20
It's the atomic number of calcium, the bill that features the face of Andrew Jackson, the number of units in a score, the number of faces in an icosahedron, the Super Bowl when the Chicago Bears defeated the New England Patriots...and the number of years that CNN Student News has been on the air.
We'd love to know what stands out to you the most from Friday's show - and what you think the world will be like 20 years from now!
Carl Azuz, Anchor
techology wise more uptedated, history wise, can create the footstepsof more people that 10000 years ago, but has long as we try to be the top, there will be always be war, and the develping countrys will be always at war never at peace until they come a delep
Happy 20th Birthday!!! Whooo~~
Btw, I love your interview with Brian Todd, I think he's great, too~ XD
Happy birthday CNN Student News! Considering I haven't been alive for 20 years it's a pretty big deal. I have always liked CNN Student News. Some of my fav shows are the jet pack, and electronic book maker. Anyway, HAPPY BIRTHDAY CNN STUDENT NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
20 years from now i think the world will be different. i expect that the ecnomy will be much stronger, there will be less wars happening each year, and al kihda will be no more. the thing stood out to me on Fridays news is that the slide show of the 20 years of cnn. it just shows how cnn progressed in giving people the best news you can get.
I think the show will be the same but a lot better and more updated and high tech. It might be the same people, it might not, but it will still be the same old but better CNN Student News.
The world is obviosly going to be very different. It will probably be more Hi-tech with more devices nobody would even think of making! It will be very cool, but probably more polluted and there will be more energy used to hurt or enviroment.
i think that the whole world will be much different because their is going to be new things coming out and their is going to be new presidents who will change the world
i think 20 years from now our world willl have crazy technoligy and we will have many things that we dont have today
I think that it is really cool to be at 20 years of CNN Student news. They have been showing all the news topics that’s occurred for kids. I watch that show all the time. I would like to say congratulation to Carl Azuz.
I think that it is great that cnn student news has acomplished 20 years of showing kids what is out there. What really stood out is the main events, the bad, the good, the impossible, i mean cloning, thats cool! I think that 20 years from now if cnn student news continues doing well, headlines will be the new phones, technology, presidents, ect. Keep doing well cnn! And happy 20 years of on the air!
happy 20 years of cnn. i thin it was nice of the students at the school to celebrate with you the 20 years of the show. so i say to you happy 20th anniversery.
The question was lame. I thought the count back in time was pretty cool.
i think it is cool that they do this every 20 years and i would like to be part of it someday
the question was not fair. i think it we will have robots that help us out at home the cars will drive us every where
What stands out to me the most was the scene from the first world trade bombing. It was kind of weird seeing that and then knowing that those people did not know the next one was coming, none of us did. I do have to say that my least favorite was the trick question 🙂 My class was very upset that there was not at least a non of the above option. In 20 years from now I hope I have a really cool flying car and that Texas is it's own country by then, just kidding. Go Monarchs.
HAPPY 20TH ANNIVERSARY. I ENJOYED THE SHOW.
The thing that stands out the most in my opinion is your corny jokes and i also think in the next 20 years i'll be in an apartment, a fair amount of money and a nice job.
We love Student News! WE hope it will come on another 20 years from now!!!!!!!! In 20 years we will pobably have hover cars or something
The anniversary stood out the most. And 20 years from now i think we will still be cleaning up Obamas mess that he is making right now.
thats crazy alot of things.The friday shows are most interseting.
i loved the news about bill and andrew jakson
and i think mexicans will be the biggest population
Congragulations on the 20 year birthday! In 20 years they will hopefully stop global warming and the the earth will be a better place.
20 years from now I would like you to tell more about the presinet of that time
Something that stands out the most is how alot has changed in the years that have past.
I think if we the people stand together to help one one another out i think that we will be able to find out more cures for medical problems, lighten up global warming, and to help all those in need such as homeless or hungry people.
I loved the news about the bill and andrew jackson!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think Obama is going to ruin all of the hardworking peoples lives. He will give all of our money to lazy people
20 years from now would be weird and alot different.
I think Obama is going to ruin all of the hardworking peoples lives. He will give all of our money to lazy people you know it is true
hi carl ur the best host ever our history teacher mr.Wilkinson loves ur hosting and ur puns
There will be more different kinds of computers, more medications, and more schools.
I think the news was very interesting. Something that definetly stood out was when they showed every year. I can't believe how much changed.
