:02:25. > :02:32.Iraq's invaders, the US and Britain, removed a hated dictator

:03:19. > :03:27.So-called Islamic State grew out of Al-Qaeda which took root in Iraq

:05:43. > :05:50.It hopes to uncover answers to some of Jupiter's mysteries,

:05:51. > :05:52.including the influence it had on the formation of planet Earth

:06:18. > :06:21.journey through space, Juno is the closest we have ever

:06:22. > :06:25.So we prepared a contingency communications procedure,

:06:26. > :06:39.Over the next 20 months Juno will complete 37 orbits.

:06:40. > :06:42.Skirting just over the top of Jupiter's thick atmosphere,

:07:29. > :07:35.Jupiter's intense magnetic field generates bands of deadly radiation.

:07:36. > :07:39.As the spacecraft flies through them it will experience the equivalent

:07:40. > :07:47.Jupiter's just lit up with a spectacular aurora.

:08:54. > :08:54.and photos from his extraordinary life.

:09:00. > :09:00.Almost 70 years after his death, he is

:09:01. > :09:03.still the world's most famous and best loved baseball player.

:09:04. > :09:05.But this tiny exhibition at the National Portrait

:09:06. > :09:07.Gallery offers a more intimate look at the legend.

:09:08. > :09:11.This family snap shows Babe Ruth with his wife and a toddler

:09:12. > :09:15.In fact, the child was Babe Ruth's daughter with another woman.

:09:28. > :09:30.He spent time with children in particular and

:09:31. > :09:33.despite his fame, remained open and accessible to all his fans.
