It makes boating much more pleasant for the user, as well as a tremendous environmental impact effect. If you have driven an electrical or hybrid car, if you are lucky enough to have sat in a Tesla, the experience is so much better than a petrol engine, and this is the same. So just like electric vehicles are starting to come into people's consciousness as a way to mitigate climate change and also have an amazing experience. Petrol or internal combustion engines are polluting, they are noisy, they are not the future. The engines we make here from components that are all over the world, but the lithium-ion batteries, and these are all 96 volt, which is not a common voltage, and so it's very specialised to get the battery management systems. Lynelle Johnson: We get them custom-made in China. Robyn Williams: Where do you get the batteries from?

It has a 15-kilowatt engine on the back, it's in a 30-horsepower frame, and we are converting that to forward controls, and we've built a battery box to contain the lithium-ion portable batteries that go in. Robyn Williams: And when did that happen? Lynelle Johnson: That is actually a Pride Cheetah, it's an older boat, about 14 feet, and it has been converted to be the first electric runabout in Australia. The outboard motor industry worldwide is worth about $9 billion a year now, and soon may be up to $12 billion. They are both making the first bigger electric boats. Ron Kelly over there is 77, and I haven't asked Lynelle Johnson her age, but she used to be in the ABC and worked with Ray Martin.

Today's Science Show is about nature all around you, and your neighbours, young and old, doing remarkable things.ДЇirst stop here in Kiama, New South Wales, in a shed full of boats. Robyn Williams: Owen and Mia are at primary school in Melbourne, and they are both just ten. And then we took them back into the science room and we put them in small dishes and then we put them in a dark box. Owen Loxton: We went behind the science room and we found slime moulds were on the leaves and bark, and we found ones we haven't found at school yet. So when they're babies they look like creepy-crawlies, and then they start changing into different shapes. Mia O'Brien: I like slime moulds because they don't always look the same, they change.

Robyn Williams: Let me introduce you to a couple of young folk I confidently expect to be scientific stars in the near future.