20 years from now we will be a lot different
I cant beleive cnn student news has been around so long.
I think 20 years of cnn student news is amazing.I enjoy watching it.I think cnn in 20 years will be more interesting and more things in the world will happen and you will have more to tell on cnn.You will also be able to give more details so you can understand more things on whats happening in the world.
I think if we the people stand together to help one one another out i think that we will be able to find out more cures for medical problems, lighten up global warming, and to help all those in need such as homeless or hungry people.I think that what poped out the most was the flood recovery
Friday news is most interesting. I think that in 20 years the world will be worse.
HAPPY 20TH BIRTHDAY CNN NEWS!!
I LIKED WATCHING OLD NEWS REPORTS FROM 20 DECADES AGO.
THE WORLD WILL BE MUCH DIFFERENT IN 20 YEARS.
I WONDER WHAT IT WAS LIKE 20 YEARS AGO BUT I WOULD REALLY NEVER KNOW. IT SEEMED A LITTLE SCARY, TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH. I LOVE CNN NEWS AND I LOVE WATCHING ALL THE NEWS REPORTS!!
The story that got my intention was the vidieo that had the most intresting stories for twenty years.I think We will be better in economy and polution . we may have more electronics and inventions to help us.
I think the money will lower alot in 20 years
The wolrd would be like a land of sadness. The only reason I say this is because we need to start to take care of our plant. If we do little things now then we can save that from happening. Then the world would be like a land of happieness.
The most thing that stands out in Fridays show was that people were getting hurt. I think no one should get hurt ortaken advantege of.
The world will be so high tech in 20 years and their will be machines that do thing in a mila second. Also cars will fly in the air. their would be no need for plains anymore. their will be hotel's in space and in the sky.
I think todays news was verry intersting because people did not really know what happend back then and if they watch the video they will know what happend to the twin towers.
wow
HAPPY 20 BIRTHDAY!!!!
i love watching cnn student news wideos thanx for keeping up carl and everyone their thant makes it happen it accually cool to c what was going on befor i was born thanx i love u cnn student news ur ROCK
from ur biggest fan,
julie
I think the world will be good or bad.I think at least people should try to make the world a better places. Not just for them, but for everyone. I think the most interesting thing you said was thet there was a tsunami. When it was summer, there was a hurican in florida and my uncle lives there.
Thank You,
Liza
The world will have higher technoligy and improved technoligy
In 20 years i think there will be a lot of pollution in the air.
There will be more different kinds of computers, more medications, and more schools. I think that the showing that happened before like the flood popped out the most. The hurricane popped out the most. The flood was also interesting.
I think it will be your 40ith aniversery and cars will fly!!
Today`s show was very interesting! I Thought it was awesome!(like the shoutout!) It was also very sad how people were getting hurt and dying.
I think that the world will be ful of robots in 20 years. And there will be flying cars!
I think that 20 years of cnn student news is amazing. I enjoy watching it. I think that it is cool to know what is going on around you.I think that the school vilines was most interesting.
I think the most intresting thing I saw in Friday's show was when they showed the presidents speeking at the end of the show. I also think the world in 20 years people will be being better to the earth.
What i think the the world is going to be like in the next 20 years is the we will fall into a worse economic problem, our goverment will crumble and communism will take over. I also see a world war three in the near future.
The thing that stood out to us was that there was no pun this newscast... and that makes us sad! 😦
Ideas of what the future will look like in 20 years:
-zero-gravity basketball
-the war will start to come to an end
-there will be no world if we don't take care of the earth
Here are our class thoughts:
-Operate things by sitting where you are
-Find the cure for AIDS
-Current war will end
-Economy will be better
-Israelis and Palestinians will come to an agreement
-Refrigerators will throw food to you
-Texting will be out and ESP will be in
-TV will be voice activated
-Polar bears would be extinct
-More environmentally friendly cars
-Flying cars
-All classes would have a Synthesizer
-Paraprofessionals will be robots
-Not enough trees
wow you guys really well the past 20 years see ya on Tuesday. what we reallly did stand out was the with the war
what we reallly did stand out was the with the war
I was amazed that your segment about 20 years in history today focused on so much tragedy. Yes, those are big news stories but there are many stories that could focus on good things.
Also, the kids in my class today were not born until 1996; it would have helped them to have some type of caption or headline to define what they were seeing.
