Hello, I'm Jenny, you are live with Newsround. | 0:00:03 | 0:00:05 | |
And you're not going to want to miss all this... | 0:00:05 | 0:00:08 | |
Could geckos save the International Space Station? | 0:00:08 | 0:00:13 | |
And don't look down! | 0:00:13 | 0:00:15 | |
We'll check out the world's longest sky walk. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:25 | |
First up to Wimbledon and not a bad day for the Brits. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:29 | |
Heather Watson has made it through to the next round beating | 0:00:29 | 0:00:33 | |
Anastasija Sevastova in two sets. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:38 | |
Aljaz Bedene also beat Damir Dzumhur three sets to one. | 0:00:38 | 0:00:41 | |
Great news for British number one Johanna Konta as well who has | 0:00:41 | 0:00:47 | |
literally just beaten Donna Vekic from Croatia. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
Sticking with Wimbledon - picture the scene. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:51 | |
You've just watched your favourite player, they throw their towel | 0:00:51 | 0:00:53 | |
into the audience, it's heading right for you. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:56 | |
But then... | 0:00:56 | 0:00:57 | |
It's pinched by someone else! | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
That's exactly what happened to this guy after watching | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
American Jack Sock play. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:04 | |
Luckily Jack is onto it and wants to send the fan a new towel. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:08 | |
Hopefully a clean one. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:11 | |
And of course one match we're looking forward to is Andy Murray, | 0:01:11 | 0:01:14 | |
who should be on court soon. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |
But what does it take to make a Wimbledon champion twice over? | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
We've been finding out. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:23 | |
We are the mini Murrays! | 0:01:23 | 0:01:25 | |
I'm Andy, nice to meet you. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
Shall we hit a few balls together? | 0:01:28 | 0:01:31 | |
Wow! | 0:01:31 | 0:01:32 | |
That was bigger than me. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:33 | |
What is the best moment of your life so far? | 0:01:33 | 0:01:36 | |
Best moment of my life would be | 0:01:36 | 0:01:37 | |
when my daughter was born. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:41 | |
It ended up being a good year on the court, but, yeah, | 0:01:41 | 0:01:45 | |
it was a better one off it for sure. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:50 | |
Who inspired you to play tennis, and what would your advice be | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
if someone wanted to be a tennis player | 0:01:53 | 0:01:55 | |
just like you? | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
I'd say my mum inspired me, and my brother, | 0:01:58 | 0:02:00 | |
to play tennis. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:01 | |
She used to play when she was younger and she really | 0:02:01 | 0:02:04 | |
coached me and my brother until we were like nine or ten years old. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:08 | |
Best piece of advice I could give to anyone | 0:02:08 | 0:02:11 | |
wanting to play tennis would be | 0:02:11 | 0:02:12 | |
to have fun when you are a kid, enjoy playing, | 0:02:12 | 0:02:17 | |
and to listen to your coach. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
There we go, that's excellent! | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
Whose cooking do you prefer? | 0:02:22 | 0:02:23 | |
Your gran's, mum's or wife's? | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
PS, I have tasted your gran's cooking at the Dunblane tennis | 0:02:25 | 0:02:28 | |
courts, and it is delicious. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
HE LAUGHS Lucky you! | 0:02:30 | 0:02:33 | |
That's a really tough question. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
My gran has got a lot of experience getting so I would | 0:02:35 | 0:02:39 | |
say it'd just, JUST be her, but my wife is also a good, good cook. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
It isn't my mum, she would definitely be | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
third on the list. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:52 | |
Poor Judy. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:53 | |
Next, if you think rubbish can be a problem here on Earth, | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
imagine the trouble it can cause out in space! | 0:02:56 | 0:02:58 | |
Step in super gekko... | 0:02:58 | 0:02:59 | |
It'll all make sense when you watch this. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
Here's Whitney. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:02 | |
There's a big problem up in space. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
Right now, about 500,000 pieces of human made debris are whizzing | 0:03:04 | 0:03:09 | |
around space and orbiting our planet at speeds of up to 17,000 mph. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:13 | |
This debris poses a threat to our satellites and space stations. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:19 | |
And it is getting scientists thinking, | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
the solution, super robot space geckos. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
What?! | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
Top scientists have developed a tool to grab objects in | 0:03:28 | 0:03:31 | |
space. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:32 | |
It has been inspired by gecko feet and how they grab onto surfaces | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
when climbing. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:42 | |
Geckos' toes can hold on to almost any smooth surface, | 0:03:42 | 0:03:50 | |
their feet are covered in tiny rubbery hairs | 0:03:50 | 0:03:56 | |
that grip the surface | 0:03:56 | 0:03:57 | |
tightly, are also super easy to remove | 0:03:57 | 0:03:59 | |
when force is applied in the | 0:03:59 | 0:04:00 | |
other direction. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:01 | |
This allows a gecko to climb almost anywhere. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:03 | |
The scientists copied these tiny, tiny | 0:04:03 | 0:04:05 | |
hairs for their grip. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:06 | |
It has wedges one tenth of a millimetre wide. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
The robotic grabber can grip, hold onto | 0:04:08 | 0:04:14 | |
and move around even large smooth surfaces | 0:04:14 | 0:04:16 | |
in zero gravity and the | 0:04:16 | 0:04:17 | |
vacuum of space. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:18 | |
A possible solution to a big problem up there from a tiny | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
little creature down here. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:23 | |
If you're not a fan of heights, I'd look away now. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
This glass walkway in China is the world's longest. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:28 | |
It hangs more than 120 metres above a gaping | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
chasm, and is delighting and terrifying visitors. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:37 | |
Presenters Phil and Holly were in for a bit of a surprise | 0:04:37 | 0:04:46 | |
during their daytime tv show, | 0:04:46 | 0:04:48 | |
a pony poo'd live on air, in the middle of their set. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:50 | |
Not so cute now! | 0:04:50 | 0:04:51 | |
Holly said it was the best thing she'd ever seen. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 | |
Frankly, it's left me a little HOARSE. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:56 | |
That's all from the team today, but set your alarm clocks, | 0:04:56 | 0:04:58 | |
I'll be right here tomorrow morning at 7:40 | 0:04:58 | 0:05:00 | |
with even more Newsround for you. | 0:05:00 | 0:05:00 | |
Imagine if snot was taking over the world. What would you do? | 0:05:05 | 0:05:08 |
