Good afternoon - Ricky here with your Saturday

:00:00.:00:00.

First up, one of sport's greatest superstars

:00:00.:00:26.

Muhammed Ali has died - he was 74.

:00:27.:00:29.

The boxer was famous around the world, but not

:00:30.:00:32.

We've been taking a look back at his life.

:00:33.:00:38.

I want everyone out there to know this, I am the greatest.

:00:39.:00:42.

Muhammad Ali, the world's most famous boxer.

:00:43.:00:45.

Born with a different name, Cassius Clay,

:00:46.:00:49.

He first achieved fame when he won gold

:00:50.:00:56.

He was famous for the way he talked and the things he said.

:00:57.:01:03.

He won his first world heavyweight title at the

:01:04.:01:11.

But Muhammad Ali was more than just a boxer.

:01:12.:01:17.

He campaigned for civil rights at a

:01:18.:01:19.

time when black people in America were treated differently.

:01:20.:01:23.

The boxer converted to Islam and changed

:01:24.:01:26.

He spoke out about racism and the world

:01:27.:01:30.

One of his most famous fight was nicknamed the Rumble in

:01:31.:01:35.

It took place in 1974 against George Foreman.

:01:36.:01:42.

If you think that, wait until I get George Foreman.

:01:43.:01:46.

He is ugly and I am the true champion.

:01:47.:01:50.

He was so tired he just fell on the ropes.

:01:51.:02:01.

I said, man, this is the

:02:02.:02:03.

It made life difficult for the boxer but he

:02:04.:02:16.

In 1999, Muhammad Ali won the BBC Sports Personality

:02:17.:02:21.

He got more votes than the rest of the contenders put

:02:22.:02:28.

He is known all over the world and will

:02:29.:02:38.

be remembered for being the greatest.

:02:39.:02:41.

Next, is there life beyond our planet?

:02:42.:02:48.

That's what scientists are aiming to find out with the Square

:02:49.:02:51.

It's a huge radio telescope which will be able to search further

:02:52.:02:57.

Aliens. Are they really out there? If so, are we ever going to find

:02:58.:03:30.

them? The universe is vast. The solar system is just one of the

:03:31.:03:36.

solar systems around the sun which is one star amongst millions of

:03:37.:03:39.

stars in the galaxy and our galaxy is one among the millions of

:03:40.:03:43.

galaxies in the universe, so why not? Maybe there is light somewhere

:03:44.:03:46.

in another solar system in another galaxy. That's what scientists are

:03:47.:03:52.

trying to find out with the help of these. This is the Square Kilometre

:03:53.:03:58.

Array project. When it is finished, it will be the world most powerful

:03:59.:04:02.

audio telescope, so sensitive that it will be able to detect a signal

:04:03.:04:07.

from a planet that is tens of light years away. These telescopes are

:04:08.:04:11.

listening for intelligent life and that is why they have decided to

:04:12.:04:15.

build them here. What makes this place in South Africa perfect is

:04:16.:04:20.

that there are no radio waves around to mess up the signal. No

:04:21.:04:25.

microwaves, no mobile phones. I have had to turn mine. Every day these

:04:26.:04:29.

dishes are collecting massive amounts of data. That will

:04:30.:04:34.

eventually be processed by a supercomputer in the UK. And experts

:04:35.:04:42.

will look for any signs of life. How do you go about looking for alien

:04:43.:04:46.

signals? You got bigger telescopes like that and they can listen in the

:04:47.:04:51.

universe and listen for radio signals from other planets where we

:04:52.:04:54.

hope they also have radio signals and maybe we can detect some of

:04:55.:04:58.

these signals. How would we know that aliens have tried to contact

:04:59.:05:02.

us? We are looking for intelligent signals, not from nature but made by

:05:03.:05:07.

intelligent creatures. Will we ever be able to find an Indian? Certainly

:05:08.:05:13.

hope so. I hope to find them once in my lifetime but it could take a long

:05:14.:05:18.

time and also it can take long to communicate with them because the

:05:19.:05:22.

signals take maybe years to go to the civilisation and also years to

:05:23.:05:26.

come back so one simple question and answer could take 40 years. Of

:05:27.:05:33.

course there is no guarantee that other civilisations exist beyond our

:05:34.:05:36.

world but if they do, it might not be long before Square Kilometre

:05:37.:05:38.

Array finds them. Last up, Andy Murray

:05:39.:05:41.

is through to the final He beat Stan Wawrinka

:05:42.:05:43.

in three sets and faces If he wins he'll be

:05:44.:05:46.

the first British man to win We're back right here just

:05:47.:05:51.

before 2 - see you then.
