that's the bottom of. context this is the food storytelling around the biggest issues lead them to do you should do it again. this is 0. hello again i'm as tall as a tape this is the news hour live from our headquarters here in doha coming up in the next 60 minutes the w.h.o. says hundreds of millions of covered 1000 vaccines it will be available globally next year as russia starts mass about summations despite safety concerns. iran takes another step towards banning the u.n. nuclear watchdog from unscheduled inspections of its sites. with a deadline looming boris johnson and the head of the european union try to break

the deadlock on a trade deal. on the final stage of human trials on a drug the makers say will conecuh malaria have now begun. when i should sport is the english premier league who welcomes back fans for the 1st time in 9 months 2000 spectators have been that out in torch west against manchester united in that day. and we begin this news hour and russia which is pushing ahead with its large scale of that $1000.00 vaccination program that's despite the final human trials not yet complete around $2000000.00 russians are expected to be inoculated with the sputnik the vaccine this month health workers social workers and teachers will be the 1st in line some scientists have welcomed the news others are saying the data has been rushed out to ali separately the world health organization hopes to have $500000000.00 vaccine doses for distribution in the 1st quarter of next year that's

under the kovacs program which aims to ensure equal access of vaccines around the wilds one of the countries have signed up to the kovacs initiative is iran there the death toll has topped 50000 it's the worst hit country in the region not says morals and mosques reopen in the capital tehran following 14 days of lockdown. reports on russia's max vaccination program. it's called covert back trade name sputnik v. off the soviet era satellite that triggered the space race and now russia says it's soaring ahead in its campaign against kobe 19. dozens of clinics in the capital moscow have begun inoculating those most at risk from the virus the city remains the worst affected place in the country 1st in line of people who work in schools the health service and social workers the large scale vaccination of military personnel has also begun but each person getting 2 injections $21.00 days apart.

i decided to do it right away not to wait it's difficult to say what to expect but i do hope it will stop me from getting ill the russian government approved the vaccine for use in august after recording 95 percent effectiveness of preliminary trials at the time it was touted as a world 1st despite only being tested on several dozen people the speed of the approvals drawn criticism at home and abroad with health experts insisting more advanced studies are needed to ensure its safety and effectiveness. but the russian government says there's no time to lose the country has one of the highest rates of coronavirus and his aging health care system is stretched. day one of the vaccination program is a success people waited a long time for the vaccine so far so good i cannot say how many people signed in but there are a lot of people who want to be vaccinated but president vladimir putin has yet to

be vaccinated himself although one of his daughters has apparently been inoculated all of those being vaccinated are reportedly volunteers but some public sector workers say they've been heavily encouraged to sign up in the absence of large scale preliminary tests critics say the mass vaccination program is essentially a phase 3 trial in the general population skepticism around this comes from. very quickly it's pretty it's pretty developed very quickly and it appears to be recruited into the general population rather than if you have been developed say. the trials. do not appear to have been as extensive as they would have been. the russian government's confident but it's likely to take time for the fast track to vaccine to build international trust. al-jazeera. to

only fatten his the vice president of vaccine research and development at blue well i biologics he highlights questions that remain about spotting feedback seem. i believe it is too soon to how i heard it we are working under the pearl of emergency and therefore we have to act and then it could be that the justification for rushing into a rolling vaccine is because under this ticket was sense is a benefit more is better than this. and therefore they're rolling out a soft in the normal you know to have this generally we need to wait until a free clinic shows us a state with some of our confidence and you need to build confidence among the people who oversee this act in the vote or number 2 we need to know how this vaccine behaves behaves and a part of that population at higher risk like the elderly for instance is the

vaccine say there is a vaccine immunogenic and and as some i think i see all these questions are not finalized all we know is that there was a 20 cases and they. measured if those cases where in the placebo group that is not enough of my my vision of the way of thinking about a vaccine is not enough really to roll out. that massive vaccine but if the authority of the health of the earth is in russia defined that this is the the infection and this rate of the virus is huge and therefore they have to do something i think that they have their own justification for rolling out. well in brazil the race to find a vaccine has turned into a highly politicized debate the governor of south palo has bypassed the federal

