it's going to syria now where rebels have launched a counterattack against pro-government forces in the northwest of the country fighting has been intensifying in the region since last month and the u.s. says it's concerned that chemical weapons have now been used mohammed general jim reports. in northwestern syria these rebels are advancing on pro-government positions in the town of comfort in the buddha this operations under way as government jets attack opposition strongholds according to the syrian observatory for human rights dozens of fighters have been killed on both sides this is part of an escalation in fighting since the russian backed syrian offensive of it began last month. and as the violence has intensified so has the humanitarian crisis syrian forces seized control of car from the buddha in northern hama province in early may that area is largely controlled by the who you to show an armed opposition group formerly affiliated with al qaida in syria. now hundreds of

thousands of people living there are caught in the crossfire dozens of aid groups are calling for an immediate end to the conflict saying conditions have reached a crisis point in my out of the norm and people say the town's marketplace was crowded when it was attacked by air raids. play on the dawn of the russian and regime planes struck the area of the mosque it's a crowded place in the middle of the cornish street. shops are destroyed the flesh of the injured people is on the floor people are collecting their belongings the strike hit an hour before the morning ramadan meal but according to the u.s. it may not just be conventional weapons that are now in use in syria the state department says pro-government forces may have carried out a chlorine gas attack on sunday in the region security experts say that would be very disturbing if proven true quite frankly they have a negative track record in that area so i wouldn't be surprised at all if they are and really this falls to russia it's raining and because russia is the patron

russia signed the agreement with the united states half dozen years ago or syria to get rid of its chemical weapons it will guarantee that and i mean again we're seeing this issue and it's really something that needs to be punished seriously. cross all red lines. the state department says it will respond quickly and appropriately if it finds evidence of a chemical attack a statement that comes just a day after more than $400.00 u.s. lawmakers urged the trumpet ministration not to pull u.s. troops out of syria. and just. start to come here on al-jazeera the u.n. adopts a resolution demanding that the u.k. relinquish control of the shake hands and we need venezuelans looking for a miracle to help them through the political and economic crisis.

i was there were plenty of stores bragging away across eastern parts of year we had some tornadoes even a tornado reported in poland i recently now that wet weather that wild weather that very windy weather destructive weather will just ease a little for a swiss a dry weather comes back aim behind central and western parts of the statement too bad that 2122 celsius there for london and paris will see as you're at a 28 there in betrayed by the storm they're going to continue rumbling away into austria pos opponents for a time around the baltic states and to western russia 24 celsius there from moscow warm right it will cold out it will freshen up as we go on into friday prices guys to come back at this day feeling quite as muggy still quite a few showers still a few storms there down towards the black sea towards remaining it's was hungry paul garia can see some wet weather around the balkans as well and it's just some rain by friday just coming into southwestern parts of france northeastern areas

that spankers see some a lot of these shallow as they want across northern africa 5 and reichel this area cloud just pushing across the libya there is the temperature boundary benghazi $25.00 celsius $44.00 would solve this therefore kyra on thursday still pretty warm on friday which is a touch. even when it is in a good fight. and remorse. when the boneless struck many died and many reste to end the epidemic. this is the story through the lens of local filmmakers we see people making sacrifices moving off of mission this is what i want to see survivors a witness documentary on al-jazeera.

baccy is a reminder of the top stories on al-jazeera hundreds of protesters have been arrested in the indonesian capital in a 2nd night of them straight against last month's election results parts of jakarta have been a lockdown following the deaths of 6 people in riots on tuesday britain's prime minister is resisting calls to resign after her latest breaks a plan backfired three's a maze new pitch failed to win over the opposition and many in her own party to bomb attacks have killed at least 9 people in somalia's capital mogadishu one of the blasts targeted a convoy of politicians heading towards the presidential palace. the un general

