to the international space station. spacex founder elon musk says it could be the first step towards opening space travel to commercial customers. pallab ghosh has more. three, two, one, zero... ignition, lift—off. up and away, spacex mighty falcon rocket. and on top, the dragon space capsule. designed to take four astronauts into space, but notjust yet. instead, just a solitary crash test dummy — wired with sensors — is in one of the seats. this uncrewed test is part of an ambitious nasa project to send astronauts into space from us soil once more. what today really represents is a new era in space flight and an era where we are looking forward to being one customer, as an agency and as a country.
6:12 pm
it's been eight long years since the country that won the space race has been grounded. the shuttle was withdrawn from service, because it was unsafe. and nasa had to pay the russian space agency to send its astronauts to the space station on its soyuz rockets. but in 2014, nasa awarded spacex and boeing a combined £5 billion contract so that each could build their own space craft. we believe in the future of space and i think it is important that we become a space exploring nation and be out there among the stars. we want the things that are in science fiction novels and movies not to be science fiction forever. we want them to be real one day. nasa hopes to use the vehicles to send astronauts into space by the end of the year. earlier, i spoke to dr david whitehouse, a space expert and also the author
6:13 pm
of apollo 11: the inside story. he told me that the spacex rocket launch this morning was a milestone in space exploration. since the shuttle was retired, because of its safety record and the fact it cost too much, the united states has only had one way to put astronauts into space and that's via a soyuz russian rocket. and having one avenue into space is obviously not very good, and there have been recent worries about the quality control and the stability of russian rocket production lines. so having another way to get into space is important and this spacex launch of the dragon crew vehicle is the first of two different crew vehicles that are going to be launched this year. the other one is by boeing, called the starliner. so hopefully by the end of the the year — and subsequent to this flight and the first unmanned flight of the starliner — there will be crewed missions and crewed tests. so hopefully by the end of year, nasa will have
6:14 pm
two ways to send astronauts to and from their international space station. and that's important for their autonomy, but it's also important that this crewed vehicle has other uses and could go further into space than just to the space station. so nasa gets what it wants, essentially, and from the spacex side of it, we heard elon musk saying it is a huge step for commercial space. he is not talking here about tourists, is he? what are the commercial opportunities in space? well, in a way, he is talking a little bit about tourists, because both spacex — the dragon capsule — and the starliner could seat up to seven people, and the starliner is going to have one extra seat available for a fare—paying customer. that could be the case for spacex. you could, as opposed to richard's branson‘s flight which just goes into space and comes straight back, you could have people paying to go into orbit or
6:15 pm
to go to the space station with these two vehicles. but you're right. this is, in a sense, not new. when nasa when it wanted a space vehicle, always went to a company and said, "build it for us, we will give you a lot of money." there has been over $8 billion given to spacex and boeing to build these two space craft. so in a sense, nasa's done what it's always done and reached out to other companies to build their rockets. but spacex and boeing are new space companies. they are faster, leaner and quicker, and they use modern technology and not rely on tweaking and improving rockets that have been around for decades. so this is an upping of the pace, i think, of getting people back into space. and nasa has said it wants to go back to the moon. it's really got the bit between its teeth. but it's saying it is not going to do it like it did in the past. it wants to do it much, much quicker. that's a space expert, dr david

whitehouse. there's been a fresh violation of the ceasefire along the line of control between india and pakistan, in the disputed region of kashmir. overnight, fighting appeared to have eased, following pakistan's release of the pilot of a downed indian fighter jet. wing commander abhinandan varthaman was handed over to indian officials on friday and is being hailed as a national hero. our correspondent yogita limaye is injammu — in indian—administered kashmir. she said the shelling is still going on. we do know that there was a ceasefire violation in the sector that's about 100 kilometres from where i am. in fact, i was there two days ago and even at that time, there was intense shelling going on. late last night, for 12 to 1a hours, we had this sort of relative calm to the line of control dividing india and pakistan. the indian side say it was pakistan that fired unprovoked and india responded. but these kind of claims are what we have seen happening
6:17 pm
over the past few days. there have been multiple ceasefire violations. people have died in those as well. yesterday, we had here on the indian side, one woman and her two children who died in shelling, because the mortar shell landed on their home. of course, there are expectations that after the return of the pilot last night, tensions might ease. but you have to remember this is a very sort of long running issue. we have had the dispute of kashmir going on ever since 1947, ‘a8. this particular dispute is about india saying that there are terrorist groups operating from pakistan, with the help of pakistani authorities, who are attacking india and that their air strikes on pakistan were a response to that. pakistan, of course, denying that they're helping any militant groups on the ground there.