government to buy china's vaccine but president diable sonar has routinely cost doubts on it leaving the brazilian population confused monahan they have reports from rear dictionary. it's the 2nd plane in 3 weeks to land in symbolic brazil's richest state and it would be the last to bring back is that the chinese coupe with 19 vaccine corona governor's window idea says he already has more than 1000000 doses are deaf you know they should be by the end of december will have another 6000000 doses of the vaccine that will save brazilian lives and he wants to use them in some palm in january long before the federal government starts its mass vaccination campaign. as you struggle i'm incensed at the federal government's announcement that massive vaccination begins in march 500 brazilians die every day is the government going to wait for 60000 more to die before doing anything the

brazilian government is working with oxford to produce the astra zeneca vaccine but the race to win the coronavirus vaccine competition is turning out to be as much about politics as about public health dorothea a serious contender for brazil's 2022 presidential election teamed up with china in an effort to fight the pandemic. while his rival brazil's far right president jade bull samantha 1st claimed the chinese for independent with a gun he tried to undermine their credibility a diaper kid i wouldn't buy a vaccine that nobody believes in when corona fact clinical trials were suspended in november after a volunteer died also not a celebrated what he called one more victory over dorothea. also not his attacks on china's communist government are both ideologically and politically motivated according to her bathtub in

a former resume bastard to the united states and china also now though has already said he will try to be reelected and he sees the governor of some paulo as not not just that he was an enemy so this way both are not. both the governor of some and the chinese the scene which the governor was sunk by all this trying to develop china's already south america's number one trading partner and with more than 175000 pope in 1000 related death in brazil experts say beijing's vaccine diplomacy could give it a magic edge here china was the 1st country that said it would make its vaccine a global public good if we compare with for example with the with the united states . or the attitude made by donald trump was completely different.

openly focus. but also not as anti chinese campaign has also done its damage recent polls show that almost half of brazil is for commission doesn't trust the chinese vaccine money. the addition narrow al-jazeera. has i mentioned earlier iran's coronavirus death toll has reached 50000 with 321 fatalities recorded just in the last 24 hours some restrictions are being lifted in several parts of the country following a 2 week partial lockdown as a reg has more from tehran. business is funny reopened after a 2 week lockdown cafes restaurants james and government offices all reopened but with a reduced capacity but the numbers are not drastically down the daily deaths are at around 300 down from 8500 the daily infections are at around 13000 down from over 40000 the regions considered in the red zone of more than half of the country can't keep affording to lock down iran is still under u.s.

sanctions on the economy despite the positive spin the government puts on it has been hit hard they need people to go out and spend the money and keep the economy growing businesses here are happy to be reopened the money they get from the government isn't enough to keep them going for extended periods of lockdown and for many people not working means not getting paid but the real thing of restrictions does come with warnings keep wearing face masks maintain social distancing and president hassan rouhani has want people to stay away from public and family gatherings but he's also said that they can't rely on a vaccine may not be 100 percent effective but the reality is because of the sanctions iran may find it very difficult to purchase one. al-jazeera the one who's staying with iran and the country's supreme national security council has approved a motion to stop inspections by the u.n. nuclear watchdog and to increase its enrichment of uranium the plant is expected to

be in place in 2 months time after it's signed into law by president has a rouhani the motion was approved by the guardian council this week our correspondent explains. president hassan rouhani has said is that this was. diplomacy but what it really means is that the iranian officials would no longer allow announced visits by the i.a.e.a. inspectors now this is part of the nonproliferation agreement that iran has signed since 1970 this was a caveat of that agreement that was voluntarily signed by iran in 2015 after the nuclear deal was signed before iran to show some good face to the international community to say that we don't have anything to hide but since then the inspectors it's important to know they have visited 26 known nuclear facilities they have visited a number of military facilities as part of their inspection so the officials here have said that it's enough now because the u.s.

withdrew from the nuclear deal in 2013 this bill was seen as an effort to try and lift some of the sanctions that they would pose on iran since then now in terms of the i think it still visit the nuclear sites but they have to go back to the pre 2015 agreement which is they have to announce in advance of where they want to go and when they want to come in and that will still continue but the unannounced visits will no longer happen within this new as a result of this new bill what this essentially does is it puts the incoming u.s. administration of president elect joe biden to face one of his 1st really foreign policy challenges they will have a small window of opportunity when they take office from january 20th until this bill comes into effect the beginning of february to see what they will do and that will determine how iran will proceed. well there's plenty more ahead on this news hour including

