Squiz Kids

In this From The Vault episode, we rewind to uncover the real history behind the galaxy far, far away — exploring how events like the Vietnam War, ancient Rome, and even medieval knights helped shape the story.

From the rise of powerful empires to the rebels who fight against them, you’ll discover how real-world history inspired one of the most famous movie sagas ever made.

So, whether you’re a Jedi master or brand new to Star Wars… get ready to see it in a whole new way.

In this week’s Science Short, we explore how cats pull off this incredible trick without pushing off anything at all. It’s all thanks to something called the air-righting reflex, and a clever two-step twist that lets them rotate their bodies in mid-air.

We’ll break down how their super-flexible spine helps them turn, why height plays an important role, and what happens when they reach terminal velocity.

It’s not magic. It’s not luck.

It’s physics… with a furry twist.

A fun kids vs adults news quiz to test who’s been paying the most attention to the week in news.
