the most hill talk through the headline to challenge the conventional wisdom. italy . that's the right wing party for tele d'italia is the head in the post. good, a decisive victory overcome the gridlock faced by recent government. the listening pros examines and dissects the world's media. how they operate and the stories they cover with rising prices, causing hardship and discontent across the globe. we report on the human health and not to attempt a tackling the crisis. september on al jazeera part of the central must always on good love god, we are the one grappling the extra mile. where are the media? don't go, we go there and we give them a chance to tell their story. ah, this is al jazeera ah

hello, i'm carry johnston. this is news are alive from coming up in the next. the countdown clock has stopped. nasa postpones its 2nd attempt to launch a giant rocket art of as to the moon. the last leader of the former soviet union, mikhail gorbachev is laid to rest in moscow. politicians in argentine is now a house of congress to hold a special session to condemn the assassination attempt against the vice president. christina finance is to cushion and a new knife in the world destroy pakistan's at devastating floods force pregnant women and girls to give birth in shelters. and it's for sabrina williams has played what looks set to be the final match of her career? one of tennessee is all time greats bowing out at her home grand slam in new york. ah,

ah, it's 18 gmc tpm in florida where nasa has postponed the launch of his optimist one moon mission just hours before it was expected to blast off from the kennedy space center where he's lot of pictures of the nasa rocket on its launch pad launch was cancelled last week due to engine problems, while the head of nasa said a decision to stop and launch was the right one. we will go when it's ready. we don't go until then and especially now on a test slide because we're going to stress this and test it and test that heat shield and make sure dr. before we put for humans upon the top of it. well alan fish and joins us live from cape canaveral in florida. what more do you know about this? about it? while they're looking at the data from the aborted launch to see where the problem

was, they think they know. and whether or not it can be relatively easily fixed or whether or not the whole launch of optimist will have to be put back not just days, but perhaps weeks, possibly even into october. know as they were fueling the rock, you've got to prove liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen no problem . but there was a leak on the line going on the outside with the liquid hydrogen. they tried plenty to fix, it didn't work and they ran through b and c. those didn't work in at that point. the launch team went to launch the right because that we don't think this is going to happen to be looks like we're going to have to pull the plug the launch director. looked all the data, spoke to senior people and decided there would be no launch, which is a real disappointment for the thousands of people who came to this part of florida hoping to watch a lunar launch on the space coast. if you look down the beach, you can see there are thousands here. no, there would be here normally because it is a holiday weekend in the united states and people would head to the beach with such

lovely weather. but a lot of people did make a special effort to come along here just to view the launch. so the left very disappointed. we spoke to one man who was here with friends. it was his wife's anniversary. it was a friends our son's birthday. they hoped they were going to mark the occasion with a giant candle going off and about anywhere between 17 and 30 minutes time. of course, that's simply not going to happen now. and we wait a decision from nasa about whether this is just a temporary halt or whether there is more substantial repairs required when deed and a disappointment, as you say, it was reaction been like her. while even beyond those shows, we can see behind well, clearly this is a major disappointment. no one wants to be planning a space launch and here those cliched the and fatal wards we have a problem, but that is clearly what happened here. you had from bill nelson, he made the decision that he wasn't going to push ahead with anything until

everything was absolutely safe across this area. we met people who were here for the launch, one man who had arrived on yesterday. he was walking on monday during the last aborted launch, so he'd get the chance to see the rocket go into the sky and now we'll go back to work if it's going to be tuesday or wednesday. perhaps monday before the rocket launches. the will know in a couple of hours, but they're hoping that they'll be able to launch maybe monday or tuesday. there's a couple of windows there that they can do that they can work with the weather and would be right for the launch teams. that decision will have to be made pretty certain. if they can't do it, then they're going to have to wheel the rock, it essentially back into the workshop. and that means everything could be postponed till the middle of september. perhaps even eli october, it would be a disappointment to nasa if that were to happen. but they are looking at the big picture. this is a project which will last over several years and will expand the horizons for human

kind going into space, creating a base on the moon, sending a mission to mars, and perhaps even probing space even further beyond that. unfair sharita cape canaveral forest, thank you. or for oak, el baz is a former nasa scientist. he says a space exploration will foster new technologies around the world. russia was leading and then america led by the through the polar program. and now china as entering the scheme and version and more china wants to say we are as good as anybody else. the cost is for developing all kinds of new technology. the reason that i'm talking to you and you could see me and my picture, and i see your picture and people everywhere and they can see our pictures in south america or north america or, and china get they can see. yes. and can you, does that? did not come from somewhere and somebody's in mind that came from spending money

