Hello there news fans. Ore and Sonali here with you live. We have

this on the way for you today: How plans to take humans to the sun are

hotting up. And why this lovable beast is not

looking forward to the winter. First, we are talking about runaway

kids. If you have ever had an argument

with your family or a fight with your brother or sister you might

have felt like running away from home. There are some kids who think

walking out is their only option. The Children's Society charity says

each year 100,000 kids in the UK run away for at least one night and

around a third are under 12. It's something that's grabbed the

attention of Diversity who are backing a new campaign to raise

awareness about how dangerous running away can be.

Ricky has been to meet them. There are some kids out there who

don't have that support network and when you have this anger, confused

feel feelings, and there's no one supporting you, obviously you are

not going to be in a good place, this is why we have got involved in

the campaign to let people know there's something there. Tell us

about the video. We filmed the video, it includes stats and more

information to show people. We had loads of fun making it. There was

loads of cool camera techniques like all the slow-mo. There's 11 of

us in the group, we are like brothers so we have a massive

support network. For anyone who is feeling angry and feels they're

going to run away having that outlet of activity or something you

are passionate about can help. With us today is Andy McCullough

from the charity Railway Children behind this campaign. You yourself

ran away as a kid, why? I ended up in care after things in my family

went wrong and I felt nobody listened to me, nobody cared so I

run off and would end up spending weeks at a time on the streets.

It's probably a case a lot of people have had, but there's a

difference between just spending a few nights away and running away

and living on the streets, isn't there? Luckily most children will

return home, however a lot stay out there and the dangers they face are

horrific. If there is anyone out there at the moment that's feeling

bad about where they're living and feels like no one kaeufrs, -- cares,

what would you say? What would your advice be? Please don't suffer in

silence. Speak to somebody, find aadult, a teacher, a youth worker,

but don't say silent and see if you can get help. Thank you very much.

We have lots more information on the Newsround website including who

to contact if you are thinking about running away from home and

next week we are running special reports on what it's like to be

young and homeless. Now to America, there p frantic

rescue scenes in New York. It was after a helicopter crashed into a

river. A British woman died in the crash and two others are in

hospital. Investigators are trying to find out why the helicopter went

down minutes after it took off. Now a big row about whale hunting.

Catching the huge mammals for money has been banned for 25 years. But

this week whale hunters in Japan said they're going ahead with their

annual mission to capture and kill whales in Antarctica despite lots

of protests from the rest of the world.

They're one of nature's most impressive figures, admired by

animal lovers for their grace and size.

But in one part of the globe the fascination with whales is

controversial. Fishermen in Japan have been tradely hunting --

traditionally hunting whales for years and catch about 1,000 a year.

It's something the rest of the world think is wrong. It's

something we feel strongly about and we have expressed our

disappointment. In international rules say it's illegal to hunt

whales and then sell on their meat, teeth or other products. Japan

insists the whales they catch are for scientific research. But lots

of the meat ends up on dinner plates around the country. Despite

having to cut short their whaling season last year because of fierce

protests, this week Japan said they're doing it again this year

and they're increasing security to keep the protesters away. Many

whale species are on the endangered list and their numbers are going

down. Animal rights groups say they will continue to follow the

fishermen to try and get them to stop when the ships leave later

this year. Now look at this blazing sun. A

swirling ball of gas raging at over 5,000 stke Greece sells -- degrees

Celsius. You wouldn't think of getting close to the real thing, or

would you? This is the solar orbitter, it's a new rocket that

scientists say will go closer to the sun than ever before. It's

being led by the European Space Agency and will be ready to launch

in six years. A huge dust storm caused chaos

yesterday when it swept across the desert in Arizona in America. It

was so thick drivers couldn't see out of their windscreens. It caused

a big accident on the motorway involving 16 vehicles. One man died

and 12 others were injured. You might think the countryside is

the best place for bird-spotting, if that's your bag. But that's not

necessarily the case. Cities are home to all kinds of impressive

birds. We sent Leah, from such famous wildlife series as Leah's

Wild 5 to see if she could spot some. Where is the best place to

spot birds of prey? I headed up and up, and up one of the tallest

skyscrapers in London. We have made it to the top of tower

42 overlooking this concrete jungle that is London, a stunning view.

The last place you might expect to see lots of wildlife, but in fact,

I am told there's hrodz of birds of -- loads of birds of prey that

should be flying above us, I am hoping to spot some. We are looking

for peregrines. Buzzards occasionally fly over. We are

hoping for red waoeuts that have been -- waoeuts -- kites. I had no

idea these birds flew across London, especially the peregrinie falcon.

Got it! What is it do you think? How big are they? A pigeon?! Sadly,

that was as close as we got. We haven't spotted anything today. But

whether you live in a big city like London or the countryside wildlife

is never far away and the key to spotting birds of prey where you

live is heading outside and looking I am gutted for her, no luck there.

She tries her hardest. Maybe she forgot her lucky charm, whether you

believe they work or not, hundreds are on display in a special

exhibition in London. Some people believe they can protect you from

lightning strikes or getting getting ill. You can see more

pictures on the website. Adele has been forced to cancel her

ten-date tour of America because of problems with her throat. She had
