0:00:05 > 0:00:08Ricky here bringing you up to speed on all of today's top stories.
0:00:08 > 0:00:10On Newsround this afternoon:
0:00:10 > 0:00:12The new way to have a drink in space.
0:00:12 > 0:00:15Plus, the plan to serve up a new version of bake-off.
0:00:15 > 0:00:20Stick with us.
0:00:25 > 0:00:27But first, today the UK has started attacking
0:00:27 > 0:00:32the group that calls itself Islamic State in the country of Syria.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35It's after 24 hours of arguments and debates.
0:00:35 > 0:00:39Here's Ayshah with a look back at what's happened.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42British planes have been taking off to drop bombs in the country
0:00:42 > 0:00:48of Syria, where a war has been going on for many years.
0:00:48 > 0:00:51The bombs are aimed at an extremist group
0:00:51 > 0:00:54which calls itself Islamic State or IS,
0:00:54 > 0:00:58which carried out attacks on the French city of Paris last month.
0:00:58 > 0:01:00Yesterday, politicians here in the UK voted
0:01:00 > 0:01:03to attack Islamic State in Syria.
0:01:03 > 0:01:09The Ayes to the right 397, the Noes to the left, 223.
0:01:09 > 0:01:22The Ayes have it.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25People who support the decision say it is the best way to deal with
0:01:25 > 0:01:29Islamic State but others say it will make the situation worse, and people
0:01:29 > 0:01:32in Syria who have nothing to do with Islamic State could be killed.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35Well, if you've got questions about what
0:01:35 > 0:01:38this all means then send them in to the Newsround website and we'll get
0:01:38 > 0:01:42a BBC reporter to answer them.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44There's also lots more info about the air strikes. And what
0:01:44 > 0:01:46Islamic State is online too.
0:01:46 > 0:01:47Let's get some other top stories now.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50A special space probe's been launched into orbit to find out
0:01:50 > 0:01:51more about how gravity works.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54The Lisa Pathfinder will carry out experiments in space, including
0:01:54 > 0:01:56what happens when stars explode.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58Sticking with space, Nasa has designed
0:01:58 > 0:02:01a special cup that allows astronauts to drink normally in orbit.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Because there's no gravity up there it's usually difficult to
0:02:03 > 0:02:06keep any liquid in a cup or glass.
0:02:06 > 0:02:10But this high-tech design uses special curves to keep the drink in.
0:02:10 > 0:02:16And a new spin-off of the Great British Bake-Off has been announced.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19The show called creme de la creme will see professional chefs
0:02:19 > 0:02:24competing to create a range of mini-treats.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26Next let's talk about the future of planet earth, and what you guys
0:02:26 > 0:02:28think we can do to improve it.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Right now countries around the world are involved in a big meeting
0:02:31 > 0:02:34about how to stop climate change.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36So Ayshah's been to see kids at a special school
0:02:36 > 0:02:40in Bristol to get their ideas.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44Climate change is important to me because the world needs to be
0:02:44 > 0:02:48a greener place for everyone to live in.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52Because I like fluffy animals and if the water is rising and it is
0:02:52 > 0:02:57getting warmer, it may melt all of the cold animals' habitats.
0:02:57 > 0:03:03I think it is important because if we don't act fast,
0:03:03 > 0:03:08our world will get really hot and we don't want that to happen.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10We are here in Bristol because it has been named
0:03:10 > 0:03:14as European Green Capital in 2015.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17The kids in the city gets special lessons all about the environment.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20What are they doing to help?
0:03:20 > 0:03:23At school we had a committee and they go around
0:03:23 > 0:03:29every classroom and recycle all the paper, cardboard, plastic.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33We do monitoring where we turn off the lights to make sure
0:03:33 > 0:03:36it doesn't get too hot.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39At home I sometimes rely on my parents to recycle stuff.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42Last month, I asked my mum if I could keep my
0:03:42 > 0:03:49Fanta bottle to make a rocket ship.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52guys do if they were in charge?
0:03:52 > 0:03:55I would say reduce the amount of fossil fields we use in cars
0:03:55 > 0:03:57and vehicles.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00What would you say to the leaders in charge?
0:04:00 > 0:04:06I would say if one species of animal got endangered, there is nothing we
0:04:06 > 0:04:11could do so act fast, David Cameron.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14All we need you to do is to help recycle and we can save the world.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16My message would be to clean our oceans.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Why?
0:04:18 > 0:04:21Because there is a lot of pollution going in it.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24I would say, David Cameron, if you listen to a child's opinion,
0:04:24 > 0:04:30it could change the world.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32There's more about climate change and what world leaders are hoping to
0:04:32 > 0:04:35achieve at that meeting on the Newsround website.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38And that is also where to check out the newly discovered ancient,
0:04:38 > 0:04:41Star Wars dinosaur giraffe fossil.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44Intrigued? You should be.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46But finally, to the baby panda twins enjoying
0:04:46 > 0:04:48a pretty cool birthday treat.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51These two celebrated their first birthday at a zoo in Japan with a
0:04:51 > 0:04:54special pink cake made out of ice.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56That's about it from me now though.
0:04:56 > 0:04:57We're back tomorrow morning.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58Have a great night.
