Hello, welcome to Newsround, I'm Jenny. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:17 | |
First - to a discovery that's out of this world. | 0:00:17 | 0:00:19 | |
Literally. | 0:00:19 | 0:00:20 | |
Scientists have found a record SEVEN Earth-like | 0:00:20 | 0:00:21 | |
planets, orbiting one star. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:23 | |
It's hugely exciting for experts, because all of them could | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
have the right temperatures for water to exist - | 0:00:25 | 0:00:27 | |
something that's key to supporting life. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:29 | |
Here's Professor of Astrophysics, Tim O' Brien, to explain more. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:36 | |
This is a model of the solar system. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:37 | |
You can see the earth with the moon orbiting around us. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:44 | |
The most distant planet in our solar system is Neptune, | 0:00:44 | 0:00:46 | |
its 4.5 billion kilometres away. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
That's a huge distance but we've managed to scale it down | 0:00:48 | 0:00:50 | |
in this model to fit underneath this ceiling. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:52 | |
These new planets are orbiting a star and that's | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
40 light-years away. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
Such a vast distance we couldn't possibly fit it in this room. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:02 | |
In fact, it's not even in this building. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:06 | |
In fact, it's not even in Cheshire. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:12 | |
It would be as far away as Cardiff. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:16 | |
These exo-planets, planets outside our solar system, | 0:01:16 | 0:01:17 | |
orbiting their own star, or 400,000 billion kilometres away. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:19 | |
The reason scientists are so excited about the discovery of these planets | 0:01:19 | 0:01:26 | |
is that some of them could be earthlike, so rocky planets, | 0:01:26 | 0:01:30 | |
maybe even harbouring oceans on the surface. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:34 | |
That's the sort of place you might find life exists. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
We really are living in exciting times - | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
where finding hundreds, thousands of these other planets | 0:01:40 | 0:01:42 | |
in other solar systems and we may well at some point in the future | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
find life on one of these alien planets. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:49 | |
Thanks, Tim. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:50 | |
Now back on Earth - winds of nearly 90 miles | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
per hour have been recorded in Western Ireland, as Storm Doris | 0:01:53 | 0:01:55 | |
hits the British Isles. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
These pictures are from Blackpool this morning. | 0:01:57 | 0:01:58 | |
Heavy snow is expected in Scotland - and there are wind warnings | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
for parts of England and Wales. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
Here's weather forecaster Simon King with what you need to know. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:09 | |
Storm Doris has arrived on our shores. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
It's going to give us some pretty rough weather | 0:02:12 | 0:02:14 | |
over the next day or so. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:16 | |
This is the pressure chart. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
These white lines are isobars, quite close together, | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
that indicates really strong wind. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:23 | |
Doris is also going to give us snow. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
There is a warning out in force for parts of Scotland. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:28 | |
It could see 20-30 centimetres by the end of the day. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
Making snowmen and having snowball fights later here. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
But further south, really strong winds will develop. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
Really take care. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
It will move through North Wales, into parts of England, | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
the Midlands, towards East Anglia and the south-east. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:46 | |
These are really strong gusts, and have the potential | 0:02:46 | 0:02:50 | |
to blow over fences, bins, could cause damage. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
Definitely today, one to stay safe. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:59 | |
Thanks, Simon. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:00 | |
Massive congrats to Little Mix - the girls have won their | 0:03:00 | 0:03:03 | |
FIRST BRIT Award... | 0:03:03 | 0:03:08 | |
The group kicked off the biggest prizes in British music, | 0:03:08 | 0:03:11 | |
with this show-stopping performance of Shout-Out To My Ex - | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
which was later named Best Single. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
Thank you very much! | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
Honestly, we didn't know where to go because we didn't think | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
we were going to get it. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:22 | |
We were just sitting chin wagging. Cheers to our exes. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
For helping us do an amazing song! | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
This is for you, lads! | 0:03:27 | 0:03:28 | |
Five years together and still going strong, | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
these guys are my best friends! | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
Long may it continue, I love you guys so much! | 0:03:32 | 0:03:40 | |
And despite being on a break - there was an award for | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
the One Direction boys. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:44 | |
History took home Best British Video - | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
and Liam was there to collect the prize. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:48 | |
This is amazing, thank you so much. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:49 | |
I know I speak on behalf of the rest of the boys when I say we cannot | 0:03:49 | 0:03:53 | |
believe we are still winning these. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
And the sheer devotion that our fans have shown online | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
is absolutely amazing. | 0:03:57 | 0:03:58 | |
We've been taking time out to work on solo | 0:03:58 | 0:04:00 | |
material but One Direction is who we are and who | 0:04:00 | 0:04:03 | |
we always will be. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:06 | |
Well done, 1D. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:07 | |
But the moment that's got everyone talking, | 0:04:07 | 0:04:10 | |
is when one of Katy Perry's backing dancers went in the WRONG direction | 0:04:10 | 0:04:13 | |
and took a bit of a tumble. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
It happened right at the end of the star's performance | 0:04:15 | 0:04:17 | |
of her new single, Chained to the Rhythm. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:19 | |
Oh, dear! | 0:04:19 | 0:04:21 | |
For what else happened last night - go to Newsround online | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
for our BRIT Awards picture gallery! | 0:04:24 | 0:04:29 | |
Leicester city have kept alive their hopes of reaching the last | 0:04:29 | 0:04:31 | |
eight of the Champions League, after losing narrowly to Sevilla. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
Kasper Schmeichel saved a penalty early on, but couldn't | 0:04:34 | 0:04:37 | |
prevent his team going 2-0 by the hour mark. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
But Leicester rallied and Jamie Vardy made sure | 0:04:39 | 0:04:41 | |
they would go through to the second tie, with a crucial away goal. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:48 | |
That's all from me, Newsround's back right here at 8.15am. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:53 | |
Enjoy your breakfast! | 0:04:53 | 0:05:00 |