a record number of women are on the ballot as polls open in kuwait's parliamentary elections. keeping the peace thousands of security personnel deployed across gonna head of monday's presidential election. and support with gemma make sure market closes in on winning the formula 2 championship. now the head of the european union says trade talks will continue on sunday during this decisive stage following a phone call british prime minister barak johnson and land have asked negotiate as to resume talks but cautioned no deal was possible unless key issues were resolved both sides only have until the end of this year to agree a new trade deal when the pretty breaks that agreement will expire when it's being to nadeem baba he joins us now from london the day and we've just had in the last few moments from in and doesn't seem like much has really moved here. you

know we've heard as you were saying in the last few minutes via a joint statement i have it here from a sort of underlying european commission president prime minister boris johnson they held a phone call for over an hour earlier on saturday now that was because the whole dossier had basically been passed to them because the negotiators had reached the limits of their mandate on friday david frost the british chief negotiator michel bunnie a the e.u.'s chief negotiator put out another joint statement saying they hadn't been able to reach a deal and there were 3 key areas of difference still remaining now listen to the latest statement from dandelion and boris johnson almost word for word the same significant differences remain on 3 critical issues level playing field governance and fisheries they say that yes there has been progress but they need all of these

issues dealt with before anything can be signed off there has been a lot of noise in the last few days on fisheries and the british side briefing reporters that there would be new demands from france for example france threatening to veto a deal if they're not satisfied but let's not forget this doesn't represent a large section of the british economy there are other major issues on the level playing field and there are reports from the e.u. side that several member states were unhappy that michelle bunny was going to give ground on things like what kind of competition rules they'll be there worried about unfair competition from british firms if for example if the british government is allowed to give them state aid also environmental regulations things like that there is a real areas of difficulty so yes we're no further forward but as you were saying as you have on the line says the negotiators we don't know which individuals are being called to meet again in brussels on sunday they're not giving up but they're

admitting that they're not going 'd anywhere at the moment and given what looks like this ongoing deadlock in their sense that both sides are all saying preparing for a potential new deal. well you know for a long time now both sides have said they are prepared and ready to get c. a no deal scenario if it comes to that this is partly. strategic partly posturing trying to put pressure on the other side but i think the more that time winds down before that 31st of december deadline yes it becomes more of a likely prospect and really time is of the essence they have just a few days it needs if any deal is going to be struck it needs to be agreed on in the next few days there's an e.u. summit on thursday and friday and then any deal would have to be ratified in various parliaments including the european parliament before the end of december

it's it's really hard to guess what is going to happen if there is a deal then i think both sides will be relieved that they will have avoided the worst impact because on the 1st of january without a deal there will be tariffs there will be higher charges on imports and exports it could really hits industry particularly here in the u.k. but it could see higher prices around the continent even under a deal we shouldn't forget there will be there will be obligations on x. on importers and exporters here to carry out customs declarations there will be some kind of licensing involved for certain products including live animals and so on it's not going to be easy but in terms of the economic impact the worst case scenario for most commentators is that no deal breck's it bob and i across all of that for us and all the latest from london thanks so much michel. hopefully soon

the french capital have fired tear gas a protest is because there has been such a liason public areas damaged thousands are demonstrating against a proposed security you know what they say will protect rogue police offices earlier this week the government said it would rewrite part of that bill that would ban publishing photos of police on juicy but critics say it should be scrapped entirely. now saudi arabia's foreign minister says its allies involved in imposing a blockade against katsa are on board to find a resolution to the gulf crisis the emir of kuwait said he was pleased with how talks have been progressing and that sentiment has also been echoed by the cattery foreign minister mohammad banaba ramadan funny saudi arabia bahrain the u.a.e. and egypt imposed a land sea and air blockade of kaesong in june 27th teen pop up as i mentioned we have seen significant progress in the last few weeks which means that we are now hopeful that we can reach a final conclusion very soon one that will be satisfactory to all parties and it's

important to note that we have always worked very closely with our partners and continue to do so and that remains the case and the resolution will be one that involves all parties to the dispute and i am hopeful that we will be able to announce the details. oh polls have now closed down to a series of cost the ballots in palm tree elections that they're looking to fill $50.00 states and a record number of women are among the more than $300.00 candidates but as john jay reports the virus has been overshadowed by a cover one team. in kuwait where the economy is worsening as a result of low oil prices and the coronavirus pandemic parliamentary elections still going ahead as planned voters masked up before casting their ballots and said they hoped these polls would begin to turn things around and. i

