Good morning, you're waking up with Newsround - | 0:00:04 | 0:00:06 | |
Ricky here with Wednesday's top stories. | 0:00:06 | 0:00:08 | |
On the way... | 0:00:08 | 0:00:09 | |
The mother of all ships comes home to Portsmouth. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:11 | |
And... | 0:00:11 | 0:00:14 | |
The countdown is on for the great American solar eclipse. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:24 | |
The largest warship ever built for the Royal Navy has arrived | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
at its new home in Portsmouth for the first time this morning. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:37 | |
The aircraft carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth cost | 0:00:37 | 0:00:38 | |
?3 billion, weighs 65,000 tonnes | 0:00:38 | 0:00:39 | |
and is as high as Nelson's column. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
But she won't have any aircraft on board until flying trials | 0:00:41 | 0:00:44 | |
are carried out next year. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:51 | |
Next up, the countdown is on for the great American solar | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
eclipse, which happens on August 21st across 14 US states. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:59 | |
It's the first time a total solar eclipse has happened | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
in America in decades. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
Here's Whitney to explain. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:07 | |
There's three key players in the solar system - | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
the sun, the moon, and, of course, the earth | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
which we live on. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:15 | |
Now, on a normal afternoon, the sun shines on the earth. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:20 | |
This means it's bright during the day. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:23 | |
And as the earth turns around at night, it makes | 0:01:23 | 0:01:25 | |
everything go dark. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
But on the afternoon of Monday 21st August, | 0:01:28 | 0:01:31 | |
something different will happen. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
The moon will come between the earth and the sun. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:36 | |
The moon will block out the sun rays, which will cast a shadow over | 0:01:36 | 0:01:40 | |
the United States of America. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:43 | |
This will create a total solar eclipse. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
It will happen over 14 states in the US, | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
from the west to the east coast, in the middle of the day. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:52 | |
It's a big deal because there hasn't been one there in 38 years. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:56 | |
And one like this, which goes from coast to coast, | 0:01:56 | 0:02:03 | |
hasn't happened in nearly 100 years. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
Wowzer! | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
Millions of people are expected to watch it in the US | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
and they will be making sure they wear their special protective | 0:02:09 | 0:02:13 | |
glasses before looking up. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
But don't feel left out - we will be able to see a small part | 0:02:16 | 0:02:20 | |
of the moon covering the sun from the UK. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:24 | |
And, of course, we'll be showing you exactly what's happening | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
in America here on Newsround. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:32 | |
And don't forget there is LOADS more info about the solar eclipse over | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
at Newsround online. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:38 | |
Let's get a quick sport update for you this morning. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
Liverpool are on the verge of the Champions League group | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
stages, thanks to an amazing free kick by their 18-year-old right | 0:02:43 | 0:02:47 | |
back, Trent Alexander-Arnold. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:48 | |
Liverpool had plenty of chances, but it was late in the game before | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
James Milner's deflected cross made it two. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
Hoffenheim still have a chance after they also scored a goal. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
The second leg is at Anfield next Tuesday. | 0:02:57 | 0:03:01 | |
Celtic play Astana in the first leg of their qualifying match | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
tie in Glasgow tonight. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
In Scotland Celtic are unbeaten in 50 games and knocked Astana out | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
of the Champions League last season. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:14 | |
And Johanna Konta's into the third round of the Cincinatti Open. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
The British number one beat Kiki Bertens of | 0:03:17 | 0:03:19 | |
the Netherlands in straight sets. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:25 | |
Now, to a country with lots of secrets, where children find it | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
impossible to go online, and getting information about what's | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
going on in the world is really difficult. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:33 | |
North Korea is in the news because of the arguments its government | 0:03:33 | 0:03:36 | |
is having with America. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
So what is life like for children there? | 0:03:39 | 0:03:41 | |
Ayshah's been investigating. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:47 | |
This is what children in North Korea are watching at the moment. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:58 | |
It's a cartoon about a big fierce tiger getting beaten | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
by a small spiky hedgehog. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:04 | |
It was made by the North Korean government for children to watch. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:07 | |
It seems that the message they want to send to kids | 0:04:07 | 0:04:11 | |
is that the orange tiger is America and the brave hedgehog | 0:04:11 | 0:04:13 | |
is North Korea. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:16 | |
They want children to believe that their country is brave | 0:04:16 | 0:04:19 | |
and clever and that America is a nasty bully. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:23 | |
The leader of North Korea, Kim Jong-Un, controls all of this - | 0:04:23 | 0:04:27 | |
what children can see, what they hear and | 0:04:27 | 0:04:32 | |
what they can say. | 0:04:32 | 0:04:33 | |
Because North Korea is such a secret place, it's hard to know | 0:04:33 | 0:04:37 | |
what children living there think of cartoons like this. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
But we can find out some things about their lives. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:43 | |
At school, pupils are taught a lot about their leader. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:49 | |
From an early age, they are told he is wonderful | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
and should always be praised. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:55 | |
And at the age of ten, all kids have to join | 0:04:57 | 0:05:00 | |
the Children's Union, where they sing songs about how | 0:05:00 | 0:05:02 | |
great the leader is. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:04 | |
And we know that life is hard for many children in North Korea - | 0:05:04 | 0:05:08 | |
last year, a report by the United Nations said that | 0:05:08 | 0:05:11 | |
many children weren't getting the food they need. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:19 | |
And although we know some things, we still don't know | 0:05:19 | 0:05:21 | |
what North Korean children really think about the leader | 0:05:21 | 0:05:23 | |
of this mysterious country. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
And if you want to understand more about North Korea, | 0:05:31 | 0:05:34 | |
there's a Newsround guide online. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:36 | |
Now, do you ever get your sports mixed up? | 0:05:36 | 0:05:38 | |
This cricketer thinks he's a footballer - watch this. | 0:05:38 | 0:05:41 | |
This is Derbyshire's Hardus Viljoen, a South African fast bowler who's | 0:05:41 | 0:05:45 | |
also a good passer with his feet - which he used to run out | 0:05:45 | 0:05:49 | |
Durham's Michael Richardson. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:51 | |
It's totally allowed - just pretty unusual! | 0:05:51 | 0:05:54 | |
That's all from me, Newsround's back at 4.20 - have a great day! | 0:05:54 | 0:05:57 | |