for the apollo program so that we would be able to see that or not so to be able to direct them. that's where they'll be able to see if there is a problem there. so all of the technologies that were developed for that apollo mission to the board is now in the computer business. because the computers themselves, the 1st computer, was a computer to, to get a copy, get it on the machine so that they can actually verify their position, looking at stars, so that the, to make the can coronation, which is very tough can produce. now all of these kind of traditions can be done on a computer that you can carry in your and all of this came from the apollo exploration of the most of the results of the experiments for the mission. so whatever is being spent on the potential mission store to move and to mars is beneficial to all human beings and earth. the lost leader of the former soviet union has been buried in moscow. mikhail gorbachev died on tuesday at the age of 90

. 1 was interred during a sermon health at the lower the vietnam cemetery. and next to his late wife, president vladimir putin did not attend out as a recently haunting, has the store. thousands have lined the streets of moscow to bid farewell to the last leader of the soviet union. mikhail gorbachev was credited with changing the course of the 20th century by indian. the cold war president vladimir putin has paid his respects, but is not attending the funeral. other western leaders are not attending either. the kremlin has been so far, quite respectful of, of li issues because garbage was not received it strongly to inclusion wants to and appears to be and, and, and betrays himself as a strong leader. ah, forgot about your gorbachev was often respected and revered, more in the west than at home in russia. eliza knew all this. when did you just can

you step in the bed a walnut more that highlighted in this television advert from the 1990? i got you all out. unfortunately, what about you did not make russia part of the west because the west didn't want that to happen. war but you're certainly wanted it to happen. he went on to win a nobel peace prize after signing a disarmament treaty with u. s. president ronald reagan removing a host of nuclear weapons. joe biden sided this achievement in his tribute saying the result was a safer world and greater freedom for millions of people. the treaty was the beginning of the end of the cold war, one state after another broke away from the soviet union. and it wasn't long before the berlin wall fell, failed against him. later came a failed to by hard liners in moscow. the soviet union itself was dissolved,

and gorbachev resigned and can yet now more than 30 years later, with rushes invasion of ukraine comes the danger of a new cold war zone. an awful slant unstable to president putin, russia, hundreds president, digging new trenches in europe and have started a horrible war and ukraine. it's now we think mikhail gorbachev and realized what he did for our country and all of europe. gorbachev died at the age of 91 in moscow hospital after 2 years of serious illness. and while he was hailed as a man of peace, he is left at a time of war. leah harding al jazeera international atomic energy agency. it says this operation, nuclear power plant and ukraine has been disconnected from the network for the 2nd time in a day. and one of the reactors has stopped. it said that another react to continue to operate well earlier on saturday. rushing back to officials said the plant was

knocked offline by shutting or gabriel, as on to joins us live now from t. if so, what more do now about this set? second incident, or the power plant going offline? well clearly the situation at the separation nuclear power plant in southern ukraine is very tenuous at this hour as a the international atomic energy agency reporting that as you just said, that the plant lost connection to the last remaining external power line. there were pre, primarily, there were 4 power lines. 3 have already been knocked out because of the war. there was one permanent, one still remaining. that was the one that was temporarily knocked out on friday and put down. that is the bad news. a somewhat good news though, as the report officials there did say that electricity has

continued to flow to the nuclear plant through the reserve line, which is critical. so that is keeping the nuclear power plant functioning safely, at least for now. but just gives you an idea of how the situation is very, very tenuous. now the plant is located in the city of n. oh god, a city of about 50000 people and our sources down and in around that city say there has been showing in the city throughout saturday at points. this is a city that is controlled by russia. russian forces the nuclear power plant is controlled by russian forces and russians. but it is right on the front line and it's right near the area in and around the area where the ukrainian military is conducting a counter offensive in the song region in that southern ukraine there. so you just

get a sense now, this all comes now just a little after 48 hours after raphael grossi the head of the i a visited the nuclear power plant and said he was quite concerned about the situation there. it's important to remember now that electricity and power is so critical to nuclear power plants because it has to be kept cooled for safety reasons. if a nuclear power plant ever permanently loses or even temporarily loses all electricity, it could lead to an incredible nuclear disaster. so that's why the power is so critical to the power plant and is on the in key. thank you for that updates rushes energy. don gas problem says it will not resume gas delivery to the north stream. one pipeline to germany, after 3 days shut down, the company says an oil equals detected and repairs on needed. the repair commission says the movies under fallacious pretentious shows rush is an unreliable

