SEEKING OUT NEW LIFE
Scientists look for other planets like Earth.

Five years ago scientists found there were other solar systems not just ours. Scientists now believe there are our other living things in the solar systems. They are using powerful telescopes and high technology to search out alien life. In a few years time they hope to have found out more about other life forms.

Although a snowflake is 90% air it can still produce a loud noise when it hits a pond or lake. Scientists at four universities that have discovered that they can make a real racket! The noise is too high to hear. It is caused by bubbles not the snowflake hitting the water. The bubbles vibrate under the surface.
