - the news always comes from a more specific slant such as astronomy, physics and the like. Thanks for all the videos!
Whoa, carbonated asteroids?? Maybe thats how Coca-Cola came to this planet!! I love astronomy, the main thing I get out of it is just the sheer mind-blowing factor like just thinking about our galaxy so huge it takes light hundreds of millions of years to travel from one side to another, then imagining that speeding through a void so much more vast. It feels like using my brain to stretch one of those mid-nineties rubber band home workout gizmos just trying to imagine the scale of the universe and just how empty and vast it all is.
The idea of rogue planets boggles my mind, there could be a rare chance of a civilization frozen in time after some cataclysmic event that knocked them out. Perfectly perserved from the cold in space. I guess would start to thaw out if one got into our solar system, but maybe if it was very far we could keep it a frozen graveyard of exploration one day. That star travelling fast is pretty fascinating too, it could turn into a rogue sun! Maybe it can find some rogue planets to warm up and be friends with, start a whole new solar system after both being tossed out. That would be a cool cosmic story. There could exists chance roque solar systems like this, not part of any galaxy. You never know. Whatever it is, i bet the truth is even stranger then we can think up. Maybe there will be some survivors burried deep into the planet that warmed up to the planets core, and can tell us how to use their warp drive ships.
Hi Fran, i heard a few years ago you said something and i cant remember or find the video,i think it was somthing that dosnt happen untill sept,24, ans it stuck, its so important i cant remeber
SLS is far from a perfect program, make no mistake, but I still think it's good for NASA and the US to maintain its own capacity for launching flights to space. Not merely private options which could one day disappear to the storms of economics. And Starship is an amazing system, but it hasn't delivered anything to orbit, SLS has, Starship isn't even a final design and they haven't really even demonstrated with certainty that the design is viable. I like SpaceX and I think they'll figure it out eventually but I suspect figuring out the reentry with flaps and hinges is going to be a real bugbear to deal with. SLS is fraught with errors and inefficiency, but it's not a mistake in whole. We should learn from these errors to make for more effective plans in the future, but for now we need to accept that we need the SLS.
I tried that ready wise crap years ago for multi day hikes and rides off grid . It's terrible. Barely edible. Any other brand of dried food is better. I only use that shit for hiking tho
Light speed is approximately 671 million miles per hour. It would take 46 billion years to reach the edge of the known universe.

They did put a stay on the eviction, the landlord and the Conservancy are headed into mediation!
Never was there a more savage, bloodthirsty and downright grim species than the green men of Mars, the Tharks.
Always glued to the TV when the "Science News" episodes come along....all information I wouldn't have caught otherwise...thanks so much......R
Airborne bacteria and fungi. They have collected bacteria and fungi in orbit.
Always grand to watch your take on the goings on; thank ya Fran!

It's a common error to confuse inverse square with logarithmic.

Our galaxy, the Milky Way, has a diameter of approx. 100 thousand light-years .

Yes please keep doing science news but my favorite part of every episode is the ending song I go berserk for it!!
Me too! It makes me groove everytime I hear it.
.........she's Fran 🙂
It's better if you speed it up.

Really cool thank you!
Thanks Fran!

Mmm… moistened dust! Thanks for the news!
Looking forward to your live edition tomorrow.
Star Liner more like StarTrap..
BTW Fran looks really cool in that Red Shirt..
Make them longer ... 24/7/365!
I enjoy your science news videos -- thanks!
Great, interesting stuff Fran and you had me laughing over here in the UK with the bunker food coverage😀
i think microwave towers transmit in the order of 100 watts, unlike the thousands by radio towers of old.
yay! I love the science news bits :)
Is that Pee-wee Herman behind you?
I tried that ready wise crap years ago for multi day hikes and rides off grid . It's terrible. Barely edible. Any other brand of dried food is better.
I only use that shit for hiking tho
Always watch Frans science news!
❤️🔥🫂❤️🔥
0:47 - Would reentry have been successful with the added weight of a crew aboard?
Paging Dr. Heisenberg :)