supply of gas from says it will now ship natural gas to europe through ukraine. well guys prompt decision that came hours after g 7 nations agreed to set a price capital in russian oil in an effort to hurt moscow's war efforts in ukraine . finance ministers from the world's richest economy is also cap on food orland petroleum products with juice, global energy prices. russia has responded. those things will stop selling oil to countries that agree to a price limit. built in the found partial cuteness. taking another step towards cutting supplies, it would be a violation of the contract. everyone hopes that will not happen. if it happens, it is clear that there will be consequences, but it is also clear that we've been preparing for months with this risk. so we must not underestimate, but certainly we are not going to be intimidated by tomorrow. edelman use our including salon because ousted preston by roger fox. the returns home of the he

fled, protest triggered by economic crisis. unexplored little food costs are due if you continue and the will be with a penis. congress has held a special session to condemn the attack and not unseen. as vice president, christina finance, the coach that she survived the assassination attempt outside the home and but as far as on birthday and that was arrested after pointing a loaded gun in her face, which failed to fire. one cannot give, joins us live from one of ours. tomonica. what was the main purpose of this congress meeting? well, this was a meeting of the house of representatives. ah, the aim of this meeting was to show unity all political parties in the presence of some foreign ambassadors. would all ask for a 4 on piece in,

in social peace in argentina. and would pronounce itself against bob violence against a political violence and hate speech. um, and that did happen, a resolution was approved, but our divisions continued in this very polarized country. christina and, and as the kiersten are, she suffered her attempt in the midst while the government is facing an economic crisis. inflation yearly inflation is over 70 percent of the government's popularity is very low at this moment. and all of a sudden this attempt at her life swayed public opinion. people took to the streets on yesterday to show support for her and for democracy. and this is happening while she's being investigated by justice on corruption charges.

and prosecutors have asked for a 12 year prison sentence for her. but now of course, matters of change in people are just talking about how she almost lost her life. when this person, i pulled the trigger and a gun which failed to fire. a monica, what more do we know about? that's a st. well, he refused to testify. he saw being held in prison now, but he did not want to pronounce himself his girlfriend and a friend of his came out to say that he, ah, that he sold cotton candy on the streets. they said that they knew nothing of what was going to happen. they feared for their lives because they're being attacked on social media as terrorists. ah his tenant ah, person that owns the apartment where he lived in said he's a very said there was nothing unusual about him. ah,

but the police did find in his house. ah, 100 bullets. nobody knows the reason why he would attempt against ah, christina, had none this dickerson's life on a car. you not give. thank you for that. i shall anchors former president, go to bar roger pack said has returned to the country of the 2 months in the self imposed exile. he was taken to a government bungalow on the heavy security of to landing shortly before midnight on friday. and l fernandez reports from columbus, he fled as president of sri lanka would returned on friday with no where to go. goes up a raj, not so flew back nearly 2 months after he fled. angry protested. who blamed him for pushing the country towards economic collapse. he resigned while he was abroad. dozens of m. p 's from his governing s l p. p party were at the airport to welcome him. those involved in the protest that led to raj boxes exit like manual

a summer 2nd to say he has the right as a citizen to return. but we strongly believe that he oh he is responsible for the crime crime. lot of times as well as are regarding putting up this country to the situation that we are in right now. so 1st here there's to be a fast track, our investigation into other issues that he has created. and he has to come out to the legal system it he has to face the legal system. the former president has moved into this government residence. senior security sources have told al jazeera his wish to move back to his private residence in columbus above was denied because of security concerns. oh goodness. in the game, the target of movement whole, the good a good campaign. 2 years into his term protest as blamed him and his government for

mismanagement bad decisions and corruption that draw felucca to its worst economic crisis in memory. it's incumbent therefore, upon the government to ensure that there is accountability in place with regard to got arbitrage boxer. and apart from that, he can live a normal life, i presume. although of course, you know, can he get about, can he be seen around in public is a question that he left the chart. raj parts loyally see, it's too early to indicate what the former president will do now that he's back in the country. after nearly 2 months of trying to find a place to settle, the former presidency have run out of options. having slept to par with unprecedented popularity. gotta be roger boxes found out the hard way. that being a wartime leader doesn't always guarantee success in peacetime manner. fernandez audra 0 colombo. let's bring in m a samantha ran now he's an opposition member of

