think so. it is a very different planners in a very different part of the solar system. you should be excited because this gives us an opportunity to try to complete the family album. find out more about all the different rocky planets in the server system which could tell us more about planets further away from us in other solar systems. tt from us in other solar systems. it has been a pleasure. thank you. thank you. the volcano that has been erupting for the past 11 days on the island of la palma is spewing out to the new streams of lava. the river of red hot lava has been snaking down hill from a new event raising fears of further disruption. many homes and crops have been destroyed and thousands of people had to evacuate since the eruption first began last month. we are going to catch up with the weather. there may be reined in going into the far south—east of england overnight and for the northern isles were here we see the windies where they go into tomorrow morning. a set than gusts of 70 mph can be expected. showers overnight and mostly in the west. it is coldest in the north of scotland. a touch of frost yet attempt is for close to freezing. many of tomorrow will start the day dry with some sunshine. there will be showers from the word go in the west. some of these heavy and may be a rumble of thunder and they will tend to migrate a little further east as we go on to the day. dodging a few downpours and longer spells of rain still around northern scotland. it will be a windy day. these average speeds we can expect them gusts in the range of 35—45 mph and it