assembly has adopted a resolution demanding that the you what the u.k. relinquish control of the chain of silence the islands in the indian ocean how's an important military base for the u.k. and the u.s. mauritians claims it was forced to give up the islands in 1985 in exchange for independence james bays is following developments at the un. this was a humiliating defeat for the u.k. and its allies the us in fact only 4 other countries voted in support of their position overwhelmingly most of the un general assembly effectively the parliament of the united nations voted in favor of the shah goss islanders they are people who have not been allowed to return to those islands for more than 50 years since they were forcibly removed the islands in a deal between the u.k. and the u.s. became a military base and that was at the time that marie was given its independence but the u.k. kept hold of these islands the international court of justice has ruled that this

is a legal now at the u.n. general assembly has had its say and yet the u.k. and u.s. say they will continue to use the base that's there on the islands the base of diego garcia there is a treaty between the 2 countries that runs until 2036 the shaders islanders simply say they want to return to their home their best hope now i think is the very unpredictable crucible that is british politics prospects it because the leader of the opposition in the u.k. jeremy corbyn says he would apply the international court of justice ruling if he was prime minister and hand the islands back to those who originally come from that . the current administration wants to increase tariffs on chinese imports by another $300000000000.00 the treasury secretary says the duties could be imposed within a month and that the government is studying the possible impact on consumers earlier

this month president trump raise tariffs on $200000000000.00 worth of chinese imports from 10 to 25 percent beijing then retaliated by increasing tariffs on $60000000000.00 of u.s. goods. meanwhile the british base the chip design or a r m is suspending its business with chinese take giant hallway safa been struck at the polls contracts and any pending engagements in order to comply with the u.s. trade ban imposed last week the move could threaten the chinese firms ability to create its own smartphone chips so go has more. the british based chip designer whose products power purse ss from chip makers to companies such as apple has said that it was now a blocking war way from accessing its technology now the move comes after a u.s. government ban on the chinese firm a.r.m.

employees have now been told to cease all active contracts as well as any pending engagements may comes after the u.s. put away in a list of companies that u.s. firms are banned from doing business with another reason because of of a arms decision is because some of its designs contain technology which originate in the united states and now as a result because of this it is one of the latest in a series of com of companies around the world that have partnerships with. while way that and are seeking to distance themselves from the chinese firm for example on wednesday to telecoms companies vodafone and the u.k.'s largest mobile operator have said that they are suspending the pre order of away 5 g. handsets now while while way has reacted saying that it feels confident that it can resolve this decision it said that it is values very much as international

partnerships but in a proper snipe involved the us itself it's said that it recognizes what it calls international pressure by from politically motivated decisions that's according to our way but make no mistake this is quite a serious blow to the chinese company because it really relies on a our ems technology uses it for its own chips so really quite a serious. delay on how it can continue to manage to produce those chips if it has no access at all to that technology. the libyan warlord highly for have tired has rejected a ceasefire request from the french president during talks in paris have carte old emanuel necron the conditions for halting hostilities in tripoli have not yet been met at a butler has more from paris where the meeting between the french president emmanuel mark or and the renegade commander belief i have to took place behind closed doors

and it comes only 7 weeks after the launched an offensive to try and capture tripoli tripoli where the un backed government is based now there are very few details from this meeting but we have heard some from the early say they say that i have to told macro that as far as he was concerned the conditions in libya are not in place for a cease fire if those conditions were to be in place that have to then perhaps he would enter into political discussions but he told that he felt that there was nobody to talk to in the u.n. backed government he obviously feels that he has nobody he wants to negotiate with will that puts him at all mark on a very awkward position because a couple of weeks ago he invited the u.n. backed prime minister fires also rushed to paris he had talks with him also in what he was hoping to do was to persuade both also russian hafter to agree to a cease fire and reenter into this u.n.

