Good morning.

0:00:090:00:11

Hi, I'm Hayley - and you're

watching Newsround.

0:00:110:00:13

Coming up in the next few minutes.

0:00:130:00:15

Success for the world's

most powerful rocket!

0:00:150:00:17

What girls think about girls.

0:00:170:00:20

Powerful.

0:00:200:00:23

Independent.

0:00:230:00:24

Equal to boys.

0:00:240:00:25

And a nine-goal FA Cup thriller!

0:00:250:00:29

Bases

0:00:290:00:33

-- this is Newsround.

0:00:350:00:39

Big news in the world

of space travel.

0:00:390:00:40

the most powerful rocket

in the world - the Falcon Heavy -

0:00:400:00:43

was successfully launched

into space last night.

0:00:430:00:45

Houston - run VT.

0:00:450:00:47

Five, four, three,

two, one, blastoff!

0:00:470:00:55

It's taken seven years but,

boys and girls, that is what

0:00:570:00:59

you call a successful launch of

the most powerful rocket ever built.

0:00:590:01:03

The Falcon Heavy is

the brainchild of SpaceX, the

0:01:030:01:05

company run by South

African Elon Musk.

0:01:050:01:07

Never heard of him?

0:01:070:01:08

Well, it's rumoured

that Robert Downey Jr

0:01:080:01:16

based the character Tony Stark,

AKA Iron Man, on him.

0:01:170:01:22

Kind of gives you an idea

about the type of guy he is.

0:01:220:01:25

Back to the rocket.

0:01:250:01:26

It used 27 separate

engines to launch it into

0:01:260:01:28

space - that's around the same power

as 18 Boeing 747 aeroplanes taking

0:01:280:01:32

off, and twice as powerful as any

other rocket in use at the minute.

0:01:320:01:35

It means the Falcon Heavy can carry

twice as much into space, 64 tonnes

0:01:350:01:38

to be exact.

0:01:380:01:39

That's basically five

double-decker buses.

0:01:390:01:40

It opens up the possibility

for astronauts to travel

0:01:400:01:43

further, and bigger robots to be

sent to planets like Mars.

0:01:430:01:51

On top of that, the

boosters that the Falcon

0:01:520:01:54

uses to power it into

space are reusable.

0:01:540:01:58

Once detached from the main body

of the craft they should

0:01:580:02:00

fly themselves back to Earth.

0:02:000:02:02

Now, that is cool.

0:02:020:02:03

So, who was lucky enough to be

on the first flight?

0:02:030:02:05

Well, no humans, unfortunately.

0:02:050:02:07

You see, a lot of test

flights can go wrong.

0:02:070:02:14

But that's not to say

the spaceship was empty.

0:02:140:02:16

Bring forth, Starman.

0:02:160:02:18

Yeah, that's a dummy riding

a cherry red car to Mars,

0:02:180:02:21

with the radio on, of course.

0:02:210:02:26

Rescue teams are working hard

to help people in Taiwan

0:02:260:02:32

after a strong earthquake

happened there.

0:02:320:02:33

Four people died and

200 others are hurt.

0:02:330:02:35

Many buildings have been damage.

0:02:350:02:38

Hundreds of people had

to sleep outside in the city

0:02:380:02:41

of Hualien last night.

0:02:410:02:42

A lot of things have changed

in the UK since women fought

0:02:420:02:47

for the right to vote 100 years ago.

0:02:470:02:49

Back then, women weren't allowed

to have a say in elections,

0:02:490:02:52

and couldn't do certain jobs.

0:02:520:02:53

So we wanted to know what you think

about being a girl in 2018.

0:02:530:02:56

What's the best thing

about being a girl?

0:02:560:02:58

You've got a strong mind.

0:02:580:03:02

You can, like, go out shopping

with my mates and have sleepovers.

0:03:020:03:04

What can be difficult

about being a girl?

0:03:040:03:06

Sometimes people underestimate you.

0:03:060:03:08

Sometimes a stereotype that a girl's

supposed to look a certain

0:03:080:03:11

way and dress a certain way,

but not everyone wants to do the.

0:03:110:03:14

way and dress a certain way,

but not everyone wants to do that.

0:03:140:03:17

People have higher

expectations of girls

0:03:170:03:18

than they do of boys.

0:03:180:03:20

Do you think girls and boys

are treated the same?

0:03:200:03:24

No, especially like when you get

older, boys get paid more

0:03:240:03:28

than girls.

0:03:280:03:28

Girls, I think, we can, like,

boys are better at football.

0:03:280:03:33

I think that in school

girls and boys are

0:03:330:03:36

treated the same because everybody

should be equal in school.

0:03:360:03:38

Boys and girls are the same, really.

0:03:380:03:42

I don't think that there

should be much difference.

0:03:420:03:44

Who are your female

role models and why?

0:03:440:03:46

Rosa Parks because she stood up

for the equality of everyone.

0:03:460:03:49

Nicola Adams because she shows that

sports isn't just for

0:03:490:03:51

like boys and men.

0:03:510:03:52

Finish the sentence.

0:03:520:03:53

Girls are...

0:03:530:03:54

Powerful.

0:03:540:03:55

Mature and they don't

give up on things.

0:03:550:03:58

Independent.

0:03:580:03:59

Equal to boys.

0:03:590:04:05

Thanks, guys.

0:04:050:04:08

OK, time for a quick round-up of

some of the other top stories today.

0:04:080:04:11

And, wow!

0:04:110:04:12

What a game for Swansea in their FA

Cup fourth round replay.

0:04:120:04:15

They thrashed Notts County 8-1.

0:04:150:04:17

Dan James got the final goal

on his Swansea debut.

0:04:170:04:19

The Swans will now face

Sheffield Wednesday.

0:04:190:04:21

Huddersfield and Rochdale

also won their replays.

0:04:210:04:22

It's looking more and more likely

that Leicester midfielder

0:04:220:04:24

Riyad Mahrez won't be involved

in their Premier League match

0:04:240:04:27

against Manchester City on Saturday.

0:04:270:04:29

He's been hoping for a move

to the League leaders

0:04:290:04:31

but the deal fell through.

0:04:310:04:33

And he hasn't reported

for training now for a week.

0:04:330:04:38

A service took place at Old Trafford

yesterday to mark 60

0:04:380:04:43

years since an aeroplane,

coming from the European Cup

0:04:430:04:47

tie, crashed as it took

off at Munich airport.

0:04:470:04:49

It was called the Munich air

disaster and 23 people were killed

0:04:490:04:52

including eight

Manchester United players.

0:04:520:04:54

I'm back in just over half an hour

with loads more great stories.

0:04:540:04:57

Enjoy your breakfast!