boycotted the past 2 elections this time us told that i should participate because the situation is deteriorating we need to be united and he licked me foremost in the parliament so that the situation may improve hopefully you feel like columnist i hope that the kuwaiti people will choose wisely that they will choose the people who represent kuwait changes a must these are the 1st elections in kuwait since its new emir. took office in september after the death of his half brother. a civil have with the opposition weekend in recent years analysts say no major political shift is expected and with the campaign season severely muted due to the pandemic many believe voter turnout will be lower this year up for grabs are 50 seats in parliament and among the 326 candidates a record number of women 29 are running. and not go we have to fight corruption by choosing who will represent us inside the national assembly and be

a person with a conscience honesty he loves this country and its citizens kuwait's nearly 140000000000 dollar economy is facing a deficit of 46000000000 dollars this year in september it was downgraded for the 1st time by moody's investor service. and just a month earlier kuwait finance minister warned the government may no longer be able to pay salaries still analysts say it's not just the economy that will pose a challenge to the upcoming parliament also the lack of just between. many people with the. need to be. effective used to be and i think this is going to be. election results many say that no matter the results the biggest difficulty going forward maybe how to overcome legislative gridlock. and. how the u.k. based team behind the oxford astra zeneca vaccine for cover 19 says it's also taken

a lot of strides towards conquering malaria the jennet institute says it's now beginning the final stage of human trials for cheap vaccine which so far have proven to be 80 percent of that to u.k. volunteers it will now be tested on $4800.00 children across africa and the world health organization commends work combating malaria globally and it's morning that covered 19 could seriously impact treatment in the past 2 decades the w.h.o. says 7600000 lives have been saved the mosquito borne disease killed nearly 3 quarters of a 1000000 people 2 decades ago and for some context in 29409000 people died from the disease 94 percent of the world's cases and deaths are in africa nigeria alone accounts for about a quarter the w.h.o. warns that covered $1000.00 restrictions could cause major disruptions and anti moon aerial treatment leading to thousands more deaths pregnant women and children

face the greatest risk well i spoke to adrian him he's the director of the gem institute at the university of oxford and i asked him about the scale of the problem. this year the world will probably see over $70000000.00 cocoa cases so there are actually more clinical episodes of malaria but of course there are more localized mainly in africa as you just said so it's for children in africa that we desperately need a bag seen hundreds of thousands of lives every year and that's been a very difficult task professor why has it taken so long to get to this point well as you've seen with co that we can do that seems against viruses that malaria is a protozoan parasite it's hundreds of times larger than a virus and it has thousands of antigens choosing the correct one is it's not easy and people been trying for many many decades so we have know that scene's against

parasites technically they're just a much greater challenge so i know that there had been previously efforts to try to target the mosquitoes themselves and there was another that says smith kline vaccine that's only what 30 percent effective it in the simplest of terms can you tell us how this one what. you know some of the goats at smith kline vaccine which was the 1st one to show some of the see in africa and ours were by targeting the so-called reside that's what the mosquito and jerks when you up this summer have and it binds onto a very conservative part of the sport reside and stops them in burning liver cells and that's been proven to be the most efficient way of making a malaria vaccine but like most vaccines there's none of these are perfect and with malaria we're trying to do better than the g.s. came back seen things are looking promising but the key test is coming now as we move into a certain color and so those 3 trial that will recruit nearly 5000 children of

course how soon do you think post their phase 3 trial could we see this vaccine roll that i imagine there are also hugely adjustable challenges given the sheer numbers involved and the infrastructure in developing nations which presumably will be the focus here. so. your last point. most of all of the countries are really fairly well off in terms of infant and childhood vaccinations so you go read some of the coverage of over 90 percent for up to 10 that seemed so great job is being done today in distributing other vaccines and we think if we can get this one to work well that will be added to the list so we do see other challenges of course in making the laxey inexpensive so that it can be affordable because many hundreds of millions of doses are going to be needed ever needed every year and there are already fortunately we have partnered with the world's biggest vaccine manufacturers who are serum institute of india in india