peace process but that hasn't happened at least for now and in some ways it is a failure you might say of his diplomacy for the time being france though montagne that his position is very much backing this u.n. peace process but over the past few years some experts and analysts and political insiders in libya and in france have said that france is supporting have to even supplying weapons despite a u.n. arms in bargo. it's going to venezuela now with the continuing economic turmoil has resulted in overcrowded hospitals and widespread medicine shortages and with no end to the crisis in sight some are turning to spiritual healer is latin america editor lucien human reports now from near the capital caracas. you know my mother died in order. from 6 in the morning people start lining up to get their number every day hundreds gather in the spiritual center no created in venezuela largest slum. the

economic crisis is drawing more and more people to the one place that at least gives them hope for less than $1.00 cases of depression are up 3 fold says although to leave us. lack of food especially for your children is one of the main causes along with violence and the deteriorated health system you see people dying so you can imagine how it impacts people's psyche many want to commit suicide we do what we can to calm them. he says the sessions which are not allowed to be filmed are a mixture of science religion and face now they're going to show me what they would do if i were a real patient in. media most merely says the 1st thing is to pass the candle over the part of the body that hurts in this case my back while in a trance the idea is to block and release trapped energy. if the case was serious he would do this. carry out a spiritual surgical operation. some call it

a placebo others the power of suggestion but whatever it is people who are undergoing treatment here swear that they're being healed. which is why more and more are coming to find the kind of miracle that they say they desperately need to see in human i'll just see that that it in israela. kenyan author and activist binyavanga why 9 a has died at the age of 48 and looks back on his life and career. he was one of africa's most renowned young authors binyavanga wainaina won multiple awards for his writing including the caine prize for african writing for 2002 discovering home but most will probably remember him from a scathing satirical essay he wrote called how to write about africa challenging popular stereotypes about reporting on the continent when you write about africa he said always use the word africa or darkness or safari in your title never have

a picture of a well adjusted african unless that african has won the nobel prize remember any work you submit in which people look filthy and miserable will be referred to as the real africa do not feel queasy about this you are trying to help them get aid from the west a significant amount of effort coverage probably the vast majority of coverage all in africa by the way is what reinforces the preexisting idea that this story has to stop. kenya is experiencing economic growth after the devastation of the rest of the continent yet said from stop so that they existed narrative must to be the pendant and collapsed place and of him or maybe there's a good news story if you're lucky. a forceful advocate in changing how africa is seen and understood flight and i became one of the 1st prominent figures in kenya to announce he was gay after a series of anti-gay laws were passed to neighboring uganda and nigeria i see that

my coming out of the need of injury. you know moment to die an intervention that was like if i have to be a come to be here i don't want my brother this is those to be dying and being beaten in nigeria and then i'm kind of quiet and i'm making loud music the it's v we had people would give i've a feeling for them i just felt that that intervention was necessary when in a suffered a stroke in 2015 of the next year he announced he was a chevy positive he'll be remembered for humanizing the other and. one of the best writers of his generation he didn't try to create his own different stream that people going to follow in order to report or write about africa he created our own narrative and demanded a place for it the mainstream baby buke in the existing narratives it was a very courageous thing of the him to do and designs inspired many of us in many different fields to sort of bring up the african perspective and take all of our

narrative in media in conservation in education legal practice media practice and reporting etc binyavanga wainaina died in nairobi after a short illness he was 48 years old much more on that and everything else that we have been covering on our website the address on your screen threat now al jazeera dot com. now reminder of the top stories on al-jazeera hundreds of protesters have been arrested in the indonesian capital in a 2nd night of demonstrations against last month's election results parts of jakarta have been on lockdown following the deaths of 6 people in riots on tuesday britain's prime minister is resisting calls to resign after her latest aggressive

plan backfired theories amaze new pitch failed to win over over the opposition and many in her own party the revised plan included a possible vote on whether to hold a 2nd break that referendum on some legislation passes the 1st stage he insists that the next vote on the withdrawal bill will be parliament's last chance to deliver bricks it if we are going to deliver bricks it in this parliament we are going to have to pass a withdrawal agreement and we will not do so without holding votes on the issues that have divided us the most that includes votes on customs arrangements and on 2nd referendum we can pretend otherwise and carry on arguing and getting nowhere but in the end our job in this house is to take decisions not to dock them so i will push those decisions to this house because that is my duty and because it is the only way that we can deliver bricks it. 2 bomb attacks have killed at least 9

next it's the street thanks for watching. hi emily could be and i'm the dean and you're in the stream today who will win the new race to the moon with space agencies and private companies are eager to bring humans and their plans for development to the next frontier so do you have any questions about moon exploration well if you do share them with us via twitter or in our live youtube chat. and insecurity. of this is this north carolina state university and you are in the stream.

