The Zula Patrol
Matter, Matter Everywhere/Family Feud (#113)
MATTER, MATTER EVERYWHERE: Inside a hollow meteorite, the ZPers find the treasure map of Long John Jupiter, notorious rhyming Space Pirate. Following the clues, they learn all about matter, and find a surprising treasure.
FAMILY FEUD: Earth's water has disappeared! Part one of the molecular mystery is soon solved when Multo discovers that all of Earth's water molecules have separated into their individual atoms of Hydrogen and Oxygen. When Bula and Zeeter shrink to atom-size they find the reason for the separation is a family feud. It's up to the Zula Patrol to get the feuding atoms together as molecules -- and get Earth back together -- before it's too late. [28 minutes]
