If you've ever wondered how the universe works, you are not alone. In fact, this is a question humanity has been trying to answer since... forever! One huge science mystery is dark matter. We can tell it's there because of the way light bends around in space, and scientists think it could hold the key to many science secrets. That's why the Euclid Mission is underway to study dark matter in the universe, and Dhara Patel from the National Space Centre is here to tell us all about it! 

You've been asking away and Dan has been doing some science digging to answer your questions! How do time zones work, and what's a blue supermoon? And WHAT is a zombie worm?! Listen to find out!
