And now it’s time for the Science Fact of the Week and it’s all about arachnids:
There is an average of 50,000 spiders per acre in green areas.
But don’t despair! Spiders are good for us:
They eat bugs that feast on our crops and without them it’s possible that there would be worldwide famine.
And get this, studies into the design and strength of spiders’ webs have led to producing super-strong artificial silk that scientists believe can be used in parachutes and bullet proof vests.
Have a terrific Thursday! Let’s make today ridiculously amazing!
