:00:00. > :00:08.This is Newsround with me, Ricky. On the way:

:00:09. > :00:11.The DNA testing that could reveal where your family lived a thousand

:00:12. > :00:13.years ago. The mystery over what caused a huge

:00:14. > :00:23.hole in this street in America. First, though, the UK could get its

:00:24. > :00:27.own spaceport in the future after the Government back plans to pump

:00:28. > :00:31.?40 billion into the project. They want to encourage more companies to

:00:32. > :00:36.develop ways of getting into space by 2030. They also want to figure

:00:37. > :00:39.out what needs to be done to have a port that would allow ordinary

:00:40. > :00:45.people to go into orbit. Similar space tourism projects are already

:00:46. > :00:48.being developed in America. And from spaceports to airports -

:00:49. > :00:51.and a big computer glitch has meant thousands of people are facing long

:00:52. > :00:55.waits this morning It's affected airports across the UK and means

:00:56. > :00:59.means passport details have to be typed in manually. Officials don't

:01:00. > :01:04.know what caused it and are still trying to fix the problem. The BBC's

:01:05. > :01:09.Chris King's been at one of the airports affected.

:01:10. > :01:14.Normally when you arrive at passport control, what happens is that they

:01:15. > :01:18.take your passport and scan it and it verifies that you are who you say

:01:19. > :01:23.you are and then they let you go on your way. But yesterday afternoon,

:01:24. > :01:26.there was a computer glitch and it was one of those that couldn't be

:01:27. > :01:31.solved by turning the computer off and on again. So when passengers got

:01:32. > :01:36.off the plane at places like Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton,

:01:37. > :01:43.Manchester, Gatwick and Stansted, they were greeted with large queues.

:01:44. > :01:47.Next - how much of the housework do you do? Not a lot? Well, children in

:01:48. > :01:50.Spain might not get away with lazing about at home in the future. The

:01:51. > :01:53.country's government has said it thinks all kids should help with the

:01:54. > :01:56.household chores. Could the idea catch on here? Here's Martin.

:01:57. > :02:00.Cooking dinner, mopping the floor, doing the dishes, cleaning my

:02:01. > :02:06.room... I'm not a fan of doing the housework. Oh, no. I prefer chilling

:02:07. > :02:10.out in front of the telly with a nice cup of tea. But children in

:02:11. > :02:17.Spain might not be able to relax so easily. The government has drafted

:02:18. > :02:20.some guidelines on how kids should behave - and one of these says

:02:21. > :02:24.everyone should help out with chores at home! But what do you guys think

:02:25. > :02:31.about this? Meet Jasmine, Kayden, Caitlynn and mum Kelly. I asked them

:02:32. > :02:37.about what they thought about it. I think it's a bit pathetic because,

:02:38. > :02:41.like, kids are going to think that they can't have time with their

:02:42. > :02:49.friends and everything. You've got school and you've got to do your

:02:50. > :02:55.chores. People, yeah, might just sit down and I think the government is

:02:56. > :03:00.right about it. It should be their mums telling them to grow up and get

:03:01. > :03:03.the house work done. I do agree that they should help out but I think it

:03:04. > :03:09.should be down to the parents to teach them that. What gets all the

:03:10. > :03:22.chores started in the house? My mum says that if you don't do it, she

:03:23. > :03:25.will be angry. I scream at Jasmine when she messes up the bed. If you

:03:26. > :03:29.hate housework, then don't worry, guys - we've not heard of any plans

:03:30. > :03:34.for such guidelines in the UK! But that's not saying that no-one else

:03:35. > :03:39.will ask you to do some chores. Come on, Martin, let's get cleaning. We

:03:40. > :03:42.want to know what you think about this on the website today. Here are

:03:43. > :04:21.some of the comments so far: Now, imagine being able to trace

:04:22. > :04:24.your family back to where they lived more than a thousand years ago.

:04:25. > :04:28.Well, a group of scientists claim they can do just that using state of

:04:29. > :04:31.the art DNA testing. They say they can pinpoint the exact village or

:04:32. > :04:35.tribe where your ancestors used to live. They do it by comparing the

:04:36. > :04:38.DNA sample - which carries info about who we are - to others from

:04:39. > :04:42.around the world. Next to the mystery over how part of

:04:43. > :04:45.a street collapsed It happened in Baltimore, America, when a pavement

:04:46. > :04:48.and wall slid onto rail tracks below. Around a dozen parked cars

:04:49. > :04:52.were sucked into the ground, but luckily no-one was injured. It's not

:04:53. > :04:54.clear what caused it - but the area has been hit by heavy rain this

:04:55. > :04:57.week. And finally, Springfield is set to

:04:58. > :05:01.get a plastic make over for the 550th episode of The Simpsons. To

:05:02. > :05:02.celebrate 25 years on air the whole
