Episode notes

A mission to Mars planned between the European Space Agency and Russian Space Agency has been suspended. A British built rover was due to be blasted into space this year, but the ESA said cooperation with Russia is ‘impossible’ because of the invasion of Ukraine.

Plus, divers are heading to the Titanic shipwreck to collect environmental DNA from the site, and find out what lives there. Marine biologists are hoping to learn about the biodiversity of the wreck, and how the ship has impacted the life around it.
