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.