that's 29000 marks 50 years since the united states but the 1st man on the moon space agencies and private companies are calling for a renewed era of lunar exploration in january china became the 1st nation to successfully send a lunar probe to study the far side of the moon and last week the u.s. space agency nasa announced its exhilarated timeline to build the 1st lunar orbit outpost and but the 1st woman on the moon by 2024 other nations including india have plans for their own lunar landers that will examine the moon southern pole so what's behind the renewed momentum in bringing humans back to the moon well with us to discuss all of this from st louis missouri ryan watkins she is a research scientist with the planetary science institute and a member of the advisory board to the aerospace company blue origin from the hague in the netherlands bernard forming

a senior scientist at the european space agency also known as and the executive director of the international lunar exploration working group and in new york last but not least robin c. mangal a journalist and director of content for supercluster that's a website focused on stories about space so good to have all of you here in the stream thanks for being here so i want to start with this tweet because it really lays it all out here for why we're talking about this topic this is from the johnson space center nasa the u.s. space agency 2024 we are going and we are going to stay have a look at the promotional video behind that idea. 50 years ago retirement after the . trail we blazed cut through the fictions of science and showed us all. today our calling to explore is even greater. to go farther we must be able to sustain mission of greater distance and duration where he was use the resources we

find at our destinations. give us overcome radiation isolation gravity and extreme environments like never before these are the challenges we face to push the bounds of your planet. going to the blue to stay by 2024. to stay kind of ominous but kind of exciting bernard talk to us about what you think is behind this new impetus to get back to the moon and to make that push for lunar exploration. any way to come from the moon. the moon 008 don't you know it in why do we want to go forward to the moon you want to go for the moon for peace false science faulty we want to also goes in to make business to explode to be sources and inspire that that dick educate the kids that

would be the future moon locos and start a new renaissance scuttled to the moon because we are part of an. entity stand and so we have a lot of things to do there we're looking gage everybody it would be so it's not only for the sundays to engineers he's full of countries and we want all ages and or discipline because we are in it because of us we can be part of this movie ditch 7.5 b.n. people should be involved no no we we have. to send some robot was the father of the baby that i sent to the moon some 10 years ago once we have got some of the new maps of the moon we have fun places there where the water we have this is where they do it because it tonight we can next to it so i can hear the i do hear the. voice i love that you mentioned several things that we're going to delve into today in the show but that 1st the 8th continent of the world so ryan you hear this as

a member not his voice what do you make of this this push why are we going to the moon now i would definitely agree with everything that we are just said i would also add to that we're going not only to stay on the moon to use the resources to explore to learn science we're also going to get to mars so you know people in their community you hear them say it's not the moon or mars it's the new manned mars so we're going to the moon to learn how we can live and work in space in order to go beyond the earth moon system. and you know i hearing you say that it just reminds me of some of the conversations we had as we were preparing for the show which is act goed right now in our live chat as well as on twitter i want you to answer this robin if you can semi saying there's a lot of money put into the space program but the public is never informed on what's going on why not and is there a way for citizens to find out then we have another tweet from being charlie putting it perhaps a little bit more simply billionaires racing to cash in on the latest space race

what do you make of that robin is this about money as much as curiosity and anything else. absolutely. i think that's what's driving the commercial space industry and if there wasn't money to be made there wouldn't be any innovation right now and i think that the innovations that we've seen and reusability and what both will origin and space x. are doing by reducing costs is making this possible in terms of the public knowing about what this space in history is doing we need more space journalists we need more coverage of what's going on we need we need more science communicators we need more stem outreach on the grassroots level so i think there's a lot of things we can do to inform the public and an informed public actually helps the space program because then they write letters to their congressmen or senators they call for space exploration that's a really important facet of getting funding so let's help i didn't go ahead let's

