hello, well, something that came shell take on inside story on al jazeera, a with ah, i crush aimed as saving the earth and nasa space crossed crashes into an asteroid.

ah, i'm only inside this is out. is there a lie from coming up? ah, it's public anger grows a kremlin admits mistakes, while mobilizing reserve is suffice of ukraine. violence in mexico's captors protested. confront the police at a rally, demanding justice for 43 students who went missing 8 years ago. on the british pound, hit a 50, a low against the dollar as fees grow about the stability of the you case. ah. as one for the history books, nasa has deliberately smashed

a spacecraft into an asteroid. oh, we got it. well, it's all in the name of survival. the space agency wants to knock the asteroid slightly off. is trajectory using the double asteroid we direction test dot spaceship. nasa hopes that can repeat this in the future should space rocks head for earth and threaten humanity as get more niss. joining us live on the sky from calcutta in india is i'm a tba. gosh, she's chair of the science operation, working group at nasa. mars exploration rover mission animals, scientist, for 20 years, many thanks for joining us on the program. so this, this is incredible stuff. it's, it's, it's, it's the stuff of science fiction books. and connie episodes of star trek from when i was a kid. but this was real and it was pretty extraordinary thing to watch was in it.

yes. after that, this was incredible. i'm so you, as you said, you, if you read about of science fiction, but one thing is it is that it is very necesary. b, i'm all the we are very advanced technique of civilization. we don't have that capability to stop astrid, right? if it was heading towards and by, by this i mean, even for the smallest of s transmitter, which is like this is like a 500 feet as to right. and does, he does dangerous thing is that thinks of collided in the solar system from whenever it was found, which was by 54500000000 years ago. so the are all the asteroids essentially formed because of collisions. so even a 100 years ago, those are collision collision and duck jessica, which was 12 drilled megawatts,

which is like a 1000 times bigger than the heater she mat on so and it flattened the video for 800 square miles. so it is very important for us to have this capability. and what the approach here is, see all these popular movies go there and blow it up with a nuclear bomb. well, that doesn't work because if you think of the physics that the entire restaurant will disintegrate and still keep, keep coming at you. the approach should be to magic ever so slightly so that it misses up. and so this is what, how this mission is testing. so can you press something into an asteroid such that it in but some momentum to it such that it's velocity and it's direction changes just mailing slightly her so that you can really interesting some, i mean space though is filled with asteroids. why did they cheese this one in

particular there was no special reason. this was relatively close to it. so it was, i think they reached in 10 months and 10 months. and it was on an asteroid. it's called a binary sr, one asteroid rotating around other. so that we can easily detect a change in the motion. and of course one of best right is small enough. so you have asteroids which are $275.00 millimeters in diameter. this is, i think the radius is just um, maybe 250. and oh street. oh so, so i think its own because of both reasons not, no, not, no unique reason, but for the convenience and so that you can get the results. but if i the results, right. how tricky was it to carry out this mission and, and how long do we,

how long before we actually know if it's a success, i mean, we know impacts did take place, but we don't necessarily know if it's been diverted yet. absolutely, very good question. so we will have to observe this from a beast, telescopes, and the way you observe it is you will dig and study the position of the asteroid that was hit at multiple time points. and then from that i try to estimate its velocity in this direction. and then compare it to what is velocity and direction was before. so we're trying to see whether the trajectory as it orbited the bigger asteroid changed at all or not. so that will take a little more time. the grandbaby telescopes over time have to absorb it and come to a conformation. it asteroids have been colliding into earth as use as you've mentioned

already for years, haven't a, it's essentially what got rid of the dinosaurs. given that, is it surprising that it's taken us this long then to come up with a mission like this to prevent asteroids from hitting the yes yes it does. because so one of the reasons we think that risk is not dad. chris is because, you know, as you mentioned, the dinosaur extinction happened because of abstract, but that was 65 medium, usable human beings have not been around for that long from the primary di model human. and just as probably hop quarter 1000000 to maybe 100000 years. and if you think of modern you months, me even less. so we compared to the into the 4.5 video that's a very short time. that's why you have not experienced. and so since we have not experienced it, we don't think it's

a threat and that's why we have not been testing it. i mean, we have been testing nuclear bombs and other bumps been at you options, but we have not been testing it just because it hasn't happened before as so interesting to talk to you. i can talk to you found as unfortunately i didn't have the time. i mean, gosh, chair of the science operation, working group at nasa, mars exploration rover mission, joining the staff from calcutta and india. thank you. take, ah, the kremlin has admitted it made mistakes in its mobilization of hundreds of thousands of reservists to fight in ukraine. the move has sparked anger protests and an exodus of russian men demonstrations had been held across the country. but val has more moscow. this is an army enlistment center in siberia.