My students immediately commented about the "sad and the tragic" being more of the focus. They asked me, "What are some good things that have happened in the last 20 years?' It is sad to me that the bad and tragic drives the news. I even think people would feel better about the economy if the media could be more postive. Always remember your impact on young people.
We enjoy your news segment each day. I just wanted you to know their thoughts today.
my favorite part when George H.W. Bush said that the war ended.That was totally awesome!(:
What i think the the world is going to be like in the next 20 years is the we will fall into a worse economic problem, our goverment will crumble and communism will take over. I also see a world war three in the near future.Check it out!!
I think that 20 years of cnn student news is amazing. I enjoy watching it. I think that it is cool to know what is going on around you.
I cant beleive cnn student news has been around so long.
I think that Obama's win is most interesting.
I think it was hurricane Katrina because it was flooding all over the places, because a lot of people were hur
I think that Obama's win is most fascinating.
CNN Student News' 20th birthday was intresting.
i think that when it is 20 years later is that there will be at least 1 woman president. there would be moer reycling
i tink that in 20 years that people will make the world the best place ever .
This show was like totally awsome I loved it and it was really awe inspiring. It was sad and made me cry. But i still liked it.Football is my favorite sport to watch but now i think of it in a different way.
I think that the most interesting part was when the twin towers crashed. I saw that!!
What i think the the world is going to be like in the next 20 years is that we will have a bad money problem, our goverment will crumble and communism will take over. I also see a world war three in the near future .i think cnn news is cool.it is awsome how you know what is going on.
I think the battleshipis the most intresting.
I think Obama’s win was most interesting out of everything because his the first Africa American Present
I think that Obama's win was most interesting because they never had a black president and I think that there will be a lot more interesting inventions that I would never think of.
I think it willbe great only if we do the 3 r's.
in 2000 they said that we need to help the ones that are sufforing today because i think it is very important. people need help these days! so we need tostep up and help now!!!
What stood out:
-The Virginia Tech Shooting because my brother went to college and someone tried to do the same at his school
-Hurricane Katrina because we did a fundraiser for that afterwards to raise money
What we expect in 20 years:
-Another terrorist attack on the US
-Atomic bomb dropped on a country
-More materialistic technology being more common
-North Korea starting a war
-Lions win the Super Bowl
-Cars flying
-Smarter cars
-Cars that drive for you
-Schools no longer using paper- just technology
-Flying cats
Uhhh i really don't know what is stood I liked all of it.
The question today was messed up because there was no correct answer. In 20 years I hope there is flying Ferraris
I liked the whole 20 years slideshow, bravo!
Well, its like this, in 20 years, this country will either have peace and prosperity, or death and decay. Most likely the second one, since it seems most people cant live with others differences.
what i think about todays show is, i was just remembering all the bad things that happened and felt kinda bad.i think that we are going to have way more advanced technology.
Like Forest Gump's mother said "Life's like a box of chocolates, you never know what going to get." 20 years from now I don't know!
20 years from now i would want to have a flying car and be rich
I think that the world in 20 years is going to be flying cars and better cell phone and all that. i think that looking back 20 years ago for the news was very cool.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CNN STUDENT NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!! We watch your show everyday in History class. You are the BOMB Carl!! Keep up the stupinious (I hope that's right) work. By the way excellent newscast today.
Happy Birthday to you.... sorry, I'm a terrible singer.
Well maybe cell phones in your head that would be reaaly creepy though so maybe not
What really stood out was the first world trade bombing. Twenty years is like a long time and alot of things will change. Like more hi-tech devices. For instance cell phone companies are coming out with so many new phones that i dont know what i would choose for a phone. HI!! :0
i think that the world will either be thaken over by clowns or just like it now but the air will be more polluted and more technology!?!?
i think that if the economy keeps going like it is that we are all going to pay for it because we are just starting to come out of the ressesion and we need to stop doing bail outs
In 20 years life as we know it will become worse. We complain that jobs and the economy has took a deep decline down into the toilet. If we decide to raise taxes to the upper class the jobs will diminish because they are the ones providing the lower and middle class the jobs they need to survive. Also as I said when I blogged about the health care reformity we are just giving to people who are usually lazy bums who won't get off there butts if we help them. Plus in the end are generation and the next will have to pay for all the money we and the goverment gave which will put us in even more debt as we already have. Plus the liberals will not even let us drill for oil even though we alreadyhave it here so is it wise to give bail outs when were in enough DEBT ALREADY?!
i think there will be super rad robots everywhere. i also think that we will have made living in space possible and aliens will have finally made peace with humans. cars will also be flying. for real
I think the world will be more evolutionalized in twenty years. i think that Bush had a lot of mishaps while he was in office. But, still a great president. I'm always gonna remember Obama getting into office though. i won't ever forget that or 911 for that matter.
