It's Sunday afternoon, I'm Ayshah with your midday update.

Going, going, gone... The old power plant that's disappeared.

And - bagpipes played in space for the first time.

First - it's Remembrance Sunday today, a

chance for people to think about all those who've been killed or injured,

As Big Ben struck eleven o'clock, guns were fired .

It was watched by the Queen, the Duke of Edinburgh, Princes William

and Harry, The Prime Minister David Cameron and crowds of soldiers.

There was two minutes' silence for people to say

Then the trumpets were heard and wreaths began to be laid

There are other remembrance services being held across the UK The Queen

and the Duke of Edinburgh, Politicians

and the most important people from other countries all laid their

own wreaths of poppies to remember those who sacrificed their lives.

Music was played and hymns were sung as part of the service.

We spoke to some of you about what you think about the day.

It is when we remember the people that fought for our country. You

have two minutes of silence and the Queen puts down floral wreaths in

London. There are poppies and statues. It is important because it

was over 100 years ago and it is such a great honour for the soldiers

to risk their lives for our future. The poppies are important because

they show we still remember those people who died for us. It is

important because it gives us respect for what they have done to

help our country. My great grandad fought in the First World War as a

Sergeant. He was a spy undercover and retrieve information from

Germany and got a medal for bravery. He was shot. He went back in the

Second World War. He was an officer in the Navy, where he worked on the

Manchester Ship Canal. His ship got bombed and he died. My great grandad

was an air raid shelter warden. When she heard the air raid siren, he got

everybody into the air raid chapters. My great grandad got a

bravery medal. You can find out about

the history of the poppy on our And there are more details

about the history of Remembrance Day Next, this former power plant in

Michigan in America was demolished It worked for almost 70 years before

it was taken out of use in 2011. People living nearby were told to

stay indoors This story is out of this world -

Bagpipes have been played American astronaut Carl Lindgren,

who lives at the International Space Station, played Amazing Grace

as a tribute to a friend. And it's officially the worst season

for Chelsea's Jose Mourinho Fans were still singing Mourinho's

Paris Masters final for the first If he beats Novak Djokovic later,

at a birthday party? It's a paper mache animal full

of sweets that you break open to They were on display in Mexico City,

and are said to bring good luck. Time for a look at the weird

and wonderful stories making the news this week.

Here's Jenny. Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No. And

now when really knows what it is. This fireball was caught on camera

flying over a city in Thailand. Experts think it could be part of a

meteor. Turkeys have never much liked Christmas. Did you know they

are not so keen on bonfire night? They are scared of the loud bangs

from fireworks. One farmer has come up with a plan to help. He has been

letting off rockets next to their enclosure for the last month to get

them used to the noise. Now, to the dancers who quite literally have two

left feet. International dog dancing Championships are taking place in

Germany. This gives dogs and owners a chance to show off their moves. I

would give them a 7! That's all from me for now, I'll be

back just after 1:45pm. Bye!
