Through the Black Hole

Podcast episode plan

Background information
Theres a black hole coming nearer and nearer to Earth every week. The world works together to send their best members of their
government that are experienced astronauts. Jennifer Davidson, the most powerful owner of the most powerful government, hired Scarlett
Foxx to join her on her mission. Scarlett Foxx is the best and most favourite scientist / doctor in the world. Scarlett Fox created an android
called Zoe1ox. Jennifer also hired two astronauts called Felix and Matt.

Science words
Real Science Facts
- Comets are tiny icy solar system bodies flying in space.
- If two black holes merge together, it could create a really strong more deadly supermassive black hole,
or it could explode into a bunch of gravitational waves.
- IO is a volcanic planet that have volcanos that erupt very frequently.
- Neptune has 14 moons
- Pluto

Made-up science words

- Quasar spectrum- A very bright light that can blind you if you stare at it for too long.
- Supernova eclipse- Eclipse that blocks out the sun and everything freezes for a few seconds or minutes.
- Terrestrial dust- Its when unknown life like dust, comes from the atmosphere and interferes with different
things in space, like the black hole and can it multiply. It changes cycles of things and wont stop. It looks like the northern
lights but can change color easily and fades out at times, also moves around more human like.

- Inter-sella transit- A hologram that makes a visual of a person or a thing.

- Elliptical velocity- A dangerously fast speed force that could teleport objects.

Story mountain plan

Unfortunately, Matt and Felix sucked into
the black hole because their rope was
destroyed. Zoe1ox and Scarlett try and to
communicate with Matt and Felix, who are
stuck in the black hole. Matt and Felix are
attacked by animals and the black hole is
starting to become bigger and then they
only have a certain amount of time to get
out.

Animals - Dinosaurs or extinct

animals
Felix teleports back to the ship since
Scarlett and Zoe teleported him. Matt
died because a dino stepped on him .
Two black holes collide and send an
incredible amount of gravitational waves
throughout space. Those gravitational
waves send the Earth farther away from
the exploded black holes. The ship goes
back to Earth after that.

They fly to the black hole, while they

experience some technical difficulties
along the way. They arrive at the
black hole. To physically inspect the
black hole, they have to attach a rope
to themselves.

The government sends out her best

colleagues to go on a mission to
inspect the black hole that is slowly
getting closer and closer to Earth.

Zoe1ox, Felix and Scarlett travel

in the ship back to Earth to tell
Jennifer about what happened
while they were inspecting the
black hole.

Intro
Narrator: Theres a black hole coming nearer and nearer to Earth every week. The world works together to send their best members of their
government that are experienced astronauts. Jennifer Davidson, the owner of the most powerful government, hires Scarlett Foxx along with the
amazing android called Zoe1ox to join her on her dangerous mission. Interestingly, Scarlett Foxx is the best scientist in the world and Zoe1ox is
the first android that Scarlett made. Jennifer also hired two skilled astronauts called Felix and Matt to accompany them on board the Cosmic
Nexus.

Scene 1 - In the Space Ship

Zoe: (looking out of the window) Neptune just passed by the window, I assume well reach the black hole within 45 minutes.
Matt: Hey, why are there 14 really small pieces of rock floating around Neptune?
Scarlett: Those tiny 14 pieces of rock are actually Neptunes moons. Just to let you know, Im gonna contact Jennifer using the inter-sella transit
now. And if youre wondering what that means, its a hologram that can make a person or an object visual.
Scarlett presses some buttons and they hear Jennifers voice.
Jennifer: Hello, fellow astronauts.
Scarlett: Were going to reach the black hole in about 45 minutes, at least thats what Zoe predicted.
Jennifer: Okay, but can you please turn on that hologram equipment you were talking about?
Scarlett: Sure, just wait a second.
Felix walks into the cockpit. (door opens)
Felix: What are you guys talking about?
Zoe: Me and Scarlett are just fixing some of the mechanical appliances. (pushes some buttons and makes some beeping noises)