a young man opens fire, reportedly upset that his best friend had been called up to fight. whilst ill obscure is more than 6000 kilometers from ukraine, but the war is no longer distant here. restaurant done is much closer to the fighting, just across the border from ukraine. the motion here, sadness, fear, and defiance. did you? everybody is scared. the main thing is for him to come back, alive and healthy. good. i'm positive. i will come back alive and healthy. it's going to be ok. i'm a sergeant in the reserve as the reservists leave for the front line and its mission from the kremlin that it has made mistakes, implementing the draft with

. i'm with don't want you to the most of those who don't want to fight, haven't protested. they simply left thousands of cars queuing at the border with georgia. ah, frustration breaking out among those stuck in the 20 kilometer long q. those who have made it to george's capital to belushi say they feel safe here. the mortgagee, by you said there was not boat of law say raleigh v. like many others, fear that against our will. they could draft us to go and kill peaceful people in

ukraine. we are completely against this war. i can recall it for what it is. it's not an operation. it's a war which russia is conducting on the territory of ukraine for us, like for others, but scary to die and to kill others. and for what? we don't understand. therefore, we decided to flee at this time. what i need is the child ah, back of russia. sporadic protests continue. jackwoods is the capital city of the saudi public. ah, these people choose traditional dance to demonstrate their opposition to the draft . 24 of them were reported to the data, arrested. recognition by the kremlin, that mistakes had been made the, the raft may or may not be enough to calm the protest, but not maybe beside the point if russia and next is large ports of eastern ukraine, with the redrawing of the frontiers, enabling moscow to use enemies to defend what will be the motherland mohammed, one of the 0 moscow or asthma just mentioned,

separates as referendums are being held and for ukrainian regions occupied by russian forces. brushes, foreign ministers pledged full protection, any annex regions, which is prompted another warning from the u. s. the any kremlin plans sees nuclear weapons in ukraine would have catastrophic consequences. ukraine in its western allies, say the referendums are a sham and won't be recognized internationally. how the abil, hamid has more from cavity in ukraine. they for of voting. there's one more to go before the polling closes. i will, what we are hearing is where the news that is coming from really across the front lines in those occupied areas. according to, for example, the mayor of her soul or was upper region turned out is quite high in the lowest in of the 3 of these 4 region is in separate just so far,

51 percent and then it goes much higher in places like done yet. where the pro russian separate is have been ruling since basically in 2014. now there is an issue, is that what do those figures represent? how many people do they really represent? considering that ever since 2014, you had a lot of civilians leaving those areas from don. yes. and again, you had more leaving a the onset of this war in february. and then the same thing for the upper region. her son in the upper region, really the russians control only half of that region and so on. they do nearly control it all the days about the village villages that has been re captured by the ukrainians over the past few months. so what does that represent in numbers?

how many people actually voted is very difficult to find that at this stage i was example regional with our team over the last few days. and they were a lot of people coming out coming out from cities like maybe double the port of bird yags coming from separate jack coming from lou gans. and so we have these convoys of up to 50 cars showing up several times a day. so people were still trying to get out of there while the referendum is ongoing. tens of thousands of people have rallied in mexico city to mog, the 8th anniversary of the disappearance of 43 students. the group was kidnapped as they were traveling to a demonstration in 2014 and haven't been seen alive since investigator science students were handed over to a drug cartel. by corrupt police, mexico's president has appealed for peaceful rally of to several police officers were injured when violence broke out. a similar protest on friday. john holman,

is at the rally and mexico city it. oh, holly does a new slit reserve. this is not a huge rush, we've got to. 3 protest suited for various things in place. deploy some which is totally troy for one of the police had been trying to contain the situation with more now with all the frustrations around this case is now a about where submit with. 6 tried to say that it was a dying who did it, and his local police, with administration, with no such big crime didn't go make them live with right

now let's take you live to tokyo, where people are offering floral tributes to assassinated, former prime minister sion. so abbe, what's about to happen is his state funeral. the late japanese leader is for the funeral, his funeral g to take place in the coming hours, international dignitaries, a gathering for the ceremony. they was of course assassinated back in july still ahead on al jazeera will look back the life of an influential muslim scholar use if not had, are we, who has died at age of 96. in columbia, venezuela, written a board of trade out is attention. ah,