help educate the public right now but. it's only money i mean money. mean to do what you want to do and you want to do to. keep cool you'll see t.v. going to the people. that look at about science and everybody to do most science law in ok events money and maybe we need to get benefits money viewed exposed to be souces but as a society we make progress all together and that's i think the biggest resources because doobies you know explosion. that we have all of those of the world is that we can inspire you to do the innovate to do seem to be looking at the moon but investing in. 1000 s. . so i have to agree with bernard and just say that exploring the moon and building the architecture to get there and the infrastructure to stay there is like building the internet you're allowing

a new platform for new start ups new entrepreneurs students and just about anybody who wants to get involved with space exploration. need now have that platform to go do so and that's what's important about settling on the moon so i want to get a little geeky right here for the science nerd center audience and also just for the general public so we know scientifically what it is that we have to explore ryan talk to us about some of the unanswered questions that we still have from the last trip to the moon what is there left that we don't know about what is there left to learn scientifically yeah well we could spend several episodes talking just about that question but kind of some high level things that we haven't answered there's a lot we still don't know about the different types of volcanism on the moon there's a lot we don't know about the impact history the age of different basins which if we can get that kind of information we can know a lot about the impact history not only of the moon but of earth and the inner solar system and by impact history you mean so what these were asteroids or these

for these explosions or these are hits on the moon yeah so yeah asteroids impact in the moon you know over what time frame says that happened had there been spikes in the impact history throughout history throughout the moons history. you know there's a lot you know there's a recent discoveries of water ice on the moon but we don't know what forms this water's in you know is it you know solid ice beneath the surface is it mixed in with the soil on the moon we don't know and these are just you know a couple of things you know we could hit on topics regarding the lunar atmosphere and the interior of the moon the actual regolith there's just so much we don't actually know and we need to go back to answer all these questions. in years that we we send some plants in we made you discoveries the old question. indeed we stand. out of the moon but also we found.

in the science of the moon would be key to. just a bit different though so he leaves thinking i'm sorry i'm very busy because this word has come up twice vulcan is that what is and is not simply a key in a brand as you will but also in the future we are going to take samples. and as a state we are going to do science from today school to observe the beginning of the universe look for extra to a source of edition and also we do science on the moon we bring life to the surface of the moon so yes go ahead go ahead rob meant it to answer your question about volcanism so volcanism on the moon isn't quite the same as what you might think about walking as i'm on the earth you know there's there's no large volcanoes sitting on the surface spewing lava. and the moon is not what we consider active so there's no volcanism currently taking place however if you look up at the moon you

know often see light and dark features and the darker that this little lava flows are or assaults so that's kind of the main type of optimism you see this is generally lava flows that have welled up from inside of the moon and solidified on the surface but there's all sorts of different types there's some explosive explosive all cannick products on the moon there's areas that are solicitor are not as iron rich is typical basalt like you might see on the near side of the moon or hawaii for example to play a terrestrial analog so there's a lot of questions about the duration of optimism when did it happen what types are there what kind of materials were produced so that's kind of i mean i don't is i'm i think the focus of this recent rush back to them is sort of focused on the south pole and because of the indian mission the chandran mission chandran one mission over the last decade we've had a really good look at the south pole of the moon and what scientists are

discovering there is that there's ice beneath the surface now we don't know if that is filled with regular. we don't know if that ice is in solid rock form but we currently don't have the technology to well to mind that ice because we don't know how to but we just study it this ice but that could be a resource for a fuel for oxygen just for general life support but i think going back to what ryan was saying about balkan is a very important aspect. relating to this terrain and when it comes to the terrain of the south pole especially it's far rougher than what neil armstrong and buzz aldrin walked around on. and remember it's on a permanent shell so it's dark and it's cold and it i don't think it ever gets above minus 250 degrees yeah you're going to hear you're making i found very enticing very robin here if we could take a step back i mean there's

