In this episode, we will learn all kinds of fascinating science from the questions you sent in! Questions like why we feel pain, and how it's our body's way of protecting us by sending warning signals to the brain. Why we vomit, and the amazing teamwork between your brain and belly that helps protect you from things that might make you sick. Then we learn why buses are so bumpy, especially in the back. Next, we will travel back in time to learn about the ancient Greeks' contributions to science, from inventing early machines to posing profound questions about the stars. And finally, we discover why we sometimes see the Moon during the day and how our Moon was formed long, long ago—from a dramatic crash in Earth's early days!Sleep Tight!, Sheryl & Clark❤️👂📖 --- ✨ Want more stories and fewer interruptions?
