Hi, I'm Martin with your final Newsround update of the day.

:00:10.:00:12.

First, the biggest news of the weekend -

:00:13.:00:15.

British Astronaut Tim Peake is home on planet Earth.

:00:16.:00:18.

Here's the story of his journey back from space.

:00:19.:00:23.

A final goodbye for Major Tim Peake as he waves farewell to the ISS,

:00:24.:00:26.

Along with two crewmates, he boarded the Soyuz space capsule

:00:27.:00:33.

which would transport him back to planet Earth.

:00:34.:00:35.

The capsule travelled up to four times the speed of sound

:00:36.:00:51.

As the spacecraft neared the Earth, these helicopter pictures

:00:52.:00:54.

Although it was slowed by a parachute and reverse boosters

:00:55.:00:57.

to cushion its landing, a bumpy finish was guaranteed.

:00:58.:01:00.

Landing safely in the open space of Kazakhstan in Asia.

:01:01.:01:03.

After six months of weightlessness, the feeling of gravity

:01:04.:01:06.

So a special team was on hand to help Tim out of the capsule.

:01:07.:01:10.

It's great to be back. It has been a fantastic journey.

:01:11.:01:15.

Next, a bit of cooling down after the sweltering heat

:01:16.:01:19.

of the journey and a phone call home to say he had got back safely.

:01:20.:01:23.

It may take a few days before I feel warm again.

:01:24.:01:34.

I'm feeling a lot of dizziness and vertigo at the moment.

:01:35.:01:38.

Which is to be expected, that is normal after

:01:39.:01:42.

And those first few moments on the steppes of Kazakhstan,

:01:43.:01:45.

the smell and the breeze really hit me very hard and it was great

:01:46.:01:49.

to be back on Earth, it really was.

This dude's name is Harrison and he's just collected a medal

:01:53.:01:55.

for completing a really, really tough challenge

:01:56.:01:56.

Harrison was born with a rare disability which

:01:57.:02:00.

So, along with his amazing dad Alex, he decided to do something

:02:01.:02:04.

special to try and help other people living with the condition.

:02:05.:02:08.

The boys started their challenge with a 2.4 mile swim

:02:09.:02:11.

Next Harrison hopped into a trailer and Superdad cycled 112 miles.

:02:12.:02:20.

And to finish things off, they added a front wheel

:02:21.:02:23.

to the trailer and Alex pushed Harrison in it

:02:24.:02:26.

for a full marathon distance of 26 miles.

:02:27.:02:29.

So how do they feel about what they did?

:02:30.:02:35.

It was a tough day! But it was 15 and a half hours that you don't get
