:00:26. > :00:29.Hello and welcome to Newsround, I'm Nell. I'm Leah. Lotdz to get
:00:29. > :00:33.through tonight, including some of this.
:00:33. > :00:37.We find out just how close man came to not making it to the moon.
:00:37. > :00:41.And we tell you who's going where and just what goes on during a
:00:41. > :00:44.frantic last day of football's transfer window.
:00:44. > :00:48.Before all of that, to South Africa, where a group of miners have been
:00:48. > :00:54.charged with the murder of their work mates even though they were
:00:54. > :00:59.actually shot by police. 34 people were killed during violent protests
:00:59. > :01:02.over miners' pay last week. Under an old law, the miners have been
:01:02. > :01:05.blamed and it's causing outrage and the country's top politicians are
:01:05. > :01:09.asking for the decision to be reviewed. This time last week,
:01:09. > :01:13.people across South Africa gathered to mourn. It all started when
:01:14. > :01:16.groups of miners stopped working and started a demonstration. They
:01:16. > :01:21.felt they were not being paid enough for the dangerous job they
:01:21. > :01:27.did. But things got out of hand. Police say the miners charged at
:01:27. > :01:34.them, carrying knives and sticks. The police retaliated by using guns,
:01:34. > :01:37.shooting 34 of the miners dead. But now, things have taken another turn.
:01:37. > :01:41.270 protesters have been arrested, blames for the deaths of fellow
:01:41. > :01:45.workers and charged with murder, even though it was the police who
:01:45. > :01:48.fired the shots. There's been a strong react sthoun the arrests
:01:48. > :01:52.with South Africa's own Justice Minister questioning a decision to
:01:52. > :01:56.charge the protesters. On the streets, the decision's sparked
:01:56. > :02:01.even more anger from people demanding the miners be freed.
:02:01. > :02:04.These are people who were apparently involved in the same
:02:04. > :02:09.demonstration and trade disputes, but they didn't pull the trigger.
:02:09. > :02:13.The South African authorities are trying to shift the blame from the
:02:13. > :02:17.South African authorities themselves on to the protesters and
:02:17. > :02:20.the Trade Unionists. The people behind the arrests, the national
:02:20. > :02:24.prosecuting authority, say they're still going to investigate the
:02:24. > :02:27.police too. But their decision's shocked lots of people causing lots
:02:27. > :02:30.of tension in the country. The Government has demanded an
:02:30. > :02:37.explanation and they say they want to make sure everyone is listened
:02:37. > :02:40.to and treated fairly. Space has fascinated scientists for
:02:40. > :02:45.years and it all started with the original quest to reach the surface
:02:45. > :02:49.of the moon. Today, the first man to manage it is being remembered.
:02:49. > :02:54.Neil Armstrong died on Saturday aged 8 2 and his funeral will be
:02:54. > :02:59.held in his home town of Cincinnati today. So why are his achievements
:02:59. > :03:05.so special? Take a lack at this. He was the first man to ever set
:03:05. > :03:13.foot on the moon. An event watched live on TV by millions of people
:03:13. > :03:18.around the world. One small step for man. One giant
:03:18. > :03:22.step for mankind. Neil Armstrong became an international superstar
:03:22. > :03:26.on his return from Apollo 11 mission in 1969. His defining
:03:26. > :03:31.achievement came very close to not happening at all. Being the first
:03:31. > :03:34.person to land on the moon was pretty astonishing when you
:03:34. > :03:38.consider technology back then was much less advanced than today. The
:03:38. > :03:42.lunar craft they used had lest computer capacity than you would
:03:42. > :03:47.find in an average mobile phone today and even once that limited
:03:47. > :03:51.memory and battery power got them into orbit, Armstrong had to take
:03:51. > :03:56.over manual control of the craft to stop them crashing into a field of
:03:56. > :04:00.massive rocks. When they landed, they had just 17 seconds worth of
:04:00. > :04:10.fuel left. Neil Armstrong's historic journey paved the way for
:04:10. > :04:11.
