Hello, I'm Leah. He's Joe. It's Wednesday 5th December. It's just

:00:05.:00:09.

gone 5pm. Here's what we've got on today's Newsround.

:00:09.:00:13.

Find out why I'm looking so scared. NASA unveils its next mission to

:00:13.:00:23.
:00:23.:00:26.

Mars. And the clock is ticking for someone to come forward and claim

:00:26.:00:36.
:00:36.:00:44.

almost �64 million on a lottery. But first, Australian radio

:00:44.:00:47.

presenters have apologised for making a prank call to the hospital

:00:47.:00:51.

where the Duchess of Cambridge is staying. They tricked hospital

:00:51.:00:54.

staff looking after pregnant Kate that they were the Queen and Prince

:00:54.:01:01.

Philip, so nurses talked about how Kate was doing.

:01:01.:01:09.

Good morning. Could I please speak to Kate, please? My granddaughter.

:01:09.:01:16.

Just hold on. Thank you. Anyone in hospital is entitled to have their

:01:16.:01:22.

privacy respected. The hospital have also said sorry for what

:01:22.:01:24.

happened for. Next to the Olympic Stadium - the

:01:24.:01:28.

venue for so many golden memories for Team GB this summer. After

:01:28.:01:30.

years of arguments and discussion, footie team West Ham United have

:01:30.:01:33.

finally been named as the number one choice to make the stadium

:01:33.:01:37.

their new home. But as I've been finding out, getting to this point

:01:37.:01:40.

has been more of a marathon than a sprint.

:01:40.:01:43.

It still gives you goosebumps. An unbelievable summer of sporting

:01:43.:01:47.

achievements in a stadium that brought us so many golden moments.

:01:47.:01:53.

But deciding the stadium's future hasn't been so glorious. After

:01:53.:01:56.

years of legal arguments, today it was announced that West Ham United

:01:56.:01:59.

football club have been made number one choice to take over the Olympic

:01:59.:02:01.

Stadium, beating off competition from Leyton Orient, a football

:02:01.:02:11.
:02:11.:02:14.

business university and a group linked to Formula One. The deal is

:02:14.:02:19.

far from over. The original legacy plans didn't

:02:19.:02:24.

include Premier League football. So now it's going to cost up to �150

:02:24.:02:27.

million to convert it with things like retractable seats and

:02:27.:02:30.

extending the roof. And West Ham have been told they must share any

:02:30.:02:34.

profits if they sell the Stadium. The stadium will still host the

:02:34.:02:38.

2017 World Athletics Championships. But athletes have told Newsround

:02:38.:02:44.

their big concern is the track. they can look after the track and

:02:44.:02:51.

keep it nice and fresh, then I think it will work. West Ham

:02:51.:02:55.

getting the stadium could be for the best. It gives struck that

:02:55.:03:04.

something to be proud of. -- Stratford for.

:03:04.:03:07.

How have previous Olympic Stadiums fared? The Bird's Nest Stadium used

:03:07.:03:10.

for the 2008 Beijing games is a major tourist attraction, and it

:03:10.:03:12.

has even been used as a snow theme park!

:03:12.:03:15.

The Athens Olympic Stadium from 2004 is now used for pop concerts

:03:15.:03:19.

and football games. It will be at least three years until the it is

:03:19.:03:22.

fully open again but legacy bosses are already exploring whether it

:03:22.:03:27.

could reopen as early as next summer for some special events.

:03:27.:03:31.

The Chancellor has been making his Autumn Statement, giving the

:03:31.:03:37.

country some pretty grim news about the economy. The country has been

:03:37.:03:41.

borrowing more money than the government thinks we can afford.

:03:41.:03:46.

George Osborne said the job is taking more time than expected.

:03:46.:03:52.

There are no quick fixes to these problems. But they want to know

:03:52.:03:59.

what that we are making progress and the message for today's Autumn

:03:59.:04:04.

Statement is that we are making progress. It is a hard road by it

:04:04.:04:08.

we are getting there. To try to make things a bit easier,

:04:08.:04:11.

he has scrapped his plan to increase taxes on fuel, which might

:04:11.:04:14.

please your parents if they drive you to school. But his opponents

:04:14.:04:18.

say he is making things worse and should be spending more money to

:04:18.:04:22.

get the economy going again. Next, to Mars. And after the

:04:22.:04:24.

success of the Curiosity Rover, NASA have announced they are

:04:24.:04:30.

sending another robot to Mars. The US space agency is going to send

:04:30.:04:33.

out a new rover in 2020 based on Curiosity, which landed on the Red

:04:33.:04:37.