What Really stood out was the 9/11 thing. With the airplanes running into the buildings and killing thousands. 20 years from now I think that CNN student news will be about the same bad jokes keeping us up to date with news and weird facts. So yah it will be about the same
Well I think 20 years from now hopefully ill have a happy family at the same time computers improve hopefully Osomo becomes available to us in the US and we and all our troops will come back very soon and well I think the future will be great.
I think it was nice to let him win a touch down because he had down syndrome. And the winning team let him get that touchdown. That was good sports men ship.
I really like the corny jokes at the end of each show. Every day we watch CNN student news and I don’t like the show, I like the joke. I also like the before we go part. That is very interesting to me. In 20 years I don’t know what I will be doing but all I know is that I hope I am alive.
I think that twenty years from now, the world not be very different. After all it will only have been twenty years which means no flying cars, robots, or space transportation. I think that it will be more like it is today only with just a few small advances and a better economy.
The twenty dollar bill has Andrew Jackson it and the atomic number is number 20 that’s when the Chicago bears beat the England patriots.
In 20 years, life might be better than it is now and it might be worse. I would hope that the technological and the healthcare systems would be updated an everyone would have healthcare. I would hope that we wouldn't have debt (*cough* Washington *cough* D.C. *cough*) and that everyone who needed help from the government could get the help they needed.
In my opinion with the rate that technology is accelerating the world will be significantly different in twenty years. There is also the fact that some of our political issues today will be amplified over time. Due to this we must now begin to try and do the best for ourselves in the future. Twenty years may not seem like much in the long run but in terms of technology and news it is equivalent to a millennium. Within twenty years many of the things we thought to be impossible will be common practice then. Look 1989-2009 and you will see what I mean.
Happy 20th Birthday!!!
I doubt that the world will have any significant changes 20 years from now. While there will be advances in technology, and many of them may be important, the world as a whole will be largely unchanged from what it is today.
In 20 years we will have hoverthingers. And, we will have water that turns into fire. And fake stars.
we will have hover cars crazy telephones and crazy people
I can’t say for sure what it will be like 20 years from now, but I can bet that it will be more high tech than what I can think of. There could be millions of things that might happen. People could be driving hover crafts everywhere, or we might even have teleportation! Let’s just hope the future is bright.
i think that in 20 years from now there will be another disaster that will effect the whole world, and the future.
It will be different because there will be robots as butlers
I think that there will be robouts every where
I think that in 20 years the wourld will have robots in our lives according to the science channel., Also, that we will have a great economy and that we will have world peace.
I think in 20 years the world will be polluted and we won't even be able to eat it will be to sick from dieses. So I think we should start conserving and save the enviroment as much as possible.
In 20 years I think that there will be a lot of robots that will do things for us. There might even be huver-cars! I doubt it though. Technology is improving and getting better everyday and if the scientists continue to do the good work that they are doing each and every day, there might be robots doing things for people on a daily basis. Alse, things will be solar powered!!!!
i dont think it will be much different besides more energy eficent things and fewer bad diets.
i thnk the world will be extremely different. it will be polluted and the world will be hot. i hope we make huge advances in technology though
In 20 years, I think the world will have changed. Not in many ways. Yes there will be better things like flying cars, or something. But the world will still have wars, environmental problems, and the economy may not be better. If no one decides to change the ways the world is now, we will never be a perfect planet. Why can't we just have peace? Everyone shares the land, and you dont need to fight for your freedom. We all need to come together as a planet and as people, and pull it together so there is a world in 20 years.
I think tech will be higher and the artics will have melted and Fl. will be underwater.
Happy birthday Cnn Student News, I love your show! In 20 years I think we will travel in bubbles instead of cars (Meet The Robensens) and the air will be clean and we will have an alternet power scorce that doesn't hurt the Earth. 🙂
I think fuel will be with water and natural gas for all things. Mini electric cars will be roaming the street. robotics will exell to anything in a household. The problems in the world like too much garbage and world hunger will be solved.
