Robot Explorers Dark caves, frozen lakes and the deepest parts of the ocean – there are many places on Earth that are just too dangerous for people to visit. So, engineers across the world are designing robots that can go in our place. Let’s find out about some of them. Engineers are scientists that design objects to solve problems. Every object that you use for a specific job has been designed by an engineer from the roads you walk on to the pen you use to write with. Robots are machines designed by engineers to do jobs that are too dangerous, dirty or boring to be done by humans. Engineers are designing robots that are able to explore dangerous places on Earth.

But did you know that only a few hundred years ago Britain was home to lots of other animals like wolves, lynx, bison and even bears?

Journey to the asteroids Let us take a journey back in time to billions of years ago. The Solar System as we know it does not exist – there is no Sun, no planets and no moons, just a cloud of gas and dust swirling through the darkness of space. How did this become the Solar System we know today? Scientists have different ideas about how the Solar System formed – we are not sure exactly what happened because nobody was there to see it. Ideas that are supported by data or observations (evidence) are called hypotheses.

Plastic not so fantastic Plastic is a really useful material – it can be moulded into lots of different shapes, it’s waterproof and durable. Plastic might look like a wonder material, but there is a problem. It’s thought that more than eight million tonnes of plastic enter the world’s oceans every year. That is about the same mass as 2 million elephants – it’s very difficult to imagine just how much plastic this is – but it’s a lot!

Return to the moon The last time a person walked on the Moon was in 1972, but there are plans to return there very soon. Engineers are building a brand new rocket for this new mission. The new NASA mission to return people – including the first woman and person of colour - to the Moon’s surface in 2024 is called Artemis. This name has been chosen for a reason. In Ancient Greek mythology, Artemis is a Goddess – twin sister to the God Apollo. And Apollo was the name of the NASA mission that took people to the Moon for the first time.