anticipation is rising and so with the atmosphere, are you ready with most of my cattle aways? hello, the weather snotty set for for china and the korean peninsula have a different story for japan. we have got some cloud and rain pushing through here. at the moment system just off shore in the north west pacific that should stay out to see, but we all got to see some rather wet weather coming to southern and western parts of japan. as we go through tuesday, push on into wednesday, a scattering a showers. what a stiff northly wind, just around our tropical system. and we are going to see a brightening up as we go on through the latter part of the day. but sadly, a case of sunshine and some lively showers coming through while she dry. there was a sad across the korean peninsula. much of china, still some walk down towards the south wheeling, getting up to about $35.00 celsius hong kong, around 30 degrees. but we will see some wet weather, just clipping the far south of china over the next couple of days. as said, typhoon norie makes its way across the south china sea. at the moment,

winds of around a 100, a 65 kilometers per hour, it will strengthen somewhat over the next 24 hours. middle pushes, weight will central parts of vietnam with some very heavy rain flooding. rain coming through, damaging wind, certainly on the cards as well. so why to stay? you can see why spread re pushing through eventually, it makes its way into laos to, with sponsored by cat on a ways i am, they related to street and they're all africa. most of the other continents, brightest legal students, putting our minds. i guess the best means in africa will really be interesting to see how we miss are gathered together for tournament. unlike any other concert, focus from what is happening. you explain to me. all right. the african card on human and people's rise is now in fest in witness africa. on al jazeera lou.

oh, watching out as a reminder of our top stories, the sir nasa has just achieved something humorous. he's never done before. the space agency deliberately crashed as the spacecraft into an asteroid, millions of kilometers, way. it's all to test whether we can stop objects from hitting earth by slightly changing their trajectory. the kremlin has a missive. it made mistakes and it's mobilization of hundreds of thousands of reservists suffice. and ukraine often spot anger protests and an exodus of russian men. demonstrations of continued across the country, including remote areas,

tens of thousands of people and rallied in mexico city to mark the 8th anniversary of the disappearance of $43.00 students. group was kidnapped as they were traveling to a demonstration in 2014. haven't been seen alive, since investigator said students were handed over to a drug cartel. i corrupt police. i love it. aunt parliament has passed its budget for 2022, a key demand by the international monetary fund for bailout package to tackle it's economic meltdown. or the official rate for customs tax revenue will be increased tenfold to $15000.00 lebanese pounds to a dollar. the government's budget is set at $1100000000.00, while revenue stands at $810000000.00. salaries for public sector workers, including the army and security forces will be tripled, many of them and less than $50.00 a month. as the budget was discussed, were tied,

soldiers broke through security code and trying to reach parliament. protesters was stopped by security. i got to go down when i am on money has been stolen. what are they discussing? the capital control or which budget they have stolen it already. what remained these nothing left? oh so no, no. well, the push to it's a shame your army soldiers like them. don't expect us. there are protesting for all the for asking for they are now right now usa all kind of diary, one of the sunni muslim world's most influential religious scholars has died. he was 96. the counselor base cleric was a founding member, the international union as muslim scholars to my child looks back on his life use of the little caught, although he was one of the slums. most famous and influential scholars during the 20th and early 21st century. born in egypt in 1926 and colorado. we memorized her

on by the age of 11 and was giving sermons. when he was 16 years old. he studied the centuries old love how university of which, many of some new slums, clerks and scholars, graduates from in his late teens and colorado, we joined the muslim brotherhood eventually becoming one of its main theological and religious thinkers and remain. so even after he left the group, his membership of the brother had led him to being arrested several times, both during the reign of king for oak, and by the regime of gabriella, the master. by 961 corridor, we decided to leave egypt due to the lack of freedom there. he arrived in a cutter, which eventually became his home. his speeches were now being eagerly listened to by muslims across the region. and even further, the late boxing wall champion mohammed ali included. and though we offered more than a 120 books, which have been translated into dozens of languages and his show religion and life

that used to be brought costs on odyssey era was one of the most popular tv programs. in the arabic speaking world, the muslim scott was regarded by his followers, a moderates, his religious edicts, or if that was included binding, female genital mutilation, honor killings, condemning the 911 wall trade center attacks and leading a delegation. so i've got to stand in a bit to convince the taliban not to destroy the centuries old, but as statues and by me on, but always unwavering support for the palestinians and their right to self determination and him criticism by western governments. he was denied a visa to the u. k. in 2008 and france also later denied him and treat following campaigns by the pro israeli lobbies. there are men. he was also a fierce opponent of a summer phobia. heavily criticizing the french bound on for job in 2004 and calling for a boycott of danish goods for the publication of offensive cartoons of the profits mohammed in 2011. though he was among the 1st to lend his support to the arab

spring uprisings, saying that it was forbidden in islam for regimes to oppress the people. and that everyone had a right to live in freedom. it was about we who gave the 1st friday sermon and to square off the single bottle was toppled. it was no surprise in the following the 2013 crew in egypt. the caesar regime confiscated the scholars assets, tried him, and then she and accused him of in fighting terrorism. unable to arrest him because he was out of the country egyptian authorities instead to change his daughter, ana, who remains behind bars in solitary confinement. a cut, although we founded several institutions in his lifetime, including the international union of muslim scholars and the european federal council. through these and his books and sermons, his impact is likely to uplift him. with his passing, the muslim world has lost arguably its most influential and learned religious scholar of modern times,

