Good evening, all, and welcome to the show. You're with Ricky and | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
Hayley for tonight's Newsround. Loads packed into the show this | :00:19. | :00:23. | |
Wednesday. Including: Mouldy meat, stinking veg and maggots galore - | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
we step inside a rotting kitchen. Plus, why you might see something | :00:28. | :00:37. | |
extra bright in the skies tonight. But first, a case of animal SOS. | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
There has been a massive rescue operation in Wales to save hundreds | :00:40. | :00:43. | |
of seabirds. They were meant to be heading to Argentina 8,000 miles | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
away in South America. But they got into trouble when | :00:46. | :00:50. | |
strong winds battered them as they began their annual migration. | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
The birds were all set for their trip to South America. They do it | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
every year, it should have been simple. But Mother Nature had other | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
ideas. Hundreds of Manx Shearwaters had only just left Pembrokeshire | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
when 50-mile-an hour winds sent them back towards the cliffs and | :01:03. | :01:11. | |
into the sea. Many got caught up in rough waters and struggled to fly. | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
It sparked the biggest animal rescue in Wales for 15 years, with | :01:14. | :01:23. | |
the RSPCA and local volunteers pulling birds from the sea. I came | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
down here first thing to look at what happened last night and | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
discovered what I thought what 200 birds on the beach, and some | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
Dannatt, so my colleagues and I proceeded to go into the surf | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
kitted up and rescue as many men as we can. They managed to save almost | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
500 birds. Sadly, many others didn't survive. The rescued birds | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
are now being looked after at a special animal centre, where they | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
will stay until they are fit to fly. The RSPCA will be going back to the | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
beach to look for more. In the meantime, they want anyone who | :01:53. | :01:59. | |
finds one of the stranded birds to let them know. | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
This was the moment more than 40 years ago that Apollo 11 blasted | :02:02. | :02:07. | |
off, on its mission to put the first man on the moon. Four days | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
later, two astronauts touched down and made history. | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
But not everyone was convinced. Some people think the moon landings | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
never happened. But today, NASA has released new | :02:16. | :02:24. | |
images which they hope will prove those people wrong! | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
1969. The world went moon mad. Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on | :02:28. | :02:37. | |
the surface of planet Earth's closest neighbour. Or did they? | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
is one small step for man... Ever since, there have been people who | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
insist it was all fake and all filmed in a TV studio. But NASA | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
says these new snaps from a satellite are proof the landings | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
were real. Look closely, these are the marks | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
made my lunar modules. It even shows the vehicles that were left | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
behind. And have a look at this. The pictures clearly detail the | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
dusty tracks made by the wheels of the Moon Buggy. Between 1969 and | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
1972, 12 men have walked on the moon. But are these pictures enough | :03:07. | :03:14. | |
to silence the non-believers? And sticking with space, if you | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
look out of your window tonight, you might see this. | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
A supernova - a massive exploding star ten times bigger than the sun. | :03:21. | :03:28. | |
It could be your last chance to see one for another 100 years. Because | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
it is 21 million light years away, it won't look quite like this, but | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
with the right binoculars, you might just catch a glimpse. | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
Now, every night in England, almost 2,000 people sleep on the streets. | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
And many families have no home to call their own. But around the | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
country, there are more than 700,000 homes lying empty. | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
Well, this week, a judge said that vacant houses should be printed on | :03:47. | :03:52. | |
a list so that homeless people can use them. But, as I've been finding | :03:52. | :04:00. | |
out, there is a big row over whether that is a good idea. | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
This is an old disused garden centre in South London, but you | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
will not find plants for sale because it is the home of around 10 | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
people living there free of charge and without permission. It is | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
called squatting. Reuben and her friends have lived here for the | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
past year or so. They pay their own bills and have made themselves at | :04:19. | :04:26. | |
home. Why do you squat in his garden centre? I squat here because | :04:26. | :04:32. | |
I need a place to live. Unfortunately, I cannot afford to | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
pay rent in London at the moment. But this place is not yours, it is | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
owned by somebody else, is that fair? The people that Owen this do | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
not have a particularly useful it and we have a very strong views for | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
it -- that Owen Day us. While it is not being used for anything else, | :04:52. | :04:58. | |
it seems sensible we should use it for our homes in the community. | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
Reuben and her mates say they are not doing anything wrong. At the | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
moment, moving in to an empty property isn't against the law, | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
even if you don't own it. But it can become a problem when squatters | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
break into people's homes and refuse to leave. That is when it is | :05:11. | :05:18. | |
a crime, and it can take ages to get them out. Once they have come | :05:18. | :05:25. | |
over the threshold by whatever means, you cannot do anything. It | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
is really difficult. That is why the Government wants to make all | :05:29. | :05:38. | |
squatting illegal, like it already is in Scotland. | :05:38. | :05:44. | |
Now fought some sparkle. Strictly Come Dancing starts on Saturday and | :05:44. | :05:51. | |
the line-up is out. Among the celebs are ex-Welsh footie star | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
Robbie Savage and Shanice from Waterloo Road - actress Chelsea | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
Healey. They are up against a boxer, a comedian and a few singing stars. | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
Looks like they need all the rehearsals they can get. | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
Right, time to step inside possibly the most disgusting kitchen in the | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
world. A new BBC show has decided to find out what would happen if | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
you left a room full of food, untouched for two months. The show | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
is called After Life, and I went for special behind-the-scenes | :06:12. | :06:13. | |
access. This may look like an ordinary | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
kitchen, but look a little closer. It is the most horrible, blotting, | :06:16. | :06:21. | |
gross kitchen you ever did see. That is because it is a massive | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
experiment set up in Edinburgh Zoo to record the effects of decay and | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
what goes undetected every single day. This kitchen was set up at the | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
beginning of August. Ball two macro months, cameras and scientists are | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
recording what is going on and it has already got a bit nasty -- for | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
two months. These were demolished by maggots after a few days. And | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
look at this chicken that expands as the bacteria in which releases | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
poisonous gases. But there is only way -- one way to test how it is | :06:53. | :07:02. | |
going, I am going inside. It absolutely stinks in here! It | :07:03. | :07:10. | |
smells of rotting vegetables, at dead animals! A bit of stick! It | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
really stinks! What is this experiment about, why are you doing | :07:14. | :07:23. | |
this? Everybody thinks about pandas and clients, but to make that | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
happen, you need it case. So the world revolves around what bacteria | :07:26. | :07:34. | |
and for a guy does it. Without recycling, yet you would not have | :07:34. | :07:39. | |
anything else. This experiment is to find things there are living. | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
There were thousands of unidentified living species and | :07:42. | :07:48. |
