      I’m really excited about somebody finding life, or at least remains of life (like perhaps fossilised microbes?) on a different planet or moon as well as about the possibility of humans colonising Mars! 🚀

      I think making nuclear fusion work. Is sounds scary because it has the word “nuclear” in it, but it’s a perfectly safe process that makes nothing radioactive, only water. It’s also not possible to be dangerous, because if it gets out of control then the process stops because of how the physics works.

      It’s how the sun makes energy, and is effectively free to produce – we could do it for hundreds of thousands of years and make less pollution than a car ride to school in that entire time.

      It’ll solve the world’s energy crisis. It’s just really hard to make it work!!!
