More than 470 people have been named in this year's Queen's Birthday Honors List.

Japanese scientists have located the space capsule Hayabusa after a helicopter search over Woomera in northwest South Australia. The capsule was launched in 2003 and successfully re-entered the earth's atmosphere overnight, creating a spectacular fireball across the desert sky. Scientists will try to recover the capsule to see if it contains asteroid 2 samples. It's hoped the samples could lead to further discoveries about the solar system.

Kyrgyzstan's government has imposed a 24-hour curfew in the southern city of Osh and two neighbouring districts. The Health Ministry 4 says at least 97 people have been killed and more than 1,200 have been wounded.


And at least 12 people have been killed and 22 others wounded during a bomb attack on the country's central bank in Baghdad.