Planet in August. It's hoped this one will be able to pick up rocks

:04:37.:04:41.

and bring them all the way back to Earth paving the way for a manned

:04:41.:04:47.

mission in 2030. Next, what could �64 million pounds

:04:47.:04:50.

get you, Joe? Two Wayne Rooneys? Or 213,000 games consoles? A lot then.

:04:50.:04:54.

And the race is on to find the owner of a winning Lottery ticket

:04:54.:04:58.

worth almost �64 million. They have only got until 11pm tonight to

:04:58.:05:01.

claim the money and people living where the ticket was bought are

:05:01.:05:11.
:05:11.:05:20.

The hunt for the missing ticket. Who will fight and it? -- find it?

:05:20.:05:27.

And it's not just me searching for it. Everybody has been looking for

:05:27.:05:31.

it. People living where the ticket was bought in Stevenage and Hitchin

:05:31.:05:34.

in Hertfordshire are trying their hardest to find it too. We know

:05:34.:05:37.

that the �2 ticket was bought on the 8th of June in the Euromillions

:05:37.:05:41.

draw and is worth almost �64 million. Everybody is searching for

:05:41.:05:45.

it, in their cars, in their houses, Upstairs, downstairs, everywhere

:05:45.:05:53.

they can possibly be an goth. -- possibly think of. Whoever has got

:05:53.:05:56.

the winning ticket has until 11pm tonight to come forward to claim

:05:56.:05:59.

their money. If no one does, then the prize money goes towards

:05:59.:06:03.

projects and charities backed by the National Lottery. It would be

:06:03.:06:06.

the biggest Lottery win that's gone unclaimed. A ticket worth �9

:06:06.:06:10.

million pounds went unclaimed back in 2005. If someone finds the

:06:10.:06:12.

winning ticket, they'll need to prove exactly where and when they

:06:12.:06:17.

bought it and read out the barcode number on the ticket. More than

:06:17.:06:19.

3,000 people have become millionaires since the Lottery

:06:19.:06:22.

began, and the National Lottery say the person who bought the ticket

:06:22.:06:25.

could be anywhere. They want people to check their tickets before time

:06:25.:06:34.

runs out. But hang on! I'm from Hertfordshire. Dad, have you

:06:34.:06:44.
:06:44.:06:45.

checked the drawers? Where's Mum? Has he found it? Take a look at

:06:45.:06:55.
:06:55.:06:59.

this. That was a double back-flip on a motorbike. The first person to

:06:59.:07:04.

pull this off is 11 times X-Games champion Travis Pastrana.

:07:04.:07:09.

Don't try this at home. This is an extreme sports event complete with

:07:10.:07:15.

Phillips, tricks, thrills and spills, and all of this started in

:07:15.:07:25.
:07:25.:07:28.

someone's back garden! Then again, it wasn't just anyone's back garden.

:07:28.:07:34.

It was a garden that belonged to 11 times X-Games champion Travis

:07:34.:07:42.

Pastrana. Eventually we had a huge crew of 100 guys that came to my

:07:42.:07:46.

garden and were considered as part of the circuit. Everybody is doing

:07:46.:07:51.

different things and now we have fun. At the age of 14, he became

:07:51.:07:56.

world freestyle champion and in 2006 he became the first person to

:07:56.:08:00.

land a double back-flip on a motorbike. It is now one of the

:08:00.:08:07.

main stance of the show, which has come to the UK for the first time.

:08:07.:08:12.

Travis is even mates with another extremely extreme guy. Felix

:08:12.:08:18.

Baumgartner is someone I look up to. He was such a great base jumper and

:08:18.:08:23.

just an awesome athlete and entrepreneur. At the moment, Travis

:08:23.:08:28.

is injured so there is an opening in the team for one more daredevils.

:08:28.:08:35.

The only problem is, you have to have guts. And not scream like a

:08:35.:08:41.

baby. SCREAMING. That was harder than it looks!

:08:41.:08:44.

Now, showing more control than I was, an actual dog driving an

:08:44.:08:47.

actual car. The motoring mutts are taking the wheel in New Zealand to

:08:47.:08:50.
