Good morning, Ricky with you this Monday morning, We're live on CBBC

:00:00.:00:09.

On the way: We meet the teacher who's won a major prize.

:00:10.:00:15.

And find out why a bread ban has done wonders for ducks.

:00:16.:00:28.

Today's a big day for space exploration, as a rocket will blast

:00:29.:00:31.

off to try to find out more about the Red Planet,

:00:32.:00:35.

Here's Leah with more on this mission.

:00:36.:00:42.

The Trace Gas Orbiter will blast off from Kazakhstan as the first

:00:43.:00:45.

of a two-part mission that will study the Mars atmosphere.

:00:46.:00:50.

Its mission is to search for signs of life and test

:00:51.:00:53.

equipment needed for a second flight, due to leave Earth in 2018.

:00:54.:00:58.

The main thing the Orbiter will be looking for is methane gas.

:00:59.:01:01.

It is this gas that could show if there

:01:02.:01:04.

It's equipped with tools to sniff out

:01:05.:01:09.

gases from the atmosphere, find water ice, and a camera

:01:10.:01:11.

It also carries a small vehicle, called

:01:12.:01:16.

Schiaparelli, that will land on the planet.

:01:17.:01:18.

This vehicle will enter the atmosphere at over 15,000 mph,

:01:19.:01:23.

a heat shield, parachute and rotars will help to slow it down to walking

:01:24.:01:27.

Schiaparelli is battery powered so will only last a few days

:01:28.:01:34.

on the surface, but it is hoped its weather sensors and camera

:01:35.:01:38.

will be able to get a snapshot of the Martian environment.

:01:39.:01:42.

Scientists think the information sent back may

:01:43.:01:45.

be able to tell us if there was ever life on Mars.

:01:46.:01:50.

Do join us at 8.15, when we'll be finding out what this might mean

:01:51.:01:55.

A primary school teacher from Palestine in the Middle East

:01:56.:02:02.

has been named as the winner of the global teacher prize.

:02:03.:02:04.

Hanan Al Hroub picked up the award for her worked with children

:02:05.:02:07.

who have grown up surrounded by violence.

:02:08.:02:11.

She said she would use the $1 million of prize money

:02:12.:02:15.

to help students and teachers from around the world

:02:16.:02:17.

England are the winners of the Six Nations rugby tournament

:02:18.:02:22.

It's because Scotland beat France for the first time in ten years

:02:23.:02:27.

If England win against France next week they'll have won

:02:28.:02:35.

all of their matches in the tournament.

:02:36.:02:37.

England coach Eddie Jones was pretty pleased.

:02:38.:03:00.

It is obviously nice to win the championship. As a team, we feel we

:03:01.:03:04.

haven't achieved what we want to get, which is the grand slam.

:03:05.:03:05.

To football now and FA Cup holders Arsenal have been knocked out

:03:06.:03:09.

They'll find out who they play in the semi-finals tonight.

:03:10.:03:14.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger was disappointed with the result.

:03:15.:03:16.

Let's give credit to Watford. Maybe we weighed one or two mistakes

:03:17.:03:23.

defensively, they took advantage of that. We put a decent performers in,

:03:24.:03:28.

and I were running comes to an end. It is very sad. We had chances to

:03:29.:03:35.

equalise in the last minute. If desired because we gave everything.

:03:36.:03:40.

Manchester United and West Ham will have to meet again to see

:03:41.:03:42.

which team progresses through to the semi-finals.

:03:43.:03:44.

Feeding the ducks is probably something that most

:03:45.:03:50.

Experts say a campaign to stop people throwing bread into canals,

:03:51.:03:55.

ponds and rivers has been successful, but more needs

:03:56.:03:57.

Bread's bad for ducks and makes the birds flock to the food -

:03:58.:04:01.

it can spread disease and attract pests when it's not eaten.

:04:02.:04:04.

The Canal River Trust want people to replace bread with healthier bird

:04:05.:04:07.

snacks like seeds, fruit and vegetables and even frozen peas!

:04:08.:04:14.

Next, can you imagine if the temperature of how hot

:04:15.:04:16.

or cold it is decided whether you were born a girl

:04:17.:04:19.

Well, that's exactly what happens with turtles.

:04:20.:04:22.

But experts are now worried that rising temperatures could cause

:04:23.:04:25.

We collect eggs from nesting females. We then break those eggs

:04:26.:04:40.

back to incubate them at constant temperatures do find the switch

:04:41.:04:43.

points when they switch from males to females. If it is warmer, there

:04:44.:04:47.

will be more females and the males will die at a greater rate. It is

:04:48.:04:49.

what we call demographic collapse. It is what we call

:04:50.:04:52.

demographic collapse. That's all from me for now -
