Rhys Stephenson and Maddie Moate take over the Science Museum in London, with an out of this world forces Live Lesson for British Science Week!

Our very own Live Lesson astronaut Frankie is stuck out in space after completing a mission to the moon, and needs the help of 7-11 year-olds everywhere to come back down to Earth.

With help from a team of mission controllers, Rhys, Maddie and pupils watching need to use their knowledge of forces and explore gravity, friction and air resistance to design a landing module to bring our intrepid explorer safely back home.

Along the way, we hear from real-life astronauts including Dr Helen Sharman, the first British astronaut in space and American astronaut Bob Hines who has recently returned from a NASA space mission.
