Hi guys. Live with the Newsround with amazing stuff. On the way:

:00:00.:00:15.

Behind the scenes of Dr Who's 5th anniversary show. The robot that

:00:16.:00:22.

herds cattle. This is Newsround. -- 5th anniversary show.

:00:23.:00:28.

First to Mars. We know it as the Red Planet. Scientists think it could

:00:29.:00:34.

once have been more like earth. In the next couple of hours NASA will

:00:35.:00:39.

launch Maven, with I will try and find out what the planet used to be

:00:40.:00:41.

like and why everything changed. This is what scientists thing Mars

:00:42.:00:53.

could have looked like during the first one billion years of its

:00:54.:00:57.

existence. There are clouds, lakes filled with water and it is believed

:00:58.:01:04.

the planet had a thick protective atmospheric layer. In fact, it all

:01:05.:01:08.

looks a bit like earth. Something happened which changed the planet

:01:09.:01:13.

into the dusty, red one we recognise today. Water was abundant. On early

:01:14.:01:20.

Mars the environment was something capable of supporting water. Today,

:01:21.:01:24.

we see a cold, dry planet which is not able to support water. We want

:01:25.:01:29.

to understand the reason for the change in the climate. So the early

:01:30.:01:33.

atmosphere is thought to be like earth - with a layer of gases

:01:34.:01:39.

helping to keep the temperature at the right level for life. We are

:01:40.:01:44.

protected from radiation, which could damage us. Should we be

:01:45.:01:47.

worried that what happened on Mars could happen here on earth? Mars is

:01:48.:01:51.

much smaller than earth. Earth is big. We have a hot interior which

:01:52.:01:57.

produces a magnet tick shield. I think the fact we are on such a big

:01:58.:02:02.

planet and have a magnetic shield protecting the atmosphere, I think

:02:03.:02:07.

we'll be fine. We will not lose our atmosphere any time soon like Mars

:02:08.:02:10.

did four billion years ago. The probe, called Maven l take ten

:02:11.:02:19.

months to get oh -- Maven will take ten months to get to Mars. It is

:02:20.:02:23.

hoped it will solve the mystery of the Red Planet. Next, aid from the

:02:24.:02:27.

UK has started to radio even the Philippines after the -- started to

:02:28.:02:32.

reach the Philippines after the devastation of Typhoon Haiyan. A

:02:33.:02:36.

plane left the East Midlands airport last night. HMS Daring arrived this

:02:37.:02:41.

weekend, carrying a helicopter to help reach remote areas. Here are

:02:42.:02:46.

some of the pictures it has taken. It is thought around 2.5 million

:02:47.:02:51.

people need food aid. Head online to read our special diary, written by

:02:52.:02:57.

an aid worker in the Philippines. Dr Who's big 5th anniversary -- 5th

:02:58.:03:05.

anniversary show is on the way this weekend -- 50th anniversary show is

:03:06.:03:10.

on the way this weekend. OK, so I have my hands on the recipe for a

:03:11.:03:16.

perfect Dr Who episode. A handful of aliens - the scary, the better. Add

:03:17.:03:22.

in a doctor or two, or even three! Simple!

:03:23.:03:27.

We have been waiting for the 50th anniversary episode for ages.

:03:28.:03:30.

Luckily we got our hands on some footage from behind the scenes. It

:03:31.:03:37.

has been thrilling to make. I think there's something extraordinary

:03:38.:03:40.

about the doctors meeting, which is gra just great fun -- - just great

:03:41.:03:46.

fun to act in. There is a different Tardis, another

:03:47.:03:51.

doctor and all that. It was completely different. Yet weirdly

:03:52.:03:58.

familiar. Lovely to be back! The full details of the plot are

:03:59.:04:03.

still under wraps. Expectations are high.

:04:04.:04:07.

It promises to be an episode which celebrates the show's past as well

:04:08.:04:16.

as looking to the future. Thanks for that. From Dr Who to Dr

:04:17.:04:24.

You. We want your own tributes to Dr Who. Maybe you want to act out your

:04:25.:04:31.

favourite scene. Here is some inspiration from seven-year-old

:04:32.:04:38.

Dylan. Wlaefr your idea, head to the -- whatever your idea, head to the

:04:39.:04:43.

website. We will play the best ones on Friday. Cattle herders could soon

:04:44.:04:48.

be out of a job because Australian scientists have developed a robot to

:04:49.:04:55.

round up cows. It has been a big hit with farmers. It collects

:04:56.:05:00.

information about soil and fencing. That is all from me

:05:01.:05:01.
