but soon astronaut scott kelly will be back on earth. coming up, what is the first thing he will have to do before getting a chance to go home. we'll tell you. >> tom: he looks like a muscled-up dude. i'm fascinated to see if he can walk when he gets off the space station. no rain at all tonight. we're dry and we're going to have more sunshine tomorrow. we will have a little fly in the ointment with the fog. >> lisa: you have likely seen in 1934, steak 'n shake decided the world didn't need another hamburger. it needed a steakburger. so they used 100 percent beef. quick seared to seal in the flavor ... ... you'll only get from a steakburger. steak 'n shake, >> lisa: tonight we're going to meet a guy who some know as bob. you see all the construction every time you drive on i-4. >> matt: false advertising, though. says it's not his name. one of the biggest names you'll see all over a lot of the equipment, bob's barricades. so anchor ginger gadsden wanted to know if there's a real bob. >> ginger: didn't you all want to know if there's a bo

places on earth." places on earth." queensland, known as the sunshine state, borders the brilliant coral sea. more than 4.5 million people live here, most along the coast, which is why queensland is also called surfer's paradise, and it may be queensland's best kept secret. not for long. the gold coast, just a short 58 miles south of brisbane, has many of the best beaches in the world. it's also home to the hinterlands, a lush subtropical rain forest along the edge of an old volcano. take a bush walk on these incredible scenic trails, dine a la fresco at one of hundreds of cafes and restaurants, or spend a day at some of the gold coast's many zoos and sanctuaries, truly the best in the southern hemisphere. it's called k'gari by the aboriginal people, meaning beautiful fraser island is the world's largest sand island. over 75 miles of white, uninterrupted beaches, ancient rain forests, giant coastal dunes, and brilliant wild flowers, and freshwater lakes. the sand under your feet could be over 750,000 years old, remnants

this is the only major country on earth where that course. and as i said, one of the very few countries in the entire world. poor countries make sure that moms can stay home with their babies. and what happens if today you get a phone call that your kid is sick? and you need to go home. are you guaranteed the right to stay home? or maybe spend time with your dad maybe dealing with alzheimer's. this country, only major county that does not allow that. there is legislation now in the house and the senate, supported strongly by many democrats, and by me. which guarantees family -- paid family and medical leave for three months at two-thirds pay with a cap. it will cost the average worker in america an increase in payroll tax of $1.61 a week. i think that that is a good investment. and as president i will fight to have the united states join the rest of the industrialized world and guarantee paid family and medical leave for our working families. [ applause ] when i go around the country, what i find is there is a real anger and a frustration. an

scientific feats of the age. [ beeping ] >> those eerie beeps from high above the earth set off the great space race between russia and the united states. and while the soviets were the first to send a man into space, america was the first to land a man on the moon. >> it's one small step for man... [ slow orchestral music plays ] >> in 1981, nasa built the first reusable manned rocket ship, officially called the space transportation system. we know it as the space shuttle. during their 30 years in service, these amazing craft flew 135 missions. watching the giant orbiter glide back to earth was always a thrilling sight. >> main gear touchdown. >> the european space agency got late into the rocket game, but in 2014, they were able to land the robotic explorer philae on a speeding comet. >> we are sitting on the surface. philae's talking to us. more data to come.