In 20 years it might be good or bad because you do not know how life is going to tearn out you just have to wate and see.
20 years from now' the world could be all full of technology new ways to have fun new cures for diseases and way much more!Also the world might even not be here anymore and everyones dead because if we dont help save our world by recycling and saving water and energy we could all die just because of the careless people of our world.
i think things will be more advanced in many ways,
Techno will probably be in style for sure. I can imagine flying cars over head and a 5 second school day! LOL
I bet that the world moght not be in the greatest shape then, but all the people that are united stay strong and if they help the world, they would feel great and the world would be great.
happy birthday cnnnnn yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh
In 20 years I think the world will be full of fast car ( maybe flying cars) the building was be 300 storys tall we would have a phone build into our brains and sports would be evry safe.
happy birf day ccn i love your show and it nice to get info about stuff
In 20 years i think that the world will be like a big computer so that there are eletric cars that fly.And Your house would be able fly and your microwave could make any thing you wanted and it would be voice activated.
In 20 years I think there will be a lot more technology. Also, I think there will be faster transportation than airplanes and jets and cars. It will be amazing.
I think and hope the world will be getting better. Like hopefully the world will be recovering from the pollution in the air, and hopefully more diseases will be treated. Also, the world should be more safer to live in.
I think the world will be crazier now because look what a mess our world is rightg now.
I think that the wold will be better equiped with better technology. Not technology like robot butlers but things that can helps when we are in need. The wold I think will be less poluted sice1 the U.S has joined together in healing the planet. We will probobly also have different fashons.
I think the world would be better than it is now. I think so because we would have better technology. But I think that the enveironment would be worse than it is now because of more polution from cars.
Happy birthday CNN Student News! Considering I haven’t been alive for 20 years it’s a pretty big deal. I have always liked CNN Student New. Anyway, HAPPY BIRTHDAY CNN STUDENT NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think it will be more hi tech and will be kinda weird...
i think in 20 years it will look like many AND HOVER CARS
I really dont know.Maybe there will be no more wars or country fights
The world will probally look like a disaster. Or it will lokk more freindly to the enviroment.
ithink that is s cool. I enjoy watching you shows.
I think the world will be more green and that we aill have artificial power systems and we will have cats that p-roduce less or no polluttion so the world will be able to healm from every thing we have done to it . And i think that the ocean should be less pollluted and no pacific dump lot with all the trash and preserve the coral reefs.
Congratulations CNN!
I thimk the world be more advance.Like we can the speed of light,and hovering cars and boats.That we can live on the moon.
I think that in 20 years from now, there will be a lot of advances in technology, but not too many things will be different from today.
i think the world will be dirty because how many people pulute and liter and everyone will be dead because their wont be enough air and the trees wouldnt be able to servive because of all the pollution
CNN Rocks!!! Even though I just started watching at school, I KNOW I LOVE it but I also think it covers the breaking news that everyone needs to know about!!!!
THE LONGER SCHOOL DAYS WOULD BE VERY STRESSFUL BECAUSE THERE IS SUCH A BIG THING AND US KIDS NEED OUR OWN SOCIAL LIFE .LONGER SCHOOL DAYS SHOULDNT BE HERE CAUSE WE WOULD BE LEARNING THE SAME THING OVER AGAIN.THERE WOULD BE ALOT OF DROP OUTS SO YEA BAD CHOICE!
more enviromentally protected, and flying cars!
happy 20th birthday!!! did u cover when Princess Diana died. that was tragic. CNN Student News ROCKS!!!!
I think the world will be way different in 20 years. we could have an amazing place to live in if we change the ways we act but if we don't change and start recycling we might live in a dump.
I think the best parts are the breaking news stories
O, and Carl Azuz's jokes lol
I think the world be over in 20 years
I think this is supposed to be a happy comment, but I don't we're going to have an "happily ever after" in our world. Violence, including murder and rape, are increasing rapidly in the United States. Sadily, it seems as if were the country that has the most problems with this. I think it will just continue to get worse, and our ozone layer is doing to hot either. Just how will my children (Wow, only an teen, waiting awhile, don't worry :]) be able to go outside with out sun screen? Or walk across an street without being hit by a car?
The one phrase that annoys me the most is "whatever".It's most often used and can be annoying when used all of the time.
