Buckingham Palace has approved King Charles (right)'s first official bust. Keziah Burt (left), 41, became a full-time sculptor just nine months ago, and her statue of King Charles will be on view at the Chelsea Flower Show next week. Last year, a Bristol art teacher created a sculpture of the Queen for the National Army Museum. Following this success, Keziah decided to try her hand at a bust of Prince of Wales, and coincidentally started her new venture on the day Queen Elizabeth II died. The artist took a break from the sculpture and later wrote to Buckingham Palace to request that the monument be kept. She was granted permission to produce eight bronze busts of Charles, much to her surprise.

What could aliens look like?Forget little green men - life on distant planets may resemble HUMANS

MailOnline has talked to a number of experts to see how aliens may look like both within and out of our solar system, as well as in distant exoplanets in faraway galaxies. Some believe that if an intelligent civilisation exists deep inside the universe, the aliens may have evolved in a similar way to us, and may have appeared almost human-like. One scientist explained that the reason for this is because'simple physics, plus food fight, and the desire to avoid predation will favour organisms with similar body plans to those that are not.'

Where aliens could exist in our solar system

The belief that aliens exist dates back to philosophers in ancient Greece, but it was during the 20th century's heydays - 'little green men' were everywhere in popular culture. Although the word is believed to have appeared in 1908, green Martian characters were plastered all over science fiction magazines and later TVs in the 1920s and 1950s. The truth is that if extraterrestrial life does exist in our solar system, it will be of a more recognizable variety, perhaps under Mars' clouds, below the surface of Mars, or in one of Saturn's rocky oceans. But where else is the best bet of finding it? MailOnline spoke to a variety of experts to find out what they did not know.
