Attack of the 88-Foot Dinosaur: Meeting the New Giant, Nagatitan! 🦕💥

Welcome to Science Quest! 🚀 This week, we are unlocking the ultimate time-traveling, planet-protecting secrets of our world. We’re going from microscopic rain forest heroes to the largest prehistoric titans to ever walk the earth. • 🐸 The Great Frog Rescue: London Zoo has just welcomed two critically endangered, vanishingly rare frog species all the way from Ghana! Meet the tiny, coin-sized Afia Birago's puddle frog and the unique Atewa slippery frog—a species that actually "whistles" when it calls! • 🦖 Southeast Asia's Last Titan: Paleontologists have just uncovered a brand-new dinosaur species in Thailand! Named Nagatitan, this colossal, long-necked giant grew over 88 feet long and weighed as much as nine adult elephants, completely rewriting the history of prehistoric monsters. • 🌳 Trees vs. Tarmac: Neil Davies from the Arboricultural Association joins us to talk about a hidden underground battle. We look at the serious, long-term damage that UK roads and heavy traffic are doing to the root systems of our oldest trees. • ☁️ Sky-High Physics: Charlotte wants to know: how can giant, heavy clouds float up in the sky without crashing down on us? We float the answers right your way! • 💧 The Cry Code: Sonia Trave-Huarte from Aston University joins us to answer Royce's question: how exactly are tears made, and why does your body produce them when you get emotional? • 🐙 Dangerous Dan: Dive deep into the ocean to meet the Blue Glaucus. Also known as the "Blue Dragon," this gorgeous, tiny sea slug floats upside down on the water and steals deadly venom from jellyfish to use against its own enemies! • 🧠 Brain Box: Paleobiologist Emily Rayfield steps into the Brain Box to dig up the ancient secrets buried right beneath our feet. And jump into a time machine and travel 145 million years into the past! We’re breaking down the shift from the Jurassic to the Cretaceous Period. The world's climate changed dramatically, getting warmer and drier, which allowed a massive explosion of new species to thrive. Find out why more dinosaurs ruled the earth during the Cretaceous than at any other point in history!