a lot of people talking about how incredible this all is obviously space exploration is exciting even for those of us who don't understand the intricate inner workings of it elizabeth rainey on our you tube like tad asking this question admitting that the space race is an amazing achievement for all humans but saying i hope it doesn't become another form of colonize ation and this has been at code even on twitter by a lot of people saying seeing as how we've already trashed this planet from the immediate space around it to the deepest parts of the ocean why should we as an obviously subpar species be allowed to leave our trash heap and go destroy someplace else you talk about needing to exploit resources bernard what you write sir what would you answer to people considering. the new we did a system able to wait for an emission for human kind even for as a rest of life on us and so we have to go 1st to see what he said environment and then we go of these robots but. at least respectful what he

sent it so we are going eventually you will. missing place we have long been told of the clues maybe just because they don't use direction to stop these to the human to get fuel. into poetry economy but they do each of these respect and also some areas because it used the settlement but you also protect them that you show like we do we don't talk. so you're saying that this time will do a better will do it right i want to share with all of you a little clip from amazon c.e.o. and blue origin founder jeff bezos so this is on may 9th and he was unveiling his plans for returning humans to the moon and he was also agreeing with the trump administration's push to do this all within the next 5 years have a look 1st president pence just recently said it's the stated policy of this is ministration and the united states of america to return american astronauts to the

moon within the next 5 years i love this it's the right thing to do it's time to go back to the moon this time to stay so he loves it take a look here you see see the web page for blue origin and they are working on a robotic lunar lander called blue moon so ryan take us through this are you as excited as jeff bezos is or are you worried at all because next 5 years sounds too soon. yeah you know i'm definitely i would say i am as excited as he is if not more because i have been in the inner community for a while and i would love to have you know my own apollo to see humans back on the things i'm concerned about the timing is really short i'm not saying we can't do it but there's a lot of infrastructure that still needs to be in place we need to have a rocket that's ready to go into the lander that's ready to go we need to have astronauts who are who are trained not only to fly these things but trained and

feel geology and how to actually do science once they're on the moon and how to exploit the resources so there's a lot of work that needs to be done but i think it's very feasible and i'm excited to see all of the excitement from the administration and the commercial companies squeezed so and so i know you're excited and you know there are many optimists or time into this conversation i don't want to be too negative but because there are some critics on twitter or for now saying listen trying to put a caveat on his previous trade saying don't get me wrong i mean i want to eventually be a spacefaring species i mean with the universe however i work from a place of realism our species has not earned the right to go permanently off planet we need to clean up our messes here before we explore there robin you're nodding there's another tweet from kyle william marston and this is what we love to see when the conversation happens online saying replying to him saying well i totally respect your view i remain an optimist but also a pessimist i think humanity is shouldn't go extinct and to ensure that happens we

need to be a space faring species what do you think robyn i mean is that a fair criticism that there are going to go ahead those both these individuals are correct and my answer for that is i think that space can help us start to fix ourselves here on earth too i think it's you know we've all over the past decade we've looked to the internet we look to social media as a great united or and it's turned out not to be but i think in space exploration we can make it cheap and we can make it accessible to the everyday person i thing. there's a new frontier to be explored there's new technology to be made and i think it's going to be an even playing field i think on this new frontier and it will be a great you know. i just i love that optimism as well but i also i'm kind of still chuckling at that the person who tweeted and called humans a subpar species so i want to put this to your attention this from the united nations office for outer space affairs i'm sure you're all familiar with it the

treaty on principles governing the activities of states in the exploration and use of outer space now in 1067 countries around the world agreed to a set of rules on governing exploration and using space and one of those things was that it was supposed to be free for exploration and for use only for peaceful purposes so you see headlines like this this is from defense one pentagon wants to test a space based weapon in 2023 that's on one side of that spectrum on the other side that will just just today this headline dropped the sun and russia signed joint statement on no 1st placement of weapons in outer space that's from the international news bernard you're trying to jump in and what does it mean go for it . we're all just going to be greet the moon is it good you know. no you can it doesn't need to do so on the moon you could of destruction you could. use the moon to. do it to reach. sun to st bernard