:04:11. > :04:17.other astronauts to travel to the moon. A man who followed in his
:04:17. > :04:22.footsteps spent hours on the surface. I put the tube in the
:04:22. > :04:25.sample box then it was ready to go home. It's something a handful of
:04:25. > :04:30.people have experienced and however many more make to it the moon now,
:04:30. > :04:33.today the world said goodbye to the only man who can claim to have got
:04:34. > :04:37.there first. Let's bring you the latest on the
:04:37. > :04:42.Paralympics now. It was the first day of action on the track as the
:04:42. > :04:49.Paralympic Stadium re-opened its doors and Aled Davies won Britain's
:04:49. > :04:52.first athletics medal with a bronze in shot put. McGlyn and Scott took
:04:52. > :05:00.silver behind Australia in the visually impaired cycling time
:05:00. > :05:05.trial. At the Aquatics Centre, the Brothers have made it through to
:05:05. > :05:09.the tonight's final of the 300 metres freestyle. Another gold for
:05:09. > :05:14.GB in the velodrome. Colborne triumphs to the individual pursuit,
:05:14. > :05:18.he broke his own world record. It adds to the silver he won yesterday.
:05:18. > :05:23.Some fantastic stuff there. So, it's been a busy day at the
:05:23. > :05:27.Paralympics and it's been just as busy for the fans inside the park
:05:27. > :05:31.too. We went to East London to soak up
:05:31. > :05:35.the party atmosphere. At previous Paralympic host cities,
:05:35. > :05:44.it's fair to say the Paralympics haven't exactly drawn in the crowds.
:05:44. > :05:48.I don't think you can say that about London!
:05:48. > :05:54.What is it like to be here at the Paralympics, sum up the atmosphere?
:05:54. > :06:03.It was absolutely awesome! It was fantastic! I really want to know,
:06:03. > :06:08.what is the atmosphere like in there? Loud. Big. Cool. It's just
:06:08. > :06:12.amazing to see them do it, you know. The signs may have changed but the
:06:12. > :06:18.atmosphere is the same and it's not just the British drawing in these
:06:18. > :06:22.mass you have crowds. Really into it because the things they have to
:06:22. > :06:27.go through. I think they work even harder than the Olympians so in
:06:27. > :06:34.some ways I think they kind of are better than them. It's phenomenal.
:06:34. > :06:39.It's just amazing how with their disabilities they can still perform
:06:39. > :06:43.in the times and records they get. It's just amazing. Today the
:06:43. > :06:48.athletics gets under way inside there, the Paralympic Stadium and
:06:48. > :06:53.if you thought Team GB's Olympic medal haul was impressive, just you
:06:53. > :06:57.wait. Our Olympians are set to do even better -- our paralympians.
:06:57. > :07:01.There's still so much going on in the world and it's going to get
:07:01. > :07:04.crazier tonight. It's the football transfer deadline day and clubs
:07:04. > :07:11.have until 11 tonight to sign the players they want, otherwise
:07:11. > :07:14.they'll have to wait until Jon sw January. Here to explain it all is
:07:14. > :07:19.David, thank you for joining us on the sofa. Let's talk about teals
:07:19. > :07:23.that have been done already? The biggest one so far today is
:07:23. > :07:28.Berbatov moving from Manchester United to Fulham. We think for a
:07:28. > :07:31.fee of about �3 to �5 million on a two-year contract, a great deal for
:07:31. > :07:35.Fulham. Fulham sold him to Manchester United for �30 million a
:07:35. > :07:40.couple of years ago. Charlie Adam's moved from Liverpool to Stoke for
:07:40. > :07:43.�4 million. Very good midfield player. A lot of people know him.
:07:43. > :07:47.We've had Van der Vaart leaving Tottenham to go to Hamburg in
:07:47. > :07:51.Germany and Sinclair from Swansea to Manchester City. So a busy day
:07:51. > :07:56.already. What can we expect to happen until 11pm tonight, a lot
:07:56. > :08:03.more to expect I hope? It's going to get really busy tonight which is
:08:03. > :08:08.exciting for all of us. The main deals we are expecting are possibly
:08:08. > :08:13.Moutinio, a Portuguese midfield player maybe moving to Manchester
:08:13. > :08:16.City and then we've also got the possibility of Clint Dempsey,
:08:16. > :08:21.Fulham player, maybe going to Liverpool, maybe not, so we are not
:08:21. > :08:25.so sure yet. Very quickly, it's a crazy day. What happens behind-the-
:08:25. > :08:29.scenes? It's all going to go crazy because you have players thinking
:08:29. > :08:32.they are moving from one club to another, players, you know, in
:08:32. > :08:36.helicopters, driving up and down the motorway. They could be re-
:08:36. > :08:39.routed, they've got contracts to sign, it's a very busy time for
:08:39. > :08:46.everyone involved. Thank you so much. Thank you. Now,
:08:46. > :08:51.a bit more sports to finish... Kind of. How about a bit of pig racing?