and they are a wonderful partner they have manufactured the sexy in successfully already for our 1st rattles and are doing so and have finished doing so recently for the upcoming to those 3 trials so we expect that this should be deployable if it's a shown to work very well and do you see a day a professor where we may have eradicate 2nd area particularly in very vulnerable populations of across sub-saharan africa. there will be such a day on fortunately it won't be next year or in 5 years it's going to take a decade or 2 there what we have to do now is stop people dying reduce the amount of malaria in very endemic countries particularly in sub-saharan africa and work our way towards that using all the tools we have we already have bed nets we know that insecticide we have some very good drugs but we need

a vaccine as well. well still ahead on al-jazeera venezuela's opposition is boycotting upcoming elections they've got a motel a temper puzzle vitals and hopes are shedding light on the origins of life after 6 years a japanese spacecraft has to bring home a cargo of asteroid dust. and in spite of the russians domination of skiing's face style while complimenting fenland and gemma will be here with all the action it will. the clouds been persistent and the rain's been almost off anywhere from the levant dance of central south in that still the case the heavy rain stretching through kuwait and on sunday will be in iran mostly the might be a few showers in the gulf the might even catch bahrain but it's clearly rain or

snow it's hard for iran moving up to azerbaijan as well as for the eastwards towards afghanistan that behind it is usually a couple days of sunshine the breezy dies down the very warm bodies were should be 18 for baghdad and 28 in doha the forecast for doha will see the temperatures drop away as a cold cold cooling northwesterly sets in so that's the picture than for monday we've got more showers brewing in the g we're proper rain brewing and will probably send a few showers across the levant the start of next week the seasonal rains in africa doing what they should do now is a good line from angola through zambia towards zimbabwe and mozambique now we have seen some rain in malawi where it's much wanted we see regular showers down in south africa that's going to happen again but the puter reflects the rains only just getting in to mozambique and a long way it's gone away again. but

. and saudi arabia's foreign minister says its allies involved in imposing the blockade against are on board to find a resolution to the gulf crisis saudi arabia along with bahrain the u.a.e. and egypt imposed a land sea and air blockade of kaesong in june 27th. ethiopia's government says it's captured or killed most of the leaders of the embattled gray region as it tries to bring an end to the month long conflict but the head of the people's liberation front says people in the regions capital nicolay protesting about ethiopian backed eritrean soldiers a media blackout in the region makes it difficult to confirm these allegations and sudan has also played an important role in sheltering thousands of refugees from tikrit despite its own economic difficulties but this is not the only challenge posed by the conflict as muhammad ali reports from the sudanese ethiopian border.

the sudanese army on patrol near the border it's on the lookout for refugees who might be stranded in the area after the fighting unit g.o.p.'s northern region brigadier general is but out of his country's role. for the 1st 12 days before aid agencies arrived the peace. full of get a reef were the 1st to offer food blankets shelter and comfort to the refugees the sudanese armed forces organize transportation for thousands of civilians and brought them to hash camps the hash up are also known as village aid hosted 15000 refugees in the 1st 2 weeks after the fighting started integrate these homes were borrowed from local sudanese farmers to host the refugees so that is aid agencies prepared food in the camps that is one of so many sudanese in the hash aba village who share their small homes and modest meals with the refugees. we look at if

europeans is part of our family our neighbors and friends we have historic ties with them so when the war broke out we went out into the streets and open fields looking for those who came here fleeing the fighting. so that itself is going through chronic inflation fuel shortages and other economy problems stability at its borders is of utmost importance where the war in its opium has brought to the fore another unresolved issue here where i stand is the facade of farmland thousands and thousands of active militants asemi fields and this land is actually disputed between ethiopia and sudan. the triangle where most of the refugees are staying covers an area of about 250 square kilometers and it has about $600000.00 acres of felt thailand so that says it's an integral part of its territory because it lies west of the line drawn by colonial britain but ethiopia maintains an army

presence here and if you open a pharmacy exploit huge parts of the land a joint committee has been trying for years with little success to finalize a border demarcation. pointing to it across the adjacent up battery for this sudanese farmer he's unequivocal. aboard. well defined we're not ready for compromise our government has allowed these ethiopians to settle on our land but we object to that we will fight them to the last man and to be restored fully that's the pact we made with our ends he says we haven't crossed into ethiopian territory what do they want to take out. during the 1st few days of the fighting integrate some utopian army units abandoned their bases within and avoid was filled by the sudanese army now it's commanders tell us they're not intending to cede those positions to the choppin army if it tries to return. i just fish i got

