MinuteEarth
From the creators of the popular science show with millions of YouTube subscribers comes the MinuteEarth podcast. Every episode of the show dives deep into a science question you might not even know you had - but once you hear the answer, you’ll want to share it with everyone you know. Our team of scientists digs into the research and breaks it down into a short, entertaining explanation jam-packed with science facts and terrible puns. We’ll tell the incredible story of how monkeys crossed the Atlantic ocean on natural rafts, and we’ll explain why it gets hotter the deeper you dig underground.

What do YOU have in common with an Electric Eel? 25.10.2026 1:32
An electric eel can deliver a shock of as much as 860 volts, which is about seven times higher than the voltage of the average US power outlet. That’s enough to paralyze other animals, or even kill them outright. Being able to produce electric shocks sounds… well… shocking, but all animals are capable of producing electricity – even you. Every time an animal’s nerve or muscle cell fires, it...
What is kangaroo care - and why is it one of the best ways to help save at-risk premature babies 24.10.2026 1:57
One of the best ways to help save at-risk premature babies is to have their parents spend hours snuggling them to their bare chests; it's called kangaroo care because the skin-to-skin contact it creates is a lot like the cozy confines of a kangaroo’s pouch. There seems to be a couple major reasons it works so well. First, kangaroo care is a great way to keep a baby warm. Premature babies have less...
Milk Stealing 18.10.2026 1:55
One of the strangest-ever crime sprees hit a small town in England in 1921. It wasn't murder or bank robbery - instead, people were finding that the milk bottles delivered to their houses would have the foil caps pierced and the cream on top of the milk sucked out. Turns out, birds - specifically a species called great tits - had learned a new way to find a meal. The wildest part is that within a...
Why space rocks are so hard to find 17.10.2026 1:54
There are a few reasons space rocks are so hard to find. For starters, more than two thirds of the Earth is covered with water, so for all the meteorites that actually get to Earth, most of them splash down into oceanic obscurity. For a meteorite to be discovered and studied, it has to land… on land. most meteorites that ARE found are found in Earth’s deserts. And it turns out that the biggest des...
How Do Birds Use GPS? 11.10.2026 1:30
Birds are incredible navigators that can travel half the world to find the same patch of forest or ponds every single year. Many birds learn their migration routes from older, more experienced birds while others make their migrations alone following maps encoded in their genes. They track their positions using the sun, stars, and even landmarks like rivers. But when all of these things fail, some...
Birds have an embarrassing problem... 10.10.2026 1:55
This bird has a superpower most animals don’t have: it can fly. And the reason birds can fly is because every part of their body is optimized for an airborne life. Birds have really efficient – and kinda weird – respiratory systems. They don’t just have two lungs like we do – they also have air sacs tucked away in their bodies to hold extra air. Birds also have really big hearts to pump blood to t...
