Good morning, I'm Ricky and this is your Newsround

0:00:040:00:07

on Monday 23rd May. Coming up this morning -

0:00:070:00:11

22 swimming medals for team GB at the Euro Championships.

0:00:110:00:19

# I know that I let you down

0:00:190:00:20

# Is it too late to say I'm sorry now?

0:00:220:00:24

And the star performances at the Billboard awards.

0:00:240:00:27

Next, a museum is opening an inflatable version of itself,

0:00:330:00:36

so more children can experience a taste of history and

0:00:360:00:39

the wonders of the world.

0:00:390:00:42

The museum only takes a couple of minutes to inflate,

0:00:420:00:46

This is not a bouncy castle, it is a museum

0:00:480:00:52

and it is about to start a tour of schools all over

0:00:520:00:55

Greater Manchester.

0:00:550:00:57

Today, it is being set up in a school hall in Longsight.

0:00:570:01:01

Some of the kids in this school have never even been to a museum before

0:01:010:01:04

so, today is a really special day. Let's get them in.

0:01:040:01:07

Come on, guys, in you come.

0:01:070:01:12

The theme of this inflatable museum is ancient Egypt and the children

0:01:210:01:25

are allowed to get really close to some of the artefacts on display.

0:01:250:01:28

Like these, how cool are they?

0:01:280:01:32

I've never been to a museum.

0:01:320:01:35

It looks like a real building but it is like, cushiony.

0:01:350:01:38

It is really cool because we are the first people to ever

0:01:380:01:41

have it in our hall.

0:01:410:01:43

It's really big and I really like it.

0:01:430:01:45

They all come from ancient Egypt.

0:01:450:01:48

And although most museums are free, some of these kids told me

0:01:480:01:51

it is getting there which costs quite a lot of money.

0:01:510:01:54

You have a lot of people in your family and you don't have

0:01:540:01:57

enough money to get the tickets for everyone.

0:01:570:02:00

Sometimes, you might see a museum and it looks very scary

0:02:000:02:04

because it is a big, posh building and you might feel

0:02:040:02:07

that is not somewhere I want to go, that is not somewhere I belong.

0:02:070:02:11

And that seems to be a bit of an issue, that people aren't

0:02:110:02:14

confident to just cross the boundaries and go

0:02:140:02:16

into these wonderful places.

0:02:160:02:20

In terms of getting this inflated, that is about five minutes actually

0:02:200:02:23

so once you have got it rolled out, once you have got the fans

0:02:230:02:26

in and the fans on, it is about five minutes.

0:02:260:02:29

So it is a pretty spectacular sight.

0:02:290:02:32

After the exhibit is over, it is time to let the air out,

0:02:320:02:35

until another school gets to wander inside this inflatable museum.

0:02:350:02:39

A plane powered solely by energy from the sun has

0:02:400:02:43

landed in Ohio in the US.

0:02:430:02:46

It touched down in the home town of The Wright Brothers -

0:02:460:02:50

who were two Americans that built the first successful aeroplane

0:02:500:02:53

more than 100 years ago.

0:02:530:02:56

The pilots on board the Solar Impulse 2 are hoping

0:02:560:02:58

they can fly around the globe without a drop of fuel.

0:02:580:03:02

Adele and The Weekend were the big winners

0:03:020:03:05

at the Billboard Music Awards last night.

0:03:050:03:07

She took home the award for Top Artist, beating Justin Bieber.

0:03:070:03:10

She also won an award for her album 25.

0:03:100:03:13

Adele wasn't there to collect her awards,

0:03:130:03:16

Team GB swimmers have won an impressive 22 medals

0:03:180:03:21

at the European Championships in London.

0:03:210:03:24

It's a huge boost for the team ahead of the biggest

0:03:240:03:27

competition in the world, the Olympic Games which begin

0:03:270:03:32

in Rio, Brazil in just a few months' time.

0:03:320:03:34

BBC Sport's Nick Hope sent this for Newsround.

0:03:340:03:38

Hi, Newsround, it is been a brilliant week for the GB team,

0:03:380:03:41

here at the London Aquatic Centre where the swimmers have been taking

0:03:410:03:44

on the fastest in Europe.

0:03:440:03:46

Adam Peaty was Britain's best swimmer.

0:03:460:03:48

The world record holder won an amazing four gold medals swimming

0:03:480:03:51

his favourite breaststroke events.

0:03:510:03:54

He is an amazing swimmer, a really brilliant swim from him,

0:03:540:03:57

what a wonderful preparation for Rio, 11 weeks from today.

0:03:570:03:59

It is great to come here and defend all my titles.

0:03:590:04:02

I am in the best shape I have ever been and I feel fitter

0:04:020:04:05

than I have ever been, apart from that last 25

0:04:050:04:08

metres where I felt awful!

0:04:080:04:10

I just think of these guys, the crowd, they didn't out

0:04:100:04:15

I just think of these guys, the crowd, they didn't come out

0:04:150:04:17

of the house for nothing and it is a great arena to do it in.

0:04:170:04:21

Great people around us and we are a good team and this

0:04:210:04:24

chemistry will build into Rio now.

0:04:240:04:26

Others who impressed included fellow breaststroker Ross Murdoch who won

0:04:260:04:28

the gold silver and bronze, while sprinter Fran Halsall got five

0:04:280:04:31

medals including a brilliant relay gold on the final night.

0:04:310:04:33

Two of the surprise swims of the week came from GB teenagers.

0:04:330:04:36

18-year-old Kathleen Dawson won bronze in the 100 metre backstroke

0:04:360:04:39

whilst Chloe Tutton, who is 19, also finished third in the 100

0:04:390:04:41

metre breaststroke final.

0:04:410:04:44

Such a good season for me and it has just been up and up and up and up.

0:04:440:04:48

I keep going up and to finish on a high here,

0:04:480:04:51

it is incredible. I love it.

0:04:510:04:53

The British swimmers will now begin their final training

0:04:530:04:54

preparation for this summer's Rio Olympics in Brazil

0:04:540:04:57

which start in August.

0:04:570:05:00

Having been so successful here in London, they will be hoping

0:05:000:05:03

they will be able to pick up plenty of medals for Team GB.

0:05:030:05:06

England have faced their first warm-up game ahead of

0:05:060:05:08

the European Championships in France next month.

0:05:080:05:11

The team enjoyed a 2-1 win over Turkey.

0:05:110:05:15

Harry Kane scored an early goal, and it was Leicester star

0:05:150:05:18

Jamie Vardy who hit the winner.

0:05:180:05:23

The squad face Australia in their next friendly on Wednesday.

0:05:230:05:26

Check out these guys' amazing skills.

0:05:260:05:30

They're some of the world's best wakeboarders and they put

0:05:300:05:33

on a stunning show in Austria this weekend, pulling stunts at the Wake

0:05:330:05:38

of Steel Championships on a specially converted cargo ship.

0:05:380:05:40

Incredible.

0:05:400:05:43

More than 50 million people have watched it.
