Batteries power almost everything we use everyday, from your TV remote control to your toys. But when they run out of juice, the power of how they're thrown away is in our hands. So, Barry went to Scoil Naomh Pádraig to see how it's done right. Take a look!
A NASA capsule has landed in the Utah desert after a seven-year voyage, carrying to Earth the largest asteroid samples ever collected. Rob O'Sullivan from Blackrock Castle Observatory tells us more. He is also getting ready for Space Week 2023!
And, from the sky to below the ground. Paschal Sheehy tells us about some of the amazing things archaeologists in Cork are finding, including home of one of the first farmers to settle in the area, along with a bronze age burial ground, weapons, kitchen implements and pottery.
