0:00:04 > 0:00:05Hi, I'm Ayshah.

0:00:05 > 0:00:09Here's what we've got for you this Friday morning.

0:00:09 > 0:00:12We asked Tim Peake your Big Question...

0:00:12 > 0:00:16Plus, the ice art show that's set to thrill.

0:00:28 > 0:00:31First up - a big supermarket chain says it's going to stop selling

0:00:31 > 0:00:32energy drinks to kids under 16.

0:00:32 > 0:00:36You won't be able to buy the drinks from Waitrose because of their high

0:00:36 > 0:00:38levels of caffeine and sugar.

0:00:38 > 0:00:41Children in the UK get through more energy drinks each year

0:00:41 > 0:00:47than in any other country in Europe.

0:00:47 > 0:00:52We would like to know what you think about this. Should you be allowed to

0:00:52 > 0:00:56buy energy drinks? Get in touch online.

0:00:56 > 0:00:59It is winter, so we probably shouldn't be surprised that it's

0:00:59 > 0:01:00pretty cold outside.

0:01:00 > 0:01:02But in parts of America, the temperatures are

0:01:02 > 0:01:03much more drastic!

0:01:03 > 0:01:04Whitney's got this...

0:01:04 > 0:01:07How cilly does this look?

0:01:07 > 0:01:09The US is currently on its tenth day of

0:01:09 > 0:01:11record-breaking cold temperatures.

0:01:11 > 0:01:16Which began around Christmas.

0:01:16 > 0:01:17Some places have been colder then Mars!

0:01:17 > 0:01:20Yeah, that is so cold that some experts have started describing it

0:01:20 > 0:01:22as a bomb cyclone.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25It certainly sounds dramatic.

0:01:25 > 0:01:28It is caused when air pressure drops quickly and means

0:01:28 > 0:01:32even more freezing temperatures, blizzards and dangerously icy winds.

0:01:32 > 0:01:37Strong enough to bring down trees.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39Some people say it could feel like a winter hurricane.

0:01:39 > 0:01:43Schools have been closed in areas around New York,

0:01:43 > 0:01:46which are likely to be hardest hit by heavy snow.

0:01:46 > 0:01:50It could be more than 25 centimetres deep.

0:01:50 > 0:01:54Big cities like Boston also face problems with big

0:01:54 > 0:01:56blizzards on the way there also.

0:01:56 > 0:01:58But for some people in Tallahassee in

0:01:58 > 0:02:03Florida snow weather has been a bit of a novelty.

0:02:03 > 0:02:05They have only had a little compared to the other side of

0:02:05 > 0:02:11the country and most of it melted when it hit the ground.

0:02:11 > 0:02:14But is the first time they have snow in 28 years.

0:02:14 > 0:02:17Next, want to know what's going to be BIG in 2018

0:02:17 > 0:02:18in the world of technology?

0:02:18 > 0:02:22Ricky's been taking a closer look at the top tech stories we can

0:02:22 > 0:02:24expect in the year ahead.

0:02:24 > 0:02:27Take it away Ricky...

0:02:31 > 0:02:35Tech fans will be gathering in Las Vegas in the US for the annual

0:02:35 > 0:02:37consumer Electronics show.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39Sounds pretty dull but it is actually where all

0:02:39 > 0:02:43the latest gadgets get shown off for the first time.

0:02:43 > 0:02:48Smart speakers will certainly be there.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50The voice-activated devices are taking over

0:02:50 > 0:02:53our homes with a simple command you can get things done.

0:02:53 > 0:02:55You can ask the speakers to play music, tell it to

0:02:55 > 0:02:57research some homework and check the weather forecast before

0:02:57 > 0:03:00you leave the house.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03Google and Amazon have already sold millions of their smart

0:03:03 > 0:03:04speakers.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07In 2018, Apple will join them with the launch of the home

0:03:07 > 0:03:12pod.

0:03:12 > 0:03:15Every year tech experts say it is the year of the virtual reality

0:03:15 > 0:03:16headset.

0:03:16 > 0:03:19But VR hasn't really taken off now that could be because they

0:03:19 > 0:03:22are still pretty pricey.

0:03:22 > 0:03:24Well, this year oculus will release the oculus

0:03:24 > 0:03:25go.

0:03:25 > 0:03:28It is much cheaper than their previous models.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30The all in one headset doesn't need to be linked up

0:03:30 > 0:03:32to the console or the phone to work.

0:03:32 > 0:03:41Could these robots end up in our homes?

0:03:41 > 0:03:42This is spot mini.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45The robot acts as a little bit like a dog.

0:03:45 > 0:03:46The company that makes some things it

0:03:46 > 0:03:48would be a good addition to homes and offices.

0:03:48 > 0:03:51Last up, millions of people have bought Nintendo's latest console.

0:03:51 > 0:03:52The switch.

0:03:52 > 0:03:54Rumours of a switch many have been doing the

0:03:54 > 0:03:55rounds online.

0:03:55 > 0:03:58And as ever, every once in a when the next PlayStation

0:03:58 > 0:04:05will be out.

0:04:05 > 0:04:11Could 2018 be the year of the PS5?

0:04:11 > 0:04:15Here at Newsround HQ we try to answer some

0:04:15 > 0:04:18of life's big questions - so we get you to send us your ideas.

0:04:18 > 0:04:28Let's find out what you wanted us to help with today.

0:04:39 > 0:04:45A great question. Inside a space station, it know it doesn't because

0:04:45 > 0:04:52the space station atmosphere is the same. But when we go into a space

0:04:52 > 0:04:56suits for our space walks we have to go to a much much lower pressure

0:04:56 > 0:05:01otherwise the space will be so rigid we wouldn't be to move. We reduce

0:05:01 > 0:05:05the the pressure inside the space it. It is the same pressure to get

0:05:05 > 0:05:12onto Everest. I find most astronauts... It sounds that they

0:05:12 > 0:05:16are speaking with a low much lower pitch.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18Amazing!

0:05:18 > 0:05:20Thanks, Tim.

0:05:20 > 0:05:21Now we want more of your Big Questions....

0:05:21 > 0:05:22The weirder the better.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25Is there a question running through your mind that you'd love us

0:05:25 > 0:05:27to find out the answer to?

0:05:27 > 0:05:31Well, just go to Newsround online where you can send us your ideas.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33Now, here's an art show with a difference -

0:05:33 > 0:05:35the whole thing is made out of ice!

0:05:35 > 0:05:38Artists are busy getting ready for the opening of the Ice

0:05:38 > 0:05:39and Snow Sculpture Festival in China.

0:05:39 > 0:05:43They're expecting tens of thousands of visitors who'll be able

0:05:43 > 0:05:51to explore the chilly attractions while they're all lit up at night.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Looks amazing. I want to go!
