Imagine digging around in your hometown and accidentally finding the bones of a creature as long as three school buses!
In this episode, weâre traveling to Thailand to meet a brand-new, real-life giant: Nagatitan chaiyaphumensis. Discovered by a local resident and studied by scientists for ten whole years, this massive plant-eater is officially the largest dinosaur ever found in Southeast Asia.
Grab your imaginary paleontology gear as we travel back 110 million years to learn all about this gentle giant. Weâll break down exactly what makes this massive creature so special, and how scientists piece together its ancient world.
In this episode, weâll answer:
How big is a "Titan"? We're talking 27 meters long and weighing as much as five adult elephants!
What's in a name? Learn why scientists named this long-necked dinosaur after the "Naga" (a magical, mythical serpent) and a "Titan" (a giant).
What was its home like? Discover how the area where it lived eventually turned into a shallow ocean.
Why is it called "The Last Titan"? Find out why this heavy-hitter might have been the last of the giant land-dwellers in that part of the ancient world.
Tune in to uncover the secrets of the ultimate heavy-weight champion of the Early Cretaceous period!

Have you ever had a stranger knock on your door? Well, our Solar System just had three strange visitors knock on ours!
In this episode, we take a journey to meet the Interstellar Objectsâspace rocks that came from way outside our neighborhood, zoomed past the Sun, and are heading back out into the deep dark.
Hereâs what weâll explore:
The Weird One ('Oumuamua): Meet the first visitor, a long, skinny rock that looks like a space cigar. It didn't act like a normal comet and sped up all on its own! Was it a rock... or maybe an alien spaceship? đœ
The Normal Cousins (Borisov & ATLAS): We look at the other two visitors, who acted much more like the icy comets we know, spitting out water and gas like a leaky hose.
The Great Space Chase: These visitors move fast. We talk about "Project Lyra," a wild plan where scientists want to build a super-fast rocket to chase 'Oumuamua down before it disappears forever.
Grab your space helmet and join us as we try to solve the mystery of these galactic wanderers!