the shrunken parliament and joins us from colombo. welcome to the program. so what do you make of this return? i think before got our, our departure resigned from singapore. he extracted a guarantee that if he ran out of options that he will come back to see lanka and that he'll be afforded all security added the ability to continue to live in sri lanka. i think it is upon that promise that he are actually tenderly designation. but how is the population likely to react to this then? well, the population i wanted to resign. i don't think anyone who protested wanted him to flee the country the way he did. now that he is back, they'll probably want him to answer to various charges of mal

administration. what are worse than where he has cranes that he is accused of having committed, even during wartime, and thereafter. and amid all this, some in economic issues as to very much the forefront on them, it will take time for things to improve. well, it take a lot of time. do you fool up and running? are we clever signal was now become president, because got our bit, i did bucks that made him prime minister 1st and what i bit i did, but says party support and donate to become a single debate. that host is all part of us. he ah, that day during these difficult times. perhaps sir, and i will become a senior. should s t the ship, but keep the see taught for that either but says to return. and as we suspected,

now the situation is changing. how we are that i devote says i time to make a come back. but as you said, the garbage situation will take quite a long time to improve. so anybody's guess as to what'll happen next, i'm having returned. does he really expect to live a normal life now after what's happened? he probably her wooden bear stepped out of the stream set by himself. but what we've heard is that he's been given an, an additional a special security. so he will have to keep it a head noun and a mile away the rest of his life, even if he could use to live in silica and how do you feel when you see this kind of uncertainty in the country. but it's very unfortunate that that i did,

but says allow fool ran away with the lord in this fashion. he would nowadays double account every d. v less for what they did or bad decisions apart. the kind of corruption that was ramp and penned the whole country it knew about it. and in addition to human rights violations and so on. so the country are, you know, are we thought came to aid sensors? now, when it demanded that i de boxes are, we all stood out from the seats of power, but somehow they have were survived up to now they have been placed a person. oh who are dead past the indicted? recover singer and had therefore been to make a comeback. it is up to the citizens of this country. oh, a not keep dead resolve not to let a couple of details come back and take on board of the country again. m a samantha

ran thank you very much indeed for joining us. now millions of people have been displaced by the worst floods in pakistan's history. among them are thousands of pregnant women with no access to maternal facilities. same as raffi has met some of them taking refuge in a vacant government building in the city of soccer and sing province. a woman poised to bring new life into a world stricken by calamity. families weighed down by poverty so extreme. it is a burden carried from birth. no, i don't have anything nor money, nor axes to adopt a nothing. i don't have any support. i could die. my baby could die. i don't have any money or a doctor. i don't have anything, nothing, no food or drink, no medicine, not even a pill for the pain home either is do anytime now and has been suffering for days.

twin brothers are and must say. now 10 days old, came with the last wave of monsoon reigns, their mother fled baluchistan province with them in her belly. but the floods followed their father is still their roads cut off, and they have no way home. i'm on them a lot of but i have big hopes for them in my house. but look at these kids, what conditions they ruined sitting here hungry. no bed lying here in the hate. she needs help. she says her children need help. ah, displaced by floods and seeking shelter, survivors occupied this government apartment complex in the city of supper. in every room, a story of survival and suffering. the city doesn't want them there and turned off power and water. it is hot and miserable. some tell us, it feels like a prison instead of receiving help,

they say they've been accused of occupying this place illegally and are being forced back onto the district. we've been speaking to the families in, there's about 5000 people living in this block of government class. he's been displaced from their homes by the flood. they come from all over the province as well as bullets son province. and they're telling us if they don't want to stay here, they want to go back home, but they don't have any homes to go back to. this is no place for children, but more are on the way. roxanna is 9 months pregnant. soon there will be another mouth to feed. when i ask her if she is worried, she smiles. it was here. why would i be sad? she says children are a happiness, a blessing. she's optimistic, not every day will be the same and conditions will improve. but her smile fades. oh, when her son asks for cold water, then basra,

the old da 0 sucker since the pakistan at least 20 people have been killed by suspected else about fighters in somalia is harass region. the armed group targeted a convoy of trucks carrying humanitarian aid on friday night. rescuers attempting to reach the area encountered landmines asked about has carried out several attacks against the federal government in recent weeks. ahead to her on al jazeera, this painting is hiding something to explain why it's much more than meets the sport zealand arts. the critics with a big win, the challenge ah, with hello the weather set fair as usual across a good parts of the the middle east lot so dry and hot weather still wanted to

