Love this podcast

I’m quite young but I have 2 questions if you went out in space with no suit what would happen to you and also if the universe is expanding what is it expanding into
I asked that question at school and I was sent to reception because I was spiralling in class

Why wouldn’t you rate this podcast 5 stars?

I honestly have fallen asleep with a great sleep schedule since starting to have this podcast whilst I’m sleeping it may not be relaxing at times but it sure is interesting and makes my mind curious and tired (in a good way)
