. nessa has ruled out another launch attempt in the coming days for its ask miss one moon mission. the u. s. space agency had to postpone lift off of its giant rocket earlier on saturday after a fuel lake. it was the 2nd time in a week that a technical issue has derailed. the mission. nasa says the leak is too complex to fix and a matter of days and a 3rd attempt will be delayed until at least late september. ellen fisher has been on standby at cape canaveral. this is artemus launch control at a t minus for hours and 45 minutes in counting. the rocket was primed. the count don't underway. but his feeling of the giant rockets began. it became clear that in that famous phrase, we have a problem. the last name has a recommendation of no go for launch to the nasa test rector and launch director a leak on the link pumping liquid hydrogen into the tanks was found. engineers run through the plans to fix it. lots rector turley back, while thompson just called,
7:03 am
ah, a scrub. but in the end, i to admit defeat the launch scrub the for saturday. we do not launch until we think it's right. and these teams have labored over that and that is the conclusion that they came to. so i look at this as a part of our space program, of which safety is the top of the list. it's the 2nd time in a week the much the 8 optimist project had to be stopped short of launch on monday . it was an issue traced back to a faulty gauge launch period. 25 is definitely off the table. we won't be launching this period ends on tuesday. we will not be in launching in this launch period. launch period 26 and 27 will really depend on the options that the team comes
7:04 am
back with likely on monday or early tuesday morning. thousands of gathered in the parks and on beaches across florida to space coast, hoping to see a lunar launch only to leave disappointed my brought friends with us and our share in our friends son's birthday. hoping the big candle to go off, but it didn't in unless you've ever seen a rocket go up. there's nothing like its heart pounding. shake your whole body and it's just something to say our committee has been plagued with delays with overruns and with a soaring budget. but nasa believes that even a short delay is worth it for a mission that will stretch over years and stretch the frontiers of space. alan fisher, i'll gita cape canaveral, florida. terry versus a retired astronaut and former international space station commander. he says nessa will have had a good reason to cancel the launch. having been in situations like that,
7:05 am
there's teams of engineers looking at their computer screens trying talking through, you know, can we try this have, why don't we try that? nasa has been doing that now for over 60 years, so they, they tried a lot and they said no one wants to scrub, but no one wants to want. even worse than scrubbing is launching a rocket. that's not safe particular. well it's a rocket scrub. i mean, i was at nasa for 16 years and you know, the shuttle was constantly scrubbing my 1st shuttle flight. there was a thin layer of cloud and we had to wait until the next day. rocket scrubs are nothing new we've been. we've been delaying rocket launches now for 60 years, so that i don't think it's too terrible. although it's we not only have artemus space. x is building a very heavy rocket. blue origin also wants to build a big rocket. so there's not only competition with china, but there's competition internally in america. and so there is some pressure, you know, to get things moving because there are others looking up and wanting to launch also
7:06 am
. so competition, i think is a good thing. the international atomic energy agency says this apparition, nuclear power plant and new crime has been disconnected from its last remaining external power line. but the facility is still managing to supply electricity to the grid through a reserve line connected to a nearby thermal power station. only one of the 6 reactors at the nuclear plant is now functioning with earlier russia accuse ukrainian forces of shilling near the facility. gabriel elizondo has more from cave. well, the security and the safety situation are very both very tenuous down in the separation nuclear power plant at this very hour, precisely because there was this main power source on the plant, the last remaining permanent power source. there. as you mentioned, the 3 others had already been knocked out during the war. this one went down. that's the bad news. the somewhat good news is that there's backup power system was
7:07 am
able to kick in. and that is what is providing power to the nuclear facility at this hour. but that is not the ideal situation. this is essentially running on backup generators, if you will, to put it in sort of simple terms and you never want to be doing that at a nuclear power plant such as this, especially one is large as this is the largest in europe and provides over half the energy to all of ukraine. so this happened now also at a very critical juncture, was just about 48 hours ago that raphael grossi the director general of the international atomic energy agency, visited the power plant. he's left in a reporter in speaking to the media 24 hours ago so that he was very concerned about the situation. and there are still several i. e, a staff members professionals that are there at the plant and they are the ones
7:08 am
that reported the current situation. so they're monitoring it very closely with their ukrainian colleagues. but let's also remember that this plant is controlled by the russian military right now. russia's state energy company goes prom says siemens energy is ready to carry out repairs on the north stream. one gas pipeline to germany. but there is no were available to carry out the work. gas prom announced on friday that it will not resume gas delivery through the pipeline after a 3 day shot down, citing an oil leak. but the european commission says the move is under fallacious pretences and shows moscow is an unreliable supplier. a former us president donald trump has called the if the i search at his mar lago residence last month, a travesty of justice. he also had back at his successor and current president, joe biden, after he labeled him and his supporters as extremists. trump made the comments at a rally in support of 2 republican nominees for congress and pennsylvania. it was
7:09 am
his 1st public appearance since the f b. i right, joe biden came to philadelphia, pennsylvania to give the most vicious, hateful and derisive speech ever delivered by an american president vilifying. $75000000.00 citizens, plus another, probably 752800 and 50. if we want to be accurate about it as threats to democracy and as enemies of the state, you're all enemies of the state. he said the enemy of the state, you want to know that the enemy of the state is him and the group that control him . mike, hannah has more from washington d. c. in a speech that lasted well over an hour, donald trump repeated many of the claims he made before repeating his baseless claim that the 2020 election was stolen. he lashed out at president biden for
7:10 am
accusing him and his maga. movement of being a real threat to democracy. he also accuse the f, b i and the department of justice of being weaponized by the, by that administration. the somewhat ironic from someone who it must be remembered, fired the director of the f, b i and demanded absolute loyalty from the department of justice. this is what he had to say about the f b i search of his home. a few weeks ago you saw when we witnessed one of the most shocking abuses of power by any administration in american history. the shameful raid and breaking of my home moral argo was a travesty of just that made a mockery of america's laws, traditions, and principles. before the entire world, the entire world was watching and there shot. but the speech was also notable,
7:11 am
not for what trump said, but what he didn't, there was no mention of why he took the controversial documents from the white house in the 1st place. why his lawyers certified that they'd been returned when the f. b. i searched revealed that in fact, they hadn't, so many questions remain that we're not answered within tram speech. he also did not repeat the claim that all these documents were declassified. something that has been made in social media. this is the type of statement that the f b i would lean in to should there be an investigation into obstruction of justice. why are both leaders in pennsylvania at the same time? well, it's an absolutely critical states in terms the mid term elections at play. the central role in 2016 and in 2020, when biden won at 580000 votes, and that's likely to repeat itself in the mid terms where among other things pennsylvania could well decide who controls the senate. after november,

7:17 am
week, president vladimir putin paid respects to corporate job. but he skipped the funeral, citing his busy schedule. prudent once said he considered the collapse of the soviet union to be the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the 20th century. hungarian prime minister victor urban was the only western leader to attend. the kremlin has been so far, quite respectful of, of li issues because garbage was not received the strong leader and put in one still and appears to be and, and, and betrays himself as a strong leader. ah, how much of gorbachev was often respected, revered, more in the west than at home in russia? his annual. that's why did you just curious to be honest, i had a warner more that i live in the television advert from the 1990 s. i got about you all out unfortunately,