the head of iran's nuclear agency says allegations teheran breached international agreements, a fabrication by israel mohammed islam. he spoke at the meeting of the un nuclear watchdog in vienna. with the revival their ra nuclear deal is on the agenda. israel has frequently accused her of enriching uranium posts agreed limits, heat on solving a miss on iran has an exemplary record of cooperation with the agents. i mean, we would like to clarify that there are no undeclared nuclear materials or activities in iraq. all allegations are really based on falls and fabricated information provided by the occupying radio. regime mcdaniel is amec republic of around truly expect the agency to provide its reports on a more professional and impartial manner on the border between columbia and venezuela has officially reopened to being shot for 7 years. the 2 sides caught symptomatic ties back in 2019 after columbia. government recognized venezuela's

opposition leaders, president following a disputed election hurricane ins growing stronger as it heads towards the west and tip of cuba. as of people in preparing to leave their homes in the province of peanut celebry, a storm surge warning for nieces is expected. and augustin has more from havana. what was told man has now been upgraded to hurricane in and its heading towards cuba. its due to impact the island in a few short hours. now the hurricane is a cuban word. it was used by indigenous people here on the island long before the spanish arrived hundreds of years ago. and the cuban government has long been very, very good at protecting human lives in times of a hurricane. it's been recognized as a global leader in hurricane risk management by the united nations. so key amongst people's worries, apart from that, the physical safety protection the lives are the economic impacts that these

hurricane inevitably bring. this hurricane is to to test through awesome isa province, which is just west of havana. that province provides a huge amount of food, a beans of rice, a vegetables of meat of fruit, large amounts of food will inevitably be destroyed by these hurricanes. they always are. and with the food situation in cuba, already very, very difficult with long lines of food that people have been keeping up for over 2 years now. ever since upon demik, people wide about the food insecurity that this hurricane may bring in the days and weeks ahead. the valley of the u. k. pound has stabilized somewhat of the frantic early trading sward plunged by nearly 5 percent against the us dollar. markets have been reacting with skepticism since the british government veiled a package of tax cuts combined with a massive increase in public borrowing. well bred and report sterling plunge to near parity with the u. s. dollar early on monday. the pound dropping by 4.85

percent to a dollar and 3 cents that fall on top of a 3.6 percent dropped last friday. investors and analysts clearly skeptical of friday shock and or many budget by the u. k. chancellor quasi quite anchors and investors are bulky. there's a lot of inter, jess jin in terms of the amount of debt that will come on line. and given that we are a cool is a current account deficit nation. that means that we are reliant on each national, say this foreign savers to really fund that deficit. and if they don't like the fundamentals in the u. k, that are lined up for them. well, they don't have to fund it. and that's why sterling has been on this downward path . what spooked investors was fridays announcement of the you case. biggest tax cuts in 50 years? cuts that will be funded by $48000000000.00 in extra government. borrowing, walking between government offices, flanked by an assistant, the u. k. chancellor declined to comment on the markets turmoil counselor what he going to do about the term on on the market this morning. sir. i'm only going to

come in late in the afternoon. a statement was issued to try to calm investors. it emphasized that, unlike fridays announcements, further upcoming policy is due in october and november will be assessed by the independent forecasting body. the opposition labor party is here in liverpool at its annual conference in quasi crossings. opposite number rachel reeves ports school, one on the government's policy of trickle down economics said quasi quad tank was fanning the flames of a national emergency. it gives me great pleasure to introduce our shadow. chancellor. sterling is down. that means higher prices, as the costs of imports rise, the cost of government borrowing is up. that means more taxpayers, money will go into paying the interest on government debts. and in turn,

that means the cost of boring for working people will now go up to with higher mortgage repayments, the families, the government plan to kickstart growth by cutting taxes appears to run entirely counter to the bank of england's efforts to control inflation. amid intense speculation, the bank may call an emergency meeting to raise interest rates. the bank issued a statement saying that the regular scheduled meeting would be sufficient. it did those say wouldn't hesitate to raise interest rates if required. i think, until that fundamental ahead lot. so to speak, between what the fiscal side is doing and the central bank is trying to do. i think once an equation is resolved, then only we'll get more clarity on where the u. k. economy and a yuki assets are headed by mid afternoon. sterling had recovered its early losses and was trading at a $1.08, but that still more than 20 percent down on its value of a year ago. and the turmoil appears far from over paul brennan.
