About this listen

Season 2 launches into space!

In this episode, Woofie meets the smallest and fastest planet in our solar system — Mercury.

It zips around the Sun in just 88 days, has years that are shorter than its days, and swings between scorching hot and freezing cold like a cosmic rollercoaster.

Together we discover:
• Why Mercury moves so incredibly fast
• What it would feel like to stand on its rocky surface
• Why it has so many craters
• And how a year can be shorter than a day

Plus — a lightning round with the most high-energy planet of them all.

Perfect for curious kids who love space, science, and big questions.