bernard no no disrespect i just want to quickly push back on that i mean you could say many countries here on earth have signed many treaties and then violated them here on earth hold on they've violated them here on earth so what's to suggest that they want to the same on the moon. because this was so new a time of we need of conflict and if only it was the best way to have a space for peaceful purposes because then you can mostly do economy development to kill you z t and you know like on the international space station it's a place of peace between countries which have no tension conflict space is used for exchange for full knowledge and also for peace so i think i want to know the countries shine so tough that you fight treaty keep to it even. gives us china all of them so let's keep dystrophy but i need i need to point out that if

this is coming from the united nations the un barely has the ability to enforce its laws and regulations here on the planet i don't see them i don't see these treaties being upheld and i can tell you right now there i don't know if you can really define them as offensive weapons but there is a defense of weapons in the form of satellites and experimental technology being launched to orbit right now without the permission of anybody and i know i feel like i'm just. los to do it in the space around us but it's thought be done on the moon so the moon is we do a continent of peace so when we expose a moon we start he's a peaceful approach from here and i want to believe everything you're saying and i really do and so i am going to for this moment no i am i think it makes sense why not but i do have a question that's coming in in our live you tube chat maybe ryan you can answer this he tender a rapper saying wait a minute who has a story over the. no no one no one has that authority i mean there is this treaty

that's been signed but essentially no one owns the. you know the us is gone and we played it flags but we don't own that soil beneath you know the landers there so no one owns it no one really truly has that authority it's just like bernard said it's a peaceable place we hope that everyone who who plans to send a lander or a spacecraft to the moon does it with the intention of exploring and learning and you know getting humans out yonder but you don't need to know you'll need to because 1st a deep sea with nobody owns it but you can go fishing there and on the moon result ownership you still have to go to rekey to deploy today or to to fish go to explode the resources and then after we have to discuss all we distribute a bit if each of the sources so that's an interesting debate do we can we use it also for the rest of the road what both you keep for the one that is investing in

putting the tool in so now are you actually have a retirement plan here thinking yeah i mean it's about that i don't know most of we are working on a movie. or t.v. dish and we put a moon base in 20 years i plan to retire on the moon. but that's we're talking we're going to we're going to take a look at the animation something european space agency and it's part of our moon a village that you're talking about so talk us through why this excited me and why does this not scare here and yet we have a visa lenders that we have designed we go 1st in all beat and here we have looked to. be dug we start with and then we played some structures we want to examine we street printed structure that diluted by robots and then we come these human so he said leave some of the 1st that's a lot to do in 10 years we have some 10 us who know their own this is a good near the peak of it to know it's check it on twitter and know based on the

experience that we have. but from the international space station we use a. cell to move us also it's a place with thought this can be just something so someone just. robot there to sleep with it breaking a candle only can the structure which is very light it's going to take some heat. i was seeing it to be you can't deploy it. as a robot if you take it home. and i think you might have thought that. it could be ready for use in noticed if you have it or not and do it which comes you want a lot i hope so no doubt but a quick question just to snap back to reality robin we have a tweet from saying all states venturing to the lunar surface are nuclear powers doesn't this make sense to someone here and a lot of other tweets asking about why it's single nations working on this rather than working together your thoughts quickly robin i don't think it's single nations

yes the nations may be covering a lot of the cost but these kinds of missions whether it be in the moon or mars on require the efforts of universities reese research companies private companies manufacturers people busy who train astronauts you know their this is an international effort and i think we're not seeing the many pieces connecting right now but when it comes time to go to mars the 1st humans there will be an international effort everybody's going to have their hands on it it will be a crew of ross cosmos jacks nasa astronauts it's going to be the most expensive thing and it's going to be the most complex thing we've ever done so go back to the moon go back to mars no matter how much how much complex or it is and how much up complimentary everyone's going to have their fingers in the pie right robin we shall see that i have to leave it there robin for a night and ryan thank you so much for being part of this discussion today that's all the time we have for now but the conversation as always will continue on my.
