Solar System Podcast

I watched a podcast that gave some important and interesting facts about the solar system. It was not too overwhelming because the information was given in small parts. The solar system is huge, and there is a lot of information about it so it can be easy for a student to have cognitive overload when learning about it. In fact, science subjects in general can be overwhelming to learn about. In addition, although there was some music at the beginning of the podcast, there was no music during the fact presentation. Also, the pictures corresponding with the facts were shown seperately so that students can take in facts and illustration at the same time.
