 Well thank those same junior students for introducing today's show. Thanks to all of you for staying with us for the next 10 minutes. I'm Karl Azuas, welcome to CNN students news. 


First up, tension on the Korean Peninsular. Part of it has to do with the possiblity of the upcoming nuclear test. North Korea has held these two contravercial tests before. Now South Korean officals say the North is getting ready to run another one. US officials agree with that information although North Korea hasn't said anything about nuclear test. What the North is talking about is the separate rocket launch scheduled for later this week. CNN Stan Grand was invited to get an upclose look at the rocket. He explains why there is some contraversy surrounding this launch too. 
This is what North Korea has been keeping hidden from the world. Not any more. A long-range rocket, 30 meters long or near 100 feet, that much of the world suspects will launch the next phase of the exclusive country's missile program. North Korea insists there is nothing to fear. Not a missile test, but in face to satellite launch for scientific research. To prove it they've taken a press date to step, openning up the launch site to the eyes of the international media. Pyongyang is also represents the propaganda too. In the year the country celebrates the 100th anniversya of the birth the founder 1 Kim Il-sung. 
This is to prove the moment the North Korean people struggle to open the gate to report birth and powerful future this May.
But the United States and its allies see it very differently. A country is still technically 2 at war taking yet another step cloers to perfecting a missile, that expert says, could reach American shores.  
I'm very disturbed. He can, can deny that, if you look from yourselves, radio all nights then you can judge whether it's a blasting missile or whether it's a launch vehicle to put a satellite in...That's why we've invited you to this launch site. 
We certainly give the grand tour today shown all around the site the control center, even the actual satellite that will be launched into the space on the rocket. One independent European analyst 3 visiting the site says he sees nothing to be concerned about, but..
I don't know what they want to do in future, but today what we see is a space on trial.  
Note day for you now. A neighborhood watch shooting in Florida. In February 17-year-old Trayvon Martin was shot and killed by Georgory Zimmenmen a neighborhood watch leader. Police say Martin was unarmed. Zimmenmen says he shot Marin in self-defense after the teenager attacked him.  We have a vedio in the spotlight 4 section of our homepage with more details on the shooting. A special prosecutor 5 has been investigating this case. She adds three options, a possible action, she could charge Georgory Zimmenmen with a crime. She could clear any wrongdoing, or she could send the case to the grand jury. As a group that hears evidence and testimony 6 from witnesses and decides whether a case should go to a trial. 
We found that yesterday the option 3 won't happen. This special prosecutor says she won't use a grand jury. She had that the decision doesn't mean things are final. The investigation 7 will go on. The story has been an emotional one. It's led protesters cross the country like this in Sanford Florida where the shooting happened.  The story is also left people with a lot of questions, including you. We ask, what was on your mind? What questions you have when you heard about the story. 
Alisa asks whether the government media civil rights activists 8 and citizens jumping to conclusions so quickly about what happened without actually knowing all the facts.  Ritick asks could a teenager really be dangerous to a man who has a weapon?  From Mark what would it happen if their races were different? Would there still be protests or news coverage 9? And from Shinna, why is this type of incident just now being brought to people's attention, things like this happen all the time. Does America care  or know about those incidents? 
A lot of things unanswered at this point. We're going to bring you news update as we get them. Meantime if you want to share your sauce, CNNstudentsnews.com.
