1. Cooking has reached higher levels. Astronauts in space have made the first space-baked cookies. They said the chocolate chip cookies looked out of this world. They are the first food to be baked in space from raw ingredients. Space food is usually made on Earth. It is pre-packaged and then heated up in space. Eating freshly baked food will make astronauts happy. It will remind them of home. This is important for astronauts who go to the moon or Mars.

The first cookie - baked for 25 minutes - was undercooked, but the second - baked for 75 minutes - released a fresh scent in the ISS.

The fourth and fifth cookies - one baked for 120 minutes and left to cool for 25 minutes, and the other baked for 130 minutes and left to cool for 10 minutes - were deemed to be the most successful.

How to say 'Hi' to Harry and Meghan, according to an etiquette expert

Bow, curtsy, maybe even shake hands — but never tap them on the shoulder

If British Columbians happen to spot the much-talked-about Duke and Duchess of Sussex, treat them like cats: let them come to you.

Vancouver etiquette expert Elizabeth Burnett says it's important not to approach them.

"I would wait for them to attend to me," Burnett told Kathryn Marlow, guest host of CBC's All Point West. "I wouldn't just go up and tap him on the shoulder and say, 'Oh, hello, Harry, how are you?'"

"We have to remember that Harry will always be royal," she added. "It's in his blood."

It was late last year that we started to hear reports about a new virus that had infected some people in the Chinese city of Wuhan. They reckon it might have started in this market where there was a lot of raw meat and animals. Pretty quickly it started to spread, some people died and the news reports about coronavirus got more serious and regular.

So why are people so worried? ... Although most people who've caught this coronavirus have recovered. The real concern is how fast this one is spreading.

There have now been more than 40,000 confirmed cases. Most of those have been in China. But the virus has now been found in at least 25 countries and some are worried about it spreading even further. To try and stop that from happening the World Health Organisation has declared a global health emergency. Which is basically a way of encouraging governments around the world to take this seriously and do what they can to stop it.

Back here in Australia there's only been around a dozen cases of coronavirus but it's still having a big effect on a lot of people. Aussies who were stuck in Wuhan have been sent to Christmas Island for two weeks so authorities can check they're not sick.

The government has also banned Chinese people who aren't citizens or permanent residents from coming into the country. That's hurting a lot of businesses that rely on Chinese visitors. It's also hard for international students who are missing class time and families who are being kept apart. But the government says it's about keeping people safe.

SCOTT MORRISON, PRIME MINISTER OF AUSTRALIA: I want to assure Australians that we are doing everything that we can, and through these actions to protect Australia from what is an escalating threat and a constantly changing situation.

It all sounds pretty intense, right? But don't worry too much. Experts say there's no need to panic. Your chances of getting coronavirus are really low and like we said most people who get it get better. The best way to protect yourself is to do things you should do anyway like covering your mouth when you cough and washing your hands regularly. Meanwhile, scientists are working hard to develop a vaccine and hopefully, it won't be too long before coronavirus isn't in the news so much.
