In this episode we found out IF the latest discovery on Mars could mean there’s life on the Red Planet! Staying in outer space, a special titanium toilet is heading to the International Space Station to help astronauts well, you know, do their business. Also, India opens the Atal Tunnel – the longest and highest highway tunnel in the world.

FAB FACT NUMBER 3: Titanium is a super duper strong but also lightweight metal, which is noncorrosive, meaning, it doesn’t rust, making it perfect to use in fixtures use in aerospace.

FAB FACT NUMBER 4: The recently opened Atal Tunnel… just under the Rohtang Pass in the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh, is now the world’s highest and longest highway tunnel.
