21/03/2016 Newsround

It's Monday afternoon and I'm Martin with your Newsround update.

First, in your lifetime, tablets, computers and phones have advanced

super quickly, and these gadgets now form a big part of our lives.

So how would you fare in a challenge to handle some really ancient tech?

Modern technology is amazing, with a world of information

But back when I was a kid, we didn't have smartphones

And all you could really use it for was to make phone calls

and text your mate, and even that used to take ages.

It's not just mobile phones that have transformed.

So how would you guys get on using all of this old tech?

I think this was to put a thing called floppy disks

Have you ever seen something like that before?

So if you bought this, how would you get it home?

star and question mark is up and down.

There's actually colour on the screen!

I see what it's doing now, it's moving left and right,

and you have to try to destroy them.

I wouldn't mind having one of these computers.

It would take me like a year to learn how to use it.

You guys are making me feel really old, because that was the computer I

used school! And if that's made you hungry

for more, you'll love what we've got We're going to split this class

into three different groups. Now, the first group is going to be

able to use technology The second group will only be

allowed to use technology for two hours a day over

the next three days. The final group won't be able to use

any technology whatsoever It says here that using tech before

bedtime can also affect your sleep. I haven't missed them as much

as I thought I would. So maybe we should take

a step back from it and... Some of you guys look really upset

without your tech! You can tune in for that

Newsround special - Is Tech Taking Over?

- tomorrow at 5.30. There's loads more of all things

tech on our website, including what you thought

of a tablet from the 1990s. Plus we want to know if you think

you're addicted to tech. Would you be able

to cope without it? Finally, some news from the cosmos -

Tim Peake's been battling space This new video shows Tim and fellow

astronaut Scott Kelly dodging Martians and shooting laser

beams in a virtual reality game. The technology could one day be

used to allow astronauts on the International Space Station

and mission control back down on Earth to work on tasks together

using augmented reality. Space agency Nasa say no astronauts

or aliens were harmed in the making You can head online for the rest of

today's stories. We will see you tomorrow. Goodbye.
