:00:07. > :00:10.A very good afternoon to you, you're watching Newsround with me, Joe. On

:00:10. > :00:14.the way, spinning spaceships and drinking wee, could this be how we

:00:14. > :00:19.send humans to Mars? And buggies fit for a prince. We've got your royal

:00:19. > :00:23.designs. But, first, some breaking news about

:00:23. > :00:26.something we all use every day. Money. Following a big row over the

:00:27. > :00:30.lack of women's pictures on our bank notes, the famous author Jane Austen

:00:30. > :00:36.will appear on �10 notes from 2017. Campaigners have described it as a

:00:36. > :00:39.brilliant day for women and a fantastic one for people power.

:00:39. > :00:43.A mission to Mars. Sending a human there is the next big step in

:00:43. > :00:47.exploration but how do you do it? Lots of companies are planning to

:00:47. > :00:50.send people to the red planet at some point but no one's really sure

:00:50. > :00:54.whether the plans will actually work. So, now, a team of top space

:00:54. > :01:01.experts have designed a mission they think could do it. And they've

:01:01. > :01:05.thought of everything! Here's Leah. Could this be what a mission to Mars

:01:05. > :01:10.looks like? These are not real artist retorts and this isn't

:01:10. > :01:12.actually a real spaceship, but it is a similar nation of what one could

:01:12. > :01:18.look like. A team of space scientists from Imperial College

:01:18. > :01:22.London were asked to come up with a plan of how they would send

:01:22. > :01:28.astronauts 34 million miles to Mars and back. And it is full of new

:01:28. > :01:34.ideas Lycra cycling week into drinking water and creating

:01:34. > :01:37.artificial gravity by making the ship spin around. This project comes

:01:37. > :01:42.at a time when space companies are planning their own missions to the

:01:42. > :01:47.red planet and it is the distance that is the real challenge. This

:01:47. > :01:51.model of the solar system which is part of the University of Manchester

:01:51. > :01:55.shows how far the team would have to travel. It would take some nine

:01:55. > :02:00.months to reach just the surface of Mars. The team would face many

:02:00. > :02:05.dangers along the way. One of the main threats is radiation from the

:02:05. > :02:10.sun. The spacecraft would need a shield to protect it from the heat

:02:10. > :02:15.from solar storms. Lending would also be difficult. They would need

:02:15. > :02:20.to make their own fuel to power the flight home. Why bother going at

:02:20. > :02:24.all? Some people think the use of humans is something that is popular

:02:24. > :02:28.and attractive and an adventure from an inspirational point of view but

:02:28. > :02:34.there are also scientific benefits here. We are the most sophisticated

:02:34. > :02:36.computer and robotic living organism you can imagine. This project is

:02:36. > :02:41.only a concept and there are no plans to actually carry out the

:02:41. > :02:43.mission. But with lots of new ideas thrown up, maybe we could see some

:02:43. > :02:50.of them are used for real in the future.

:02:50. > :02:53.Next, the royal baby might not have a name yet. But he has had some

:02:53. > :02:56.special visitors today. The Queen and Prince Harry popped into

:02:56. > :02:59.Kensington Palace to see the latest addition to the Royal Family. The

:02:59. > :03:02.two-day-old Prince left hospital yesterday and is now thought to be

:03:02. > :03:05.in Berkshire visiting his grandparents, the Middletons. On the

:03:05. > :03:07.Newsround website, we've been asking Newsround website, we've been asking

:03:07. > :03:11.you to send in your designs for a you to send in your designs for

:03:11. > :03:14.Shannon from Darlington sent us this fab horse-drawn buggy. T'Siah from

:03:14. > :03:17.Leicestershire has gone for an animal theme with birds and a

:03:17. > :03:20.unicorn pulling the royal buggy. This is Jasmine's moon buggy with

:03:20. > :03:23.moons and stars to help the baby fall asleep. Charlotte from

:03:23. > :03:29.Staffordshire stuck a siren on her buggy so people know when someone

:03:29. > :03:36.important is coming. And Alice sent us this dummy-inspired buggy. Looks

:03:36. > :03:39.pretty big, it's got a door and a pretty big, it's got a door and a

:03:39. > :03:42.window! Thank you for your designs, Now, cast your minds back a year,

:03:42. > :03:46.and the whole country was going Olympics and Paralympics crazy.

:03:46. > :03:49.Today, there's some big news about this guy, one of the stars from

:03:49. > :03:52.Paralympics GB. And not only did Jonnie Peacock win gold at the

:03:52. > :03:55.Paralympic Games, he's now the world champion, too. He out-sprinted his

:03:55. > :03:59.American rival in a time of 10.99 seconds in the IPC World

:03:59. > :04:02.Championships. Well, if that brings back brilliant memories of London

:04:02. > :04:05.2012, you'll love the special programme Newsround has made.

:04:05. > :04:08.Generation Inspiration is about what the Olympic Games meant to kids

:04:08. > :04:18.across the UK. Set your reminders tomorrow afternoon just after

:04:18. > :04:22.Newsround at 4:30pm here on CBBC. Here's a taster. Has London 2012

:04:22. > :04:30.made a difference to kids lives? In this programme, one year on, I'll

:04:30. > :04:34.try to find out. Be meeting the highkicking, freewheeling, BMX

:04:34. > :04:38.riding kids whose lives have been changed forever by the games. I will

:04:38. > :04:45.explore the highest... If I didn't watch the Olympics, I wouldn't be

:04:45. > :04:48.doing this. And the lowest... What legacy? We've seen nothing.To find