Script
Scarlett: Whats with the helmet?
Jennifer: Yeah. What are you doing? Honestly, I mean it. You look weird holding a helmet for no reason.
Felix: (sits down onto a chair and grabs a hankie) Just polishing my helmet before we go investigate the black hole.
Zoe1ox: Why?
Felix: I dont want to be in space with a dirty astronaut helmet.
Scarlett: Okay. Anyways, back to the mission.
Jennifer: Okay. So youre mission is to try and get as close to the black hole as possible, to investigate it without getting sucked in.
Everyone: Ok.
Zoe: Lets do this.
Jennifer: Earth is starting to get extremely hot, (phew), you guys really do have to reach the black hole faster, before its too late.
Zoe: The only way to get there would be to use the elliptical velocity.
Felix and Matt: What is the elliptical velocity?
Scarlett: Elliptical velocity is a dangerously fast speed force that can teleport objects or people that are in a rocket.
(Scarlett presses buttons and everyone hears metal clashing metal)
Zoe: Everyone ready?
Everyone: Yeah! Lets go!
(loud beaming sound)

Scene 2 - Near Black Hole
Jennifer: Alright.
Matt: I think were finally here!
Felix: (concerned) Did anyone get hurt?
Everyone: Were fine.
Zoe: (surprised) I see the black hole! Its enormous!
Scarlett: According to my research, black holes are extremely dangerous and deadly, but this one is even more dangerous, since its so big.
Jennifer: I trust you astronauts not to get sucked in.
Felix: Me and Matt will try our best to not get hurt, right Matt.
Matt: Well try, but you know that skilled astronauts will not make a mistake.
Scarlett: Guys, we have to hurry with this mission cause I see a supernova eclipse coming. And if that happens then that could freeze everything
and for us that wont be good.

Scene 3 - Preparing to go into The Black Hole

Zoe: Here is your rope, get ready and attach this rope to your suit. Ill be waiting for you next to the exit.
(footsteps)
Felix: Wheres our suit?
Matt: Im pretty sure its here.
Zoe: Here.

Script
Felix: Its super heavy!
Zoe: Well, if you were 32kg on earth, and youd be on Pluto youd be 2.5kg!
Felix: I want to go to Pluto!
Matt: Anyways, well go change, be back in a sec.
Narrator: A few minutes later.
Jennifer: Matt, Felix, are you guys done yet?
Felix: Yeah, just give us a few more seconds.
Jennifer: Make sure that you wear the earpiece, so we can communicate and please, hurry up cause I have a call with the government's.(door
opens)
Zoe: Ill first push Matt, then Felix in 3..2..1.
Felix & Matt: AHHHHHHH!
(seconds of silence and door closes)

Scene 4 - In The Black Hole

Felix: Guys, can you loosen the rope a bit?
Zoe: (crackling earpiece) Felix we cant joke around, Ill only loosen it a bit.
Scarlett: (crackling earpiece) Guys, can you hear me? This is Scarlett speaking. I can see a small dot of a second black hole, so I suggest that
you hurry up with this investigating! And from my research, if two black holes merge it could create a supermassive black hole or could explode
and send an unimaginable amount of gravitational waves throughout the galaxy.

Script
Zoe: Yeah, and if the Terrestrial Dust approaches the black hole it will multiply rapidly and that could create an even more massive black hole!
Matt: What do you think we should do?
Scarlett: Try and get as close to the black hole and get me a sample of what its made of, and if that works out, Ill be able to find a way to
teleport it at elliptical velocity, away from coming any closer to Earth then it is now.
Felix: Got it.
Matt: Im floating away, I cant use my thrusters to move away from the black hole!
Felix: Im coming Matt, hang in there, buddy.
Scarlett: Felix! Dont go too near Matt, youll get sucked in too!
Zoe: Ill try to pull the rope back!
Matt: (quieter and quieter) Help me!
Scarlett: PULL IT!
Zoe: Its not working Scarlett!
Jennifer: (crackling) Hello, hello? NO ONE stare at the Quasar Spectrum, Itll blind you, hello??
(the crew members panic and shout and scream slightly while and Matts voice gets quieter and quieter)
Matt: I cant I cant see where Im going Felix.. whats that bright light. Can you guys hear me?

(complete silence)
