Good morning.

0:00:050:00:07

I'm Hayley and you've live

with Newsround and all the top

0:00:070:00:09

news stories today.

0:00:090:00:12

How to deal with space junk.

0:00:120:00:15

How these beavers are helping

the environment in Scotland.

0:00:150:00:19

And these daredevil

fliers test their wings.

0:00:190:00:24

This is Newsround.

0:00:240:00:33

First to Donald Trump

and tweets that have

0:00:330:00:35

got people talking.

0:00:350:00:42

President Trump has used his Twitter

account to share three

0:00:420:00:44

anti-Muslim videos from a group

with extreme opinions.

0:00:440:00:49

The group, called Britain First,

is known for its strong

0:00:490:00:51

anti-immigration views.

0:00:510:00:54

One of the videos retweeted

by the American President claims

0:00:540:00:57

to show a Muslim migrant attacking

a man on crutches.

0:00:570:00:59

UK Prime Minister Theresa May's

official spokesperson said

0:00:590:01:01

it was wrong for the President

to have done this.

0:01:010:01:05

Donald Trump has responded by saying

Theresa May should focus

0:01:050:01:08

on terrorism in the UK instead

of criticising him.

0:01:080:01:14

When you've finished with your crisp

0:01:140:01:15

packet or drinks bottle

where does it go?

0:01:150:01:19

In the bin, you might say,

but do you know that a fifth

0:01:190:01:22

of all rubbish that ends up

on our beaches is from our food

0:01:220:01:25

packets that we throw away,

thinking that's the end of it?

0:01:250:01:27

There's been more rubbish found

on beaches this year

0:01:270:01:31

and The Marine Conservation Society

is now calling on the government

0:01:310:01:38

to make us pay more for using

plastic food packet stuffs

0:01:380:01:40

that we only use

once and throw away.

0:01:400:01:42

Forget texting, SnapChatting

or Instagramming your mates.

0:01:420:01:44

These kids in Kidderminster

are going old school.

0:01:440:01:47

"Dear Jasmine.

0:01:470:01:52

Thank you so much for your very

lovely and well-written letter."

0:01:520:01:55

Putting pen to paper.

0:01:550:01:56

These guys are pen

pals with the local

0:01:560:01:58

home for the elderly.

0:01:580:02:02

You get to listen to

what places they have been

0:02:020:02:11

to and what they've been doing

and the cheeky stuff they've done.

0:02:110:02:14

You get to ask all the

questions you really want.

0:02:140:02:16

And most of the time

they answer them.

0:02:160:02:18

So without Snapchat or Instagram,

they are still having fun.

0:02:180:02:22

What do their older pen

pals think about it?

0:02:220:02:25

Enid, I have got your letter

from the school, from

0:02:250:02:27

one of your pen pals called Tilly.

0:02:270:02:29

Shall I read it to you?

0:02:290:02:31

They are lovely, those kids.

0:02:310:02:36

Rhys asks what was

your favourite trip.

0:02:360:02:38

Weston-Super-Mare.

0:02:380:02:41

Up until now it has

just been letters.

0:02:410:02:45

Just before Christmas

they will meet in real life.

0:02:450:02:48

And be able to share

their stories face to face.

0:02:480:02:55

Three beavers have been released

into the wild in Argyll in Scotland.

0:02:550:02:59

It's all part of a pilot

study which has been

0:02:590:03:01

going on for around eight years.

0:03:010:03:03

Before that they hadn't lived

in the wild for 400 years.

0:03:030:03:07

These beavers have come

all the way from Bavaria.

0:03:070:03:12

Just a small number of the animals

can help the environment by creating

0:03:120:03:15

new wetlands and improving woodland.

0:03:150:03:16

Looks like they're settling in well.

0:03:160:03:21

Next, believe it or not,

there's loads of junk floating

0:03:210:03:24

around in space and it can be

a problem for spacecrafts and

0:03:240:03:27

satellites trying to work up there.

0:03:270:03:29

But you can't just get

the vacuum cleaner out!

0:03:290:03:31

I've been finding out

about a spacecraft hoping to give

0:03:310:03:33

the atmosphere a clear-up.

0:03:330:03:40

There are around half a million

pieces of junk in space.

0:03:400:03:44

Bits of old rockets,

satellites that don't work, and even

0:03:440:03:47

things astronauts have dropped.

0:03:470:03:50

Whoops!

0:03:500:03:56

All that rubbish weighs around 7500

tonnes, and that is more

0:03:560:03:59

than the weight of 1000 elephants.

0:03:590:04:00

This space junk can

do serious damage.

0:04:000:04:02

Just a tiny fleck of

paint caused this crack

0:04:020:04:04

on the International Space Station.

0:04:040:04:06

A European satellite that

stopped working years ago

0:04:060:04:08

is still orbiting around earth.

0:04:080:04:09

It is the size of a double-decker

bus and could be a big problem

0:04:090:04:13

for satellites in its path trying

to do their own job.

0:04:130:04:20

But the Remove Debris Spacecraft

could be the answer.

0:04:200:04:25

Next year a team of UK scientists

will test out a harpoon and a net

0:04:250:04:28

to grab floating space junk.

0:04:280:04:34

The rubbish will then burn up as it

gets dragged back towards Earth.

0:04:340:04:37

Good luck with the cleaning.

0:04:370:04:38

Next to a pretty unusal

way to board a plane.

0:04:380:04:41

Vincent Reffet and

Fred Fugen decided

0:04:410:04:47

to enter a flying plane by throwing

themselves off Jungfrau

0:04:470:04:50

Mountain in the Swiss Alps

in a flying suit and jumping

0:04:500:04:52

through the doorway that's only

about the size of me.

0:04:520:04:56

Pretty amazing. Don't try that next

time you want to go on holiday!