shout was just around the southern end of the red sea, but otherwise not too much to speak of timber to still well up around the levant sir, $41.00 celsius therefore damascus. not quite as hot as we go through monday, but still plenty hot enough that heat tending to transfer a little further east with some shower sir, just stop her out of the caucasus there. we'll see some wet weather for some. some parts of the black sea also seeing a shower or 2 over the next day or so. not too many showers cross northern parts of africa, plenty of showers through central parts of africa towards the gulf of guinea. i southern areas of nigeria, single wet weather, willow, often pass, still seeing some lively showers over the next hours. have been no when there was intensely, have been in recent days, plenty of showers to over towards that western side of africa. now the western side of south africa, seeing some lively showers, some blustery condition, strong winds, winds wanting in force across the western cape through were the weekend. this system does rush the southern cape as we go on 3 monday. notice how the temperature

falls away. cape town, just 14 degrees celsius. wanted to touch as we go on into tuesday. brightest guys coming through for the north, one or 2 showers to the 10s in there. ah, the new voice is heating up the airway. lot of chinese listeners with kimberly here where they really think in their own country shifting palate a case, the rise of citizen journalism has changed everything. how do happen? it happened on social media and the undeniable impact of the mainstream narrative. australians went to the pole with those images front of mine is a war very much came forth out in the media as well as on the battlefield. they're listening page to dissect the media on al jazeera. oh, the land of the free americans never been a rural democracy. the black people would never experience that democracy may be

explored divisions and struggles and america's electoral system. a fight for and against equal representation. and the democratic process is the country that's learning how to be a democracy, but it's not there yet. one person, one vote on al jazeera, hulu. ah, watching al jazeera or minds of our top stories, this is so but unions last lead mikhail gorbachev has been buried in a ceremony held up over to the chief secretary next to his late wife. president vladimir putin did not attempt the international atomic energy agency. it says his apparition at nuclear power plant to crane has been disconnected from the network

for the 2nd time that day. one of the reactance is stopped. a single reactor is still operational. nasa had scrubbed the launch of its optimist moon rocket for a 2nd time just hours before it's expected to blast off between spain, $6028.00 hydrogen. now the us state department is approve the potential arm sell to taiwan worth at $1100000000.00. he package includes anti ship missiles and radar systems. tension has been high since us house we can answer for those explicitly. i did last month prompting china conduct military drills around taiwan. but china claims the island as part of its territory . usda will still have to be approved by congress. patrick falk has more from beijing. while the ones have come as much as of rise that beijing reacted angry to this development. so the chinese embassy in washington said that it would severely

harm china. u. s. relations and peace and stability in the taiwan straits and said that it would take legitimate and necessary counter measures. the u. s. dance on taiwan is meant to be one of the strategic ambiguity, but this will have sent a very clear signal once again to beijing that washington is prepared to back the island. and the timing is significant. despite the fact, the present biden said that the package had been under consideration for some time with it being announced. so close to this period of height and tensions in the wake of nancy pelosi, his visit. it does demonstrate to china that the u. s. won't be cowed by its acts of military aggression or attempts to change the status quo. it is worth noting that since august 3rd, they've been an average of 10 chinese military aircraft crossing the median line every single day. and an, let's say that this is an attempt to shrink the buffer zone as part of its cognitive warfare, but also to give, tie one less time to react in the events of a chinese attack. but all of this really goes to say that the stakes are getting

increasingly higher. hundreds of people have taken part of an anti government protest in liberia's capital, members of the opposition and that civil society activists. valid against what they describe as endemic corruption in president george? where's administration? it was hacked reports from monrovia o in liberia's capital monrovia, a march to sweep corruption out of the country. hundreds of people gathered with brooms in their hands for a small protest against a big problem. corruption is everywhere, says esther thompson. she says she has to pay bribes to get her children in school to get money out of her bank account, or even to get a job. but it's even worse in government, in the house of senate, in the house of representatives, in governments. that's where corruption is. in august 3, senior figures of where as government were suspended after the us treasury imposed

