Evening, guys, Ayshah here. First up, how did the universe

start? It's a huge question and one that scientists have spent years

trying to answer. Now a group of American scientists think they have

found evidence that could help us find out how it all began. Nel's got

more. It's one of the biggest questions

ever: how did the universe begin? Well, one idea is the big-bang

theory, a massive explosion that occurred almost 14 billion years ago

which created the universe. Some scientists think this bang was so

big that the universe expanded very quickly, stretching and squeezing

space as it grew and putting a twist on the light created at that moment.

This particular discovery was made by scientists in America using a

telescope based in the South Pole, where the skies are crystal clear.

They discovered a pattern seen in what we call the fading glow of the

big bang. It's the leftover light from the big bang itself. And by

looking at it very carefully, they've been able to see this

pattern in it that gives away what was happening in the universe just a

trillionth of a trillionth of a trillionth of a second after the

universe began itself right at the time of the Big Bang. What does this

mean for scientists like yourself? This is perhaps the first bit of

evidence that may well show that we really do understand where the

universe came from. The big-bang theory is just one of many ideas

about how the universe came into being, and there are still lots of

questions to be answered about this one. But scientists hope it could be

a step in answering one of the biggest questions of all time.

In just under an hour, Chelsea will face their old striker Didier Drogba

when they play Galatasaray in the second leg of their last-16

Champions League tie. The Blues drew 1-1 in the first leg and will want

to avoid being the third English team to be knocked out at this stage

of the competition. Now, do you recognise the man in the

middle? Well, it's David Beckham, dressed up for his new role, a

special appearance in a comedy show your parents probably watched. It's

called Only Fools And Horses, and he's doing it for Sport Relief.

Here's a sneaky preview. And if I asked you to go out into the High

Street wearing a sarong, would you? Well...

Now, before I go, the engine sound in this clip is pretty loud. Now,

this is much quieter. The first was a Formula One car from last season

and the second from this season. Some people complained that the new

engines are too quiet and spoil the racing atmosphere, so there are

plans to bring in noisier engines. Head over to the Newsround website

to find out more. That's all from me for now. Good

night, guys.
