This is the first educational video that the E-Base team have created as part of the E-Base Live 365 expedition. The video complements the 2041 Journey to Antarctica Curriculum (see Lesson 3: Fantastic Feathers for further resources).
You can try the experiment at home or at school. Just collect different feathers and see how they react to having water sprayed or dropped on them. For down feathers ask an adult if you can have feathers from a pillow or duvet.
If you have any questions that you would like the team to answer whilst they are in Antarctica, please post them on the Message Wall. We can’t promise to answer all of them, but we’ll do our best!
That was so much fun to watch! Charlotte (aged 3) and Tom (aged 2) loved it too - we all learnt so much about the penguin … and thought the penguin sunbathing and covering the presenter in sand was hilarious … more, more, more please!!! Much better than Disney! Got more attention than Madacasgar!! Roll on the next update!!