sanctions against them. the president's chief of staff is accused of corruption and directing warlords to threaten political rivals. the managing director of the port authority is accused of funnelling money into private accounts. and the state solicitor general is accused of shielding, suspected criminals, blocking investigations into government corruption, his wife, and we empathy government denies any wrong doing that. those sanctions will not because of the government was not targeted at the president. so if people are using these things to gain political relevance, well we, in a democracy all citizens i allowed to protest and do as they feel. but the truth is that we've done more as a government than any other administration in trying to fight graph in the public space. these protestors are marching not towards the presidential palace of parliament, but towards the u. s embassy there, hoping the u. s. could do with their government has failed to arrest and prosecute those stealing public funds. hundreds,

not thousands of people came out to demonstrate against corruption. not the numbers that organizers had hope for, but they say they have the backing of the liberian people. it's just that there is here in this country, the culture of fear when it comes to speaking against job really corruption. if dilemma worked as an auditor at the light or in revenue authority, in october 2020, she was found dead in her car state. investigators concluded miss lama died of suffocation. an accident says the government, a cover up says lamas widower muscle, steve, sponsor murder. because my wife was investigating taxes in to more 25000000000 us. hello. pier true. the commercial bank that's supposed to be deposited on the central bank and then the people who had it already falling miss lamas desk president where passed several bills and parliament witness protection act to protect those who expose corruption,

a code of conduct for government officials and a fast track court to prosecute people accused of taking bribes. but organizers of the mart say that not in their calling for a change of political culture to sweep the country clean a dirty, politic, bad governance and corruption. nicholas hong algebra, one rosier, my barrier. at least 10 buildings have been destroyed off to a petrol tank who exploded in oregon state and south west nigeria is believe the truck over turned off the driver lost control since posted the aftermath of the destruction to social media. no one was killed or injured. now go into the moon is about more than just exploration. it's part of a new international space race to exploit new resources. well, the focus is on the u. s. right now, but other countries are investing in their own mission. russia has announced plans

to withdraw from the international space station to focus on its own interest goals and includes putting humans on the moon by 2026. china is targeting 2030 to put people on the moon. it's also planning to build the very 1st lunar base and collaboration. russia by 2035. india has already sent to unmanned missions to the moon, and it's hoping to send a 3rd line the next year, knotted out of emirates, which opens its space agency 8 years ago, plans to send a probe as early as november there at pitts. he's upon a tear and programs director and chief astronomer at franklin institute science museum. he joins us not from philadelphia to have you with us. well, you must have a bit disappointed that the optimists last didn't happen today. but i was a little disappointed, but you know, we always have to remember that what we're seeing are what are called test flights . and what we see when we see the rocket sitting on the pad is really the 1st time

that everything has been assembled together. all fueled up and all the systems are activated. and there is always a possibility that in these early trials, there could be something that fails. and of course, it's better to get things corrected on the ground than to have something happen. unfortunately, during flight is a fair that this new space race is more about political power and less about science. we will never be able to shake the connection between the work that's done in achieving earth, our earth orbit and a political sort of, if you will. contest between the large superpowers of the planet. after all, that platform of orbit always gives one an advantage. point if you will, if you want to think of it that way, militarily. so we can never really shake that piece of it. it will always be in the background, although as we move forward, the hope is that human exploration of the solar system can be

a partnership among the leading space faring countries. what given what you say then and as a chief astronomer, tell us why we should all be excited by these launches. one of the things that we gain out of this weather is that one of the things we gain out of this is a better opportunity for us to understand our solar system. if we can explore the moon moon, if we can put our explorers on mars. this helps us understand our solar system. at the same time, we develop technologies for the space programs around the world that can be applied to how we all live on the planet. and hopefully they can be used to improve the quality of life for every one here. i mean, there's talk of nasa using moon. the moon, i should say, is a kind of launch pad to go even further to pot. perhaps even to mars is that even feasible? right now the way we are seeing how the technology might develop. as we gain

experience on the surface of the moon, we hope to be able to use what we learn, developing those systems that allow us to stay on the moon for long periods. we hope to be able to apply those technologies, those techniques, and that training to sending humans on to them a to on to mars. so that we can explore that planner. okay, down here on earth, eric pitts, thank you very much for joining us. thank you for having a hundreds of thousands of homebuyers in india have been waiting for years to move into their apartments. despite the shortage of accommodation to buy suburbs of new delhi have many unfinished residential towers or allegations of corruption. and some property developers have filed for bankruptcy, limited reports ah, reduced to rubble in just 12 seconds. the culmination of

