Ricky here with your latest Newsround. | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
Coming up this Wednesday afternoon: What happens | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
when drones go underwater, and get your questions | :00:12. | :00:12. | |
He's the first British man to live in space and made a very brave | :00:13. | :00:28. | |
journey back to Earth a few weeks ago, but how did Tim Peake do | :00:29. | :00:32. | |
when he was given quick-fire questions from kids | :00:33. | :00:34. | |
Is it true you can see the great Wall of China from space? Through a | :00:35. | :00:48. | |
camera lens, but not through the naked eye. Did you get to vote in | :00:49. | :00:58. | |
the EU referendum? Yes. Could you see all the planets orbiting the sun | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
when you are in the International Space Station? Not all of them with | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
the naked eye, but Jupiter, Saturn, Venus, and Mars, really stand out. | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
Do you need a passport to go into space? No. Can you have a bath or a | :01:13. | :01:22. | |
shower in space? A wet flannel. A bit like camping. What is it like | :01:23. | :01:28. | |
being away from your family? It is tough but we have great | :01:29. | :01:30. | |
communications from the space station. | :01:31. | :01:31. | |
He could be in for a win at an award ceremony just for cats, | :01:32. | :01:38. | |
after he helped his owner Harri through a tough time. | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
You might have heard of the brave dogs that helped rescue people in | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
disasters of fires. Or of the horses who helped the police are now in | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
control. But watch out, there is a new era in town. Meet Houdini. He | :01:54. | :01:58. | |
might look back and ordinary cat but to Harry he is a lot more than that. | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
He helps me on a day-to-day basis because when I get home he normally | :02:05. | :02:12. | |
comes to me and helped me. He is one of 15 finalists in a competition to | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
find the cat of the year. He was nominated for the award because he | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
has helped Harry get through some toff times. Houdini makes me feel | :02:21. | :02:29. | |
happy and safe. Also in the running for the award is this cat, who | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
helped Jessica Cope with her autism, and another who helped Lily deal | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
with her brother's illness. The winner is announced in August, | :02:42. | :02:44. | |
gridlock to all the cats taking part, and their human owners. | :02:45. | :02:46. | |
Next up, scientists in the US working with drones. | :02:47. | :02:48. | |
But they're not using them to fly high up into the air. | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
This team are sending drones deep underwater. | :02:52. | :03:01. | |
These days drones can be used in loads of different ways. They can | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
detect fires, help farmers inspect their crops, they can be used in | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
search and rescue operations, and for a bit of fun too. Now they can | :03:13. | :03:20. | |
even explore the deep sea. A team from the US have developed this | :03:21. | :03:27. | |
drone which has been specially modified to search for objects 100 | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
metres under the surface of the sea. Once it has been lowered into the | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
water a team back on dry land can direct it back to wherever they | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
wanted to go. We don't know what will happen, this is brand-new | :03:41. | :03:46. | |
equipment we are testing out. A camera on-board films everything. | :03:47. | :03:53. | |
Today these scientists are using it to get a tour of an old steamship | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
which sunk in this in Nevada lake in the US. Experts say they are a site | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
about the technology because it does not cost a lot of money, just over | :04:05. | :04:11. | |
?1000. Which is much cheaper than sending a really expensive submarine | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
underwater to capture images that have not been seen for years. | :04:16. | :04:17. | |
Tomorrow morning, I'll be catching up with Ruby Barnhill, | :04:18. | :04:19. | |
the 11-year-old girl who stars as Sophie in the BFG movie. | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
She'll be live on Newsround and answering your questions. | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
So get online and get them in right now. | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
Whilst you're there check out this toilet themed restaurant that's | :04:30. | :04:31. | |
opened up and find about the world's hottest chilli heading | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
Finally lets finish up on a record for the world's biggest | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
Hundreds got together at an ancient site in Mexico wearing costumes | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
Well we're out of time but Newsround's back | :04:45. | :04:52. | |