triangle so the knees each open border. a large security operation is underway in gonna ahead of monday's presidential election there have been threats of physical violence in recent weeks and the election commission says it's completed preparations for about 39000 polling stations amid interest reports from gone as capital accra. dinah's leading presidential candidates came to signed a pact for good conduct and peaceful elections but as soon as the event started the political rivalry the defined their campaigns for decades was on display. recent events under the current administration have given many anxious moments of doubt about this i mistrust us ability to deliver useful bargains feel action we believe in election and the happen don't happen to give my work the whistle xcept the credit of the people of god. as of the people the peace unity and safety of ghana will be our primary situation. watched by traditional and really just leaders

as well as the international observers including the united nations the 2 rivals signed the document anyway it's their 3rd agreement in as many elections. a few kilometers from the venue of the 70 some 63000 military and paramilitary offices have been deployed to keep the peace during the elections. these clashes that's the 1st time it's about a police officer and the armed forces who might come up to officers who come to provide cultural and rapid response to go there and that's all you know instead you know you sometimes battered by new stuff costs are used more than 6000 hotspots have been identified by gun a security service during this election among them the volta region why separatists still pose a substantial threat they're also ethnic and political tensions capable of disrupting the vote. at the election commission materials for the ballot leave the

stores for the 39000 polling stations election officials accused by the opposition off attempting to rig the vote say they have nothing to hide can not do what you want to do everything. so last longer little it is in the law to be shipping it that's not a problem. you get one it does not support about last monday's election will be the 8th since the country's returned to democratic rule 28 years ago. hoping to build on their record as one of africa's most stable democracies. but they also know the dangers posed by the current political and ethnic tensions as well as the threat from separatists near the border with talk with you greece i'll just run across god. now a u.s. federal judge has ordered the trunk administration to fully restore an obama era initiative protecting young undocumented immigrants from deportation in 2017 trying

trying to end the deferred action for childhood arrivals program with dhaka prompting angry demonstrations earlier this year about move was blocked by the supreme court friday's ruling class the way for undocumented teens and young adults to apply. now venezuela's main opposition party is organizing an alternative to sunday's national assembly elections which they say are fortune's they are preparing a 6 day constitutional consultation summer tour referendum our last america at a certain scene in reports. on the eve of crucial legislative elections in israel an opposition leader why the law is out on the campaign trail. but his goal isn't to get out the vote rather to convince everyone to stay home and boycott the poll just as he and the mainstream opposition are doing everything he wanted to be given the more you know because we resist torch of political violence

because we love our country and we won't stop until we have time for it but. it looks like history repeating itself 15 years ago the opposition also boycotted the legislative elections arguing that they were rigged against them that handed control of the national assembly to former president hugo chavez on a silver platter i was 7 this time to go opposition party leaders are proposing an election of their own called. lad similar to a referendum which the constitution recognizes as binding even if president nicolas maduro does not. yet it seems really silly finnis whalen's will be asked to respond to 3 questions. do you want president out a new and free elections do you reject sunday's electoral of the end and do you want stronger international assistance to rescue venezuela's democracy and protect its people from crimes against humanity. it's

a risky proposition the last question could be interpreted as an invitation for foreign intervention but that mainly online presents other problems only 7 percent of innocent people has internet. and. with water would have a gasoline sold. or possibly need to move to contact to the people to get informed and it's very difficult 77 percent of venezuelans say they don't believe the opposition can promote change within the next year so there's little motivation to risk government reprisals by voting in the consultation but it is not an opposition leaders tell us that their primary goal is to maintain and in fact increasing international support for goals in term government here in chile as the united states and europe the government has already promised not to recognize the new national assembly that results from sunday's elections. so while the

consultation is an imperfect substitute for an election that the opposition can't win it could at least by its leaders a bit more time you see in human al-jazeera. talks in india between farmers and government officials have ended without any agreement bond will resume on wednesday farmers are trying to overturn the law was which they say were damaged their livelihoods tens of thousands of protesters have been rallying at entry points to the capital for more than a week now how a capsule that's collected samples from an asteroid is landing in the australian outback the mission began with the launch of the higher the 2 spacecraft 6 years ago japanese scientists hope the sample could provide clues to the origin of our solar system and even possibly how life began here are about unmanned reports. i specially delivery of the capsule to the australian outback and this one came

