Science On Top

The lizard that lays eggs and gives birth, solar power at night and training a robot dog with real dogs!

Mice have facial expressions, and a neutron star collision before the birth of our solar system.

InSight gets a helpful tap, amber gives clues towards Ideal Glass, and fish finger development!

A vaccine delivery system without the needles, and further evidence that Thea helped form our moon!

Softly hugging jellyfish, satellite refuelling, musical plants and detecting planets with aurorae.

A luxurious plan to save seahorses, precise methane measurements, 65,000 year old food and the environmental impact of dying.

We interview epidemiologist Gideon Meyerowitz-Katz about the novel coronavirus pandemic.

Mapping fruit fly brains, the oldest known meteorite on Earth, a Parkinson protein and Betelgeuse dimming!

Here's a little taste of the sort of thing to expect when Science on Top returns very soon - on hot days are you better off drinking hot or cold drinks?

A story of cute cephalopods, curious scientists and 3D glasses!

Our top stories from 2019. All the stories we thought particularly interesting, from black hole photos to rats driving tiny cars!

Koalas aren't extinct, impossible black hole exists and an old spacecraft bombarded by dust.

Humans in suspended animation, oxygen on Mars, water on Europa, alien gases, and snakes with legs!

Human ancestors walked upright much earlier than thought, a new health hazard for spaceflight, avoiding veggies because of genetics, and a possible solar energy storing molecule.

Rats driving cars, music and learning, cows and friendships, and very loud birds.
