Although MythBusters just concluded its run on Discovery Channel in early March, the network's sister station, Science Channel, is picking up where Discovery left off and re-launching the super cool science show...with a catch.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Science Channel will launch a new reality competition to find new hosts who'll take over for Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman.

The one myth Adam Savage didn't get to bust on Mythbusters.

Naturally inquisitive viewers with building skills are encouraged to send in videos to Science Channel for a chance to compete on the new series, which will begin its run with a total of 15 contestants. Once chosen, the 15 will compete in various challenges based on myths tested in the original series, as well as some new ones. Contestants will then be eliminated each week by a panel of judges consisting of people involved with MythBusters over the last 14 years. The final picks could be one person or several people.

Information on how to submit for entry can be found on Science Channel's website.