hurtling down from space and it may contain some ounces to help us to understand the origins of our solar system and how life began. this is the end of the high oppose a 2 probes mission that was sent to the 4600000000 year old asteroid really grew to collect samples of the rock. it had blasted off from japan in december 2014 before reaching the asteroid in june 2018 it touched down twice on the asteroid. once in february last year when it fired a pellet the surface of the rock to kick up debris it's landed again 5 months later to collect dust and rock from the surface making it the 1st pope ever to achieve this this is the moment a team of researchers realized the capsule and the safely returned home to. japan's

air space exploration agency confirmed the capsule had successfully separated from a higher dose or 2. it's this is a challenging operation the required precision control 220000 kilometers from. it traveled much farther about 300000000 kilometers having passed over to the sun for 3 years space enthusiasts in tokyo reacted to the sneeze. by night all i heard that if the separation did not work i have to say itself would crash into the earth i'm really glad that it was successfully released my heart was beating a bit faster when i was watching 21 years or more with japanese technology high obesity went to a distant asteroid and came back safely i think it has the potential to prove how advanced japanese technology is scientists say they will analyze the organic materials that come from the subsurface of the asteroid it could be in the same

state it was when the solar system burst formed they say they know organic material is the origins of life but they still don't know how but the higher both had to probe and it can't go may provide some answers nor about them only to 00 let's bring in as he passed and she's a space journalist and author of robots in space the secret lives of our planetary explorers joins us now from bristol and he's a very precious cargo there but i'm stunned before anyone can analyze it they have to find it fast in the astray and up back and it's a capsule that's only what 40 centimeters in diameter but that sounds more than a little challenging. it's currently somewhere out in the outback of adelaide fortunately they are already in the progress of trying to track this thing down the return capsule is currently putting out a signal of b. to let everybody know we're a games and current the team from jack so the japanese space agency are putting

radio stations all the way throughout the outback to try and find that signal and then trace it back to where it is and so hopefully in the next couple of hours but shouldn't least know where it is and be on their way to get it and this is what happens after they find it i understand there's a bit of time pressure as well and in case it's contaminates the contents yes they want to try and get it as quickly as possible just to make sure that nothing happens to it you know that is in case it gets you know hit by animals or something like that. but once they've collected it they will then take it to a secure facility where they can be which is he controlled where they can control exactly what the atmosphere is like to make sure that when they have been to open up the capsule and get to their precious sample it's not being contaminated by things like atmosphere by dust and the only looking at was. brought back from asteroid where you speaking about that sample scientists have been talking

about possibly finding gannett material even signs of water in some of this rock can you talk us through the significance of that. absolutely asteroids are one of the ways that the poet leave the building blocks but were left over after the solar system got made so they also helped to modify the planets after they have formed and we think asteroids might be one of the main ways that water came to our planet so off to earth formed it cooled down and then something brought to to the surface possibly asteroids so they're going to try and measure the water that they find in the sample to see if it's the same colleen to the same flavor of water as we have here on earth we also think it might contain something called organic chemicals these aren't doesn't mean that biological they're not created by life but what they all is they are the fundamental building blocks of life so it might be the asteroids rose to about swore created the 1st life forms that eventually led to us

here today super exciting well this is also obviously a really big step for japan's space program especially given that things didn't go quite so well for the 1st time i understand. the 1st time did not have a very good time of it it was very unlucky in that a couple of months after it launched it got hit by the biggest solar flare on record and that's a huge amount of radiation that absolutely ruined the solar panels it was good enough that it could keep going but it meant that the engine didn't work as properly it meant that when it tried to land on its a car which was the auster or that it went to it balanced a bit and didn't quite make it properly and it ended up taking 3 years longer to get back to earth than it was meant to. and in the end only had a milligram of material on it to so they're hoping that this time it's been

a lot more successful and data that looks much more successful so far as he passed on their space journalist and author of robots in space and great to have you here with us on out of there thanks. well still ahead fair here on this news hour and supporter of jama action from the final game of rugby is trying a sense between australia and. dissecting the headlines in the midst of a pandemic let's start with some of the all the ground realities of stuck in the news coverage was the way of the one challenging assumptions and the official night listening post on al-jazeera the world food program will receive the nobel peace prize for fighting against hunger and the use of starvation as a weapon of war we ask executive director david beasley how the challenge of combating global hunger would be met in the age of the coronavirus pandemic the
