Maddie's Do You Know?: Series 4: Radio Telescope and Maze

Radio Telescope and Maze

Maddie's Do You Know? - CBeebies - BBC

Maddie learns how a radio telescope collects radio waves and finds out how a maze is made.

Maddie visits an observatory to see how radio telescopes turn radio waves into pictures we can see. Afterwards, she heads to a giant maze and learns how wooden mazes are created.

Maddie visits an observatory to see how a really big radio telescope uses powerful computers to collect radio waves from space and turn them into a picture you can see. She uses a special time-lapse camera to see how the telescope moves up, down and around as it finds the radio waves.

Next, Maddie heads to a giant maze, where she starts at the entrance and tries to find the middle! She then heads to a craft workshop to see how a wooden maze is made using something called a maze blank. She uses her special slow-motion camera to see the wood shavings flying off as a special device called a CNC machine drills out the maze path onto a block of wood.
