Good afternoon! You're watching Newsround with me, Ricky. Coming up:

:00:21.:00:24.

The world's most powerful camera blasts off on a star-spotting

:00:25.:00:27.

mission. And the school trying to break a Nativity record. But did

:00:28.:00:31.

they make it? This is Newsround. First, details of private voicemail

:00:32.:00:33.

messages from Prince William to Kate Middleton before they were married

:00:34.:00:37.

have been read out in court. It happened during a court case where

:00:38.:00:40.

former newspaper bosses from the News of the World are accused of

:00:41.:00:43.

illegally listening into people's phone messages to try and get

:00:44.:00:46.

stories about them. The paper has now closed down. The two editors,

:00:47.:00:49.

along with five others, say they didn't do it, and the trial is still

:00:50.:00:53.

going on. The BBC's Robin Brant is outside the court in London. Kate

:00:54.:00:56.

Middleton had her phone hacked, according to lawyers at the trial.

:00:57.:00:59.

It happened in 2006. The jury heard message left by Prince William, her

:01:00.:01:04.

then boyfriend, in one, he refers to her as baby and there were four

:01:05.:01:10.

messages read out and they also heard how Prince Harry had his phone

:01:11.:01:14.

hacked and one message, we don't know who it was, although the News

:01:15.:01:18.

of the World said it was Prince William, a jokey message, pretending

:01:19.:01:25.

to be his then girlfriend. The Prime Minister David Cameron has welcomed

:01:26.:01:28.

the guilty verdicts given out to two men who murdered a soldier in

:01:29.:01:31.

London. Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale attacked Lee Rigby

:01:32.:01:34.

outside an army barracks in May, in a crime that shocked the country.

:01:35.:01:37.

The court heard they'd gone out deliberately looking for a soldier.

:01:38.:01:40.

The two men will be sentenced next month. Lee Rigby's family said that

:01:41.:01:46.

justice has been done. This was a very rare event and if you're

:01:47.:01:49.

worried or upset by anything you hear in the news, there's advice and

:01:50.:01:54.

info on the Newsround website. Now was it stormy where you were last

:01:55.:01:58.

night? Well, just as the clear up starts after all that heavy rain and

:01:59.:02:01.

strong wind, forecasters say the storms will be back for some of us

:02:02.:02:05.

tonight. Thousands of families were left without power, chimneys were

:02:06.:02:08.

blown down, roads were flooded in Wales and the south west of England

:02:09.:02:12.

and the search is still on for a sailor who fell overboard on the

:02:13.:02:17.

River Trent in North Lincolnshire. Football matches were affected too.

:02:18.:02:21.

Hail disrupted Stoke's match against Manchester United. And rain

:02:22.:02:23.

waterlogged Sheffield Wednesday's pitch, forcing its game against

:02:24.:02:26.

Wigan to be abandoned. Some of you have been sending us your stories

:02:27.:02:35.

from across the country. Last night my parents heard a crash and we woke

:02:36.:02:42.

up and found out the greenhouse had fallen over. It was freaky, all I

:02:43.:02:47.

could hear was wind and rain. It felt like a giant had took my house

:02:48.:02:53.

and shaken it. All we could see was horizontal rain going to the left. I

:02:54.:02:58.

was scared. I thought it Wurz going to be a flood and we couldn't get to

:02:59.:03:04.

school. ??FORCEWHITE So how long is this windy, stormy weather going to

:03:05.:03:07.

last? We asked BBC weatherman Simon King. It will become more windy

:03:08.:03:12.

again tomorrow night into Saturday morning. Some strong winds and heavy

:03:13.:03:16.

rain. It will continue into Christmas as well and we will see

:03:17.:03:22.

another bout of stormy conditions on Monday into Christmas Eve. That may

:03:23.:03:29.

last into Christmas Day. Next, a telescope with a camera so powerful

:03:30.:03:32.

it can see a human hair 1,000 miles away has blasted off into space. The

:03:33.:03:36.

Gaia telescope will spend five years taking photographs of more than a

:03:37.:03:39.

billion stars in the Milky Way. It's hoped it'll throw out new info about

:03:40.:03:43.

things like black holes and mysterious dark matter, and even

:03:44.:03:46.

find things in the galaxy that we didn't know were there! One space

:03:47.:03:49.

scientist told Nel why it's all so exciting. It is going to be looking

:03:50.:03:59.

at a billion different stars in the sky and that is a colossal number.

:04:00.:04:05.

If you were to try and count to a billion, it would take 32 years. It

:04:06.:04:09.

will take five years of being able to look at a billion stars and how

:04:10.:04:14.

they move and how big they are and working that into our scientific

:04:15.:04:20.

understanding of how they came to be and where they sit in the glabgs y.

:04:21.:04:23.

It is the only place in the universe that we could have sent it and that

:04:24.:04:29.

is where it is going. Next, a school in Yorkshire is hoping to break the

:04:30.:04:32.

World Record for the largest living nativity scene ever. Mary and Joseph

:04:33.:04:35.

were joined by hundreds of shepherds, sheep, wise men and

:04:36.:04:39.

donkeys. They had to beat the current record which stands at 845

:04:40.:04:43.

and they did with the help of 892 festive performers and just one baby

:04:44.:04:51.