a long legal battle to have these apartment blocks declared illegal in your supreme court, ordered the demolition. it also found that authorities colluded with the developer, but i feel like this is the way it was really important because this sure that got option should be it ordained that miss building was the living example of corruption. so it had to go engineer say it'll take 3 months to clear the $80000.00 tons of debris. the court has ordered the developer to refund the owners with interest. this case has put the spotlight on hundreds of thousands of bias. caught up in long legal battles. one property, consulting estimates that are about a quarter of a 1000000, incomplete homes. what more than $20000000000.00 in and around new delhi, most of them are in this suburb. no doubt. this development was planned for more than 60000 residents. the video, the book ashy ship that invested in a property for his retirement. it he has on construction has barely begun. so i

bought this property in 2014 thinking that i will get the position by 1617 to the max, and this will add on to my existing income. so and this will add under my exiting and go whatever launch i have begun for my house and all so i can set them off the government pass laws to protect buyers in 2016. but enforcement remains a week before that there was pretty little regulation on the way they functioned. so the industry is actually habituated to functioning in a certain way in which they can ignore almost everything or they're can circumvent almost every law. it's not the death of law or enough rule simulations. the developer has refunded most bias. it says it has lost more than $60000000.00 and his file for bankruptcy. many hope this case will deter developers and authorities from breaking the law. laughing at that al jazeera,

no ada india. a prize winning painting has sparked controversy in united states after it became clear, it wasn't exactly what it seemed. or this was a picture called theater. the approach spatial it won the colorado state fairs, emergent digital artists section the twist. it was made by artificial intelligence using a computer program or some in the art world say it's not fair and it's not art for the winner. jason elin disagrees with that sir. bringing richard fitz williams, he's a firm an art critic and joins us from london. good to happy with the so is this really art? i think it is most certainly and we could be witnessing now who would have thought the colorado state was way too, so to speak became well known and important our movements reflecting on times which not so rockets notwithstanding, they are irrevocably linked with sy fi,

i mean let's look at the winning painting, just not putting 3 as space or opera. theater is actually a mess. arising were walking mines, be a very much of the, the paintings of a symbol. this artist time goes tarboro in fact, had quite a considerable influence on the impressionists. it's rather like paul game of thrones. i've talked star wars, i sort of paul, maybe bill tablo. and also if you look at the coloring the echoes and indeed the mentions that he was inspired by leonardo. so this is a thing of beauty. i think the problem is somebody shock, once artist get over that they'll be able to adjust and could artists become redundant to eventually or will the human spirit always be needed? well the, that is a human input needed into this are jason. alan said that he put some 80 hours into

it, so that is, i think, very important to stress. the other thing is that obviously when the new movements and art and i'm in one, could choose either the impressionist. so the cubists. so the surrealists, i mean i'd always disturb some shops, a few people or sometimes a very large number of people is one of our purposes. look at what happens when, for example, of photography and the 19th century. i mean, that was seton, for example. the direct threat took portraiture after all and been a low competitor down the centuries. and one of the things that artists tended to do, they made it very difficult for photographers photography to be regarded as highly as an art form. but in this case, i think we're going to do more open minded. i mean, i would just invite those were skeptics to look at the work and so far as the commercial possible to some big concern of my account from artists there. well,

of course, i mean now it's generally known that this exists who i didn't know about it and then people when they buy were off work. so obviously know whether it has been created by artificial intelligence or whether it by the biography, by brush or indeed i've been considering the role. so it's fascinating. it adds to the diversity of needs. and as you say, i'm an aunt has a history of being groundbreaking over the years. does this create an opportunity for a new kind of artist and a new kind of art work? yes, i would say definitely did just as do shars, your reinhold did on the just as you had for example, works by some like bally which were completely unique. here you have a possibility of a major new off the beginning of the technical way the, this actually the artificial intelligence,

the way it's used and it can create something. i mean i, as i say, i had no idea at all about this. i think most people don't, but as people are more familiar with it though, views it in different ways and i think we could benefit us physically very, very considerably. ok. we'll leave it there which it fits. williams, thank you very much for your insights today. making our pilot who threatens to crush his air craft into a wal mart store in the u. s. state of mississippi has landed in a field upon it is in custody and his facing grand larceny and terrorist threat charges. this is the small saying which settled a tongue for more than 2 hours upon it, contacted emergency services to make the threat, which prompted the evacuation of the store and surrounding area. the succeeded plane was said i had hair on al jazeera, the sporting wild react to the final episode over serena williams. and he will be
