0:00:11 > 0:00:14Morning, guys.

0:00:14 > 0:00:18Ayshah here with all the stories this Sunday morning.

0:00:18 > 0:00:21First to Wimbledon - where it should come as no surprise

0:00:21 > 0:00:23to hear that Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer are both safely

0:00:23 > 0:00:27through to the fourth round of the competition.

0:00:27 > 0:00:31Djokovic beat Latvia's Ernests Gulbis in straight sets.

0:00:31 > 0:00:33While Federer made winning look easy, as he dispatched German

0:00:33 > 0:00:38player Mischa Zverev - again in straight sets.

0:00:38 > 0:00:40Britain's Lewis Hamiliton will have his work cut out

0:00:40 > 0:00:43at the Austrian Grand Prix later.

0:00:43 > 0:00:47He'll start back in eighth place, after a picking up a penalty.

0:00:47 > 0:00:50His team mate Valteri Bottas will be on pole,

0:00:50 > 0:00:57with World Championship leader Sebastian Vettel second.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00If you think rubbish can be a problem here on earth,

0:01:00 > 0:01:02imagine the trouble it can cause out in space!

0:01:02 > 0:01:03Step in Super Gekko...

0:01:03 > 0:01:05It'll all make sense when you watch this.

0:01:05 > 0:01:06Here's Whitney.

0:01:06 > 0:01:08There's a big problem up in space.

0:01:08 > 0:01:13Right now, about 500,000 pieces of human-made debris are whizzing

0:01:13 > 0:01:20around space and orbiting our planet at speeds of up to 17,000 mph.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23This debris poses a threat to our satellites and space stations.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25And it's getting scientists thinking.

0:01:25 > 0:01:32The solution?

0:01:32 > 0:01:34Super robots Space Geckos.

0:01:34 > 0:01:36What?

0:01:36 > 0:01:40Top scientists have developed a tool to grab objects in space.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42It's inspired by gecko feet and how they grab

0:01:42 > 0:01:45onto surfaces when climbing.

0:01:45 > 0:01:53Geckos' toes can hold onto almost any surface.

0:01:53 > 0:01:56Their feet are covered in tiny rubbery hairs that grip the surface

0:01:56 > 0:01:59tightly but are also super easy to remove when force is applied

0:01:59 > 0:02:00in the other direction.

0:02:00 > 0:02:08This allows a gecko to climb almost anywhere.

0:02:08 > 0:02:15The scientists copied these tiny hairs for their gripper.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17It has edges just one tenth of millimetre wide.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20The robotic rubber can grip, hold onto and move around even

0:02:20 > 0:02:23larger smooth surfaces in zero gravity and the vacuum of space.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26A possible solution to a big problem up there from

0:02:26 > 0:02:31a tiny little creature down here.

0:02:31 > 0:02:34Finally, if you've ever dreamt of scoring one

0:02:34 > 0:02:36of those amazing one-off, never to be repeated

0:02:36 > 0:02:37goals, then watch this.

0:02:37 > 0:02:42This stunner was scored by Noah in an under nine

0:02:42 > 0:02:46tournament in Bristol.

0:02:46 > 0:02:49I dont know if he meant to do it, but, whatever, the mums and dads

0:02:49 > 0:02:50watching certainly appreciated it.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52He'll be dreaming about that goal for weeks!

0:02:52 > 0:02:56Join us back here just before half past 12,

0:02:56 > 0:02:59and we'll have Martin partying it up at the CBBC Social just outside

0:02:59 > 0:03:02the studio - don't miss it.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07Hi. My favourite CBBC show is Operation Ouch,
