This is Newsround with me, Ricky. On the way: | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
The DNA testing that could reveal where your family lived a thousand | :00:09. | :00:11. | |
years ago. The mystery over what caused a huge | :00:12. | :00:13. | |
hole in this street in America. First, though, the UK could get its | :00:14. | :00:23. | |
own spaceport in the future after the Government back plans to pump | :00:24. | :00:27. | |
?40 billion into the project. They want to encourage more companies to | :00:28. | :00:31. | |
develop ways of getting into space by 2030. They also want to figure | :00:32. | :00:36. | |
out what needs to be done to have a port that would allow ordinary | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
people to go into orbit. Similar space tourism projects are already | :00:40. | :00:45. | |
being developed in America. And from spaceports to airports - | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
and a big computer glitch has meant thousands of people are facing long | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
waits this morning It's affected airports across the UK and means | :00:52. | :00:55. | |
means passport details have to be typed in manually. Officials don't | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
know what caused it and are still trying to fix the problem. The BBC's | :01:00. | :01:04. | |
Chris King's been at one of the airports affected. | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
Normally when you arrive at passport control, what happens is that they | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
take your passport and scan it and it verifies that you are who you say | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
you are and then they let you go on your way. But yesterday afternoon, | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
there was a computer glitch and it was one of those that couldn't be | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
solved by turning the computer off and on again. So when passengers got | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
off the plane at places like Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton, | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
Manchester, Gatwick and Stansted, they were greeted with large queues. | :01:37. | :01:43. | |
Next - how much of the housework do you do? Not a lot? Well, children in | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
Spain might not get away with lazing about at home in the future. The | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
country's government has said it thinks all kids should help with the | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
household chores. Could the idea catch on here? Here's Martin. | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
Cooking dinner, mopping the floor, doing the dishes, cleaning my | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
room... I'm not a fan of doing the housework. Oh, no. I prefer chilling | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
out in front of the telly with a nice cup of tea. But children in | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
Spain might not be able to relax so easily. The government has drafted | :02:11. | :02:17. | |
some guidelines on how kids should behave - and one of these says | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
everyone should help out with chores at home! But what do you guys think | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
about this? Meet Jasmine, Kayden, Caitlynn and mum Kelly. I asked them | :02:25. | :02:31. | |
about what they thought about it. I think it's a bit pathetic because, | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
like, kids are going to think that they can't have time with their | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
friends and everything. You've got school and you've got to do your | :02:42. | :02:49. | |
chores. People, yeah, might just sit down and I think the government is | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
right about it. It should be their mums telling them to grow up and get | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
the house work done. I do agree that they should help out but I think it | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
should be down to the parents to teach them that. What gets all the | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
chores started in the house? My mum says that if you don't do it, she | :03:10. | :03:22. | |
will be angry. I scream at Jasmine when she messes up the bed. If you | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
hate housework, then don't worry, guys - we've not heard of any plans | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
for such guidelines in the UK! But that's not saying that no-one else | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
will ask you to do some chores. Come on, Martin, let's get cleaning. We | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
want to know what you think about this on the website today. Here are | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
some of the comments so far: Now, imagine being able to trace | :03:43. | :04:21. | |
your family back to where they lived more than a thousand years ago. | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
Well, a group of scientists claim they can do just that using state of | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
the art DNA testing. They say they can pinpoint the exact village or | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
tribe where your ancestors used to live. They do it by comparing the | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
DNA sample - which carries info about who we are - to others from | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
around the world. Next to the mystery over how part of | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
a street collapsed It happened in Baltimore, America, when a pavement | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
and wall slid onto rail tracks below. Around a dozen parked cars | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
were sucked into the ground, but luckily no-one was injured. It's not | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
clear what caused it - but the area has been hit by heavy rain this | :04:53. | :04:54. | |
week. And finally, Springfield is set to | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
get a plastic make over for the 550th episode of The Simpsons. To | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
celebrate 25 years on air the whole | :05:02. | :05:02. |
