Secret Science

So you think everyday life is boring?! WHAT?! Hoo-ee, are you wrong!

No, seriously. There’s so much EXTRAORDINARY science going on right from the minute you wake up to when you go to sleep. Actually, while you’re asleep, too.

Science is a non-stop EVERYWHERE, everything adventure with some incredibly cool stuff going on, too.

You’ve got your incredible brain, which has worked out how to read these words and make playing a video game feel as EXCITING as real life; you’ve got aeroplanes that can somehow get from the ground into the sky with all those people AND their luggage on board; you’ve got electricity and artificial intelligence and GPS and buses coming in threes (that’s science too) and LOADS more.

In Secret Science, Dara O Briain takes you on a journey from the comfort of your favourite chair to the incredible science behind your everyday life and on into the future!
