this is bbc news — i'm lewis vaughanjones. the headlines at 7:00pm... nasa calls off its second attempt to launch its most powerful rocket, artemis 1, to the moon, five days after technical problems scuppered the first. we are going to stress it and test it, and test that heat shield and make sure it is right before we put four humans upon the top of it. moscow blames maintenance problems forfailing to resume the main pipeline that transports gas from russia to europe after a three day closure. mourners have paid their respects to the last soviet leader, mikhail gorbachev, who was buried in moscow, this afternoon. manchester's mayor andy burnham warns train operator avanti west coast is in the "last

chance saloon" after its managing director quits over timetable cuts and coming up — at 7.30 a full round up of the day's action in sportsday for the second time in a week, nasa has called off its attempt to launch a powerful rocket — part of a mission aimed at eventually putting humans back on the moon. the artemis rocket was due to blast off this evening but technical problems forced the team to call for another postponement. nasa has postponed the launch of its new artemis moon rocket for the second time in a week. here's nasa administrator bill nelson explaining what happened. we'll go when it's ready. we don't go until then

and especially now on a test flight, because we're going to stress this and test it and test that heat shield and make sure it's right before we put four humans up on the top of it. so this is part of the space business. i've told you before, you know, it's it's something i'm on my flight, we scrubbed four times. we were delayed over the better part of a month. but the fifth try was an almost flawless six day mission. so this is part of our space programme. be ready for the scrubs. space is hard, indeed. the question now on everybody�*s mind is going to be, when will we have another launch attempt? any thoughts on that? well, the mission management team is meeting this afternoon. they're going to look at it.

they're going to see is there still a possibility now or are they going to have to roll back into the vehicle assembly building? if they decide that's the case, then it'll be an october launch. and october, i would say, although the window opens in early, i suspect it'll be more like the middle, because remember the first week of october, we've got another crew. it's an international crew, two international participants on the crew of four that are going to the international space station. that's right. spacex is crew five, nasa's space x is crew five mission scheduled for early october. you mentioned the mmt, of course, the mission management team. they're going to meet this afternoon and then hopefully we'll have a press conference after that. i've been watching this launch team for the past two weeks now and just impressed at how focused

and how hard they work. any thoughts you want to share with them about the effort they put in so far? i'm very proud of the launch team. they do it right. they do it by the book. they do it very professionally. and that's why we have had this extraordinary success that we've had over the years. sometimes we make mistakes, but we try to minimize those because these are human being. lives on the top of that rocket. and i can tell you, when you strap in to that rocket, you are very grateful that you've got a launch team like this that knows what they're doing. and they're not going to let you go until it's time. and you know firsthand the power of those rs 20 fives and those two solid rocket boosters from your flight. really quickly, before we let you go, you were over there at our vip area as well, had some special guests. you were telling me an interesting story about a guest you had there.

there was a young man before he was seven years old. he wanted very much to be an astronomer and he signed a document with other children. that is on artemis. and the reason that's so important, that young man named gaskin died from brain cancer. his family is a special guest of nasa here today. today he would have been 13 years old. and so we particularly recognize the family in front of all of our international and american guests today. more on this with our science correspondentjonathan amos in florida shortly.

it is still there, it is still on the ground. it has been postponed again because they couldn't stop a leak. they couldn't stop the hydrogen leak. we'll be touching base with our correspondence later on just to get a slightly better idea of what exactly has gone wrong, how significant it is and whether we will be seeing it up in space soon. russia's main pipeline transporting gas to europe will now not reopen as planned. russian state energy firm gazprom say there's an oil leak in a turbine, meaning it would be closed indefinitely. the pipeline, called nord stream 1,

has been shut for the last three days for what gazprom described as maintenance work. the news is likely to further increase gas prices. there are fears people across europe won't be able to afford the cost of heating this winter. claus vistesen is from pantheon macroeconomics . here's his assessment of the impact of closing the pipeline. uk's big problem is that normally in winter the uk imports gas from the continent due to low domestic storage. and as you can imagine, that's going to be very difficult this year, at least at the same rate because, you know, there's going to be hoarding of gas in europe. i mean, basically, europe's gas markets this year is going to be a little bit like the hunger games. everyone�*s going to want as much gas as possible to make sure that they avoid rationing. the eu will probably try to mitigate that on the continent and to some extent there will be cooperation. but the uk will find it difficult, i think, to import as much gas as it normally does during winter. which means that even though the direct dependence in the uk on russian gas is very small, 5%, you know, there's going to be a follow on effect from the fact that russian sorry, gas

supplies in europe are going to be very scarce this year. kathryn porter is from the independent energy consulting firm, watt logic. britain has these import terminals, so it has the capability to get this gas and we do have the ability to pay for it. i know that households are struggling a great deal and are very anxious about the price cap rising. and hopefully when the new cabinet is in place next week, we'll see more measures announced to support households. but the government does have the ability to borrow more money so that we can pay for this gas in the international markets. we're seeing other countries struggling with this. pakistan had a failed gas tender recently and then were seeing rolling blackouts as a result of that. not all european countries have the same import capability. germany is actually trying to install temporary import stations so that it can bring in gas by ship and is hoping to have those available at some point in the winter.

so we do have an advantage in that respect that we have that capability already. of course the energy crisis is all tied in with how the west responded to russia's invasion of ukraine. ukraine's first lady, 0lena zelenska has spoken to the bbc�*s laura kuenssberg. in an interview recorded in kyiv, mrs zelenska said that the economic impact of the war in ukraine may be tough on its allies , but although britons are having to "count pennies" , ukrainians are "counting casualties". translation: we hear that energy is getting pricier, that life _ is getting pricier. but people should understand that that is not coming through the west support to ukraine, but through the actions of russia. there is no comparison to the suffering of people here. but at home in the united kingdom, as you acknowledge, people are facing very painful choices because of the soaring cost of energy that's going to make things very tough for people. what would you say to our viewers

watching at home who feel desperately sorry for what's happening to your people, but also who feel desperately worried about their own ability to pay their bills, to keep a roof over their head? what would you say to them? well, of course, i understand the situation is very tough. but let me recall that at the time of the covid—i9 epidemic, and it's still with us, when there were price hikes, ukraine is affected as well. the prices are going up in ukraine as well. but in addition, our people get killed. so when you start counting pennies in your bank account or in your pocket, we do the same and count our casualties. these days, a woman was killed walking in a park in kharkiv. many people were injured. if the support is strong, this period will be shorter. and you can watch that full interview tomorrow morning at 9am on sunday with laura kuenessberg on bbc one. she'll also bejoined by both

liz truss and rishi sunak. let's return to our lead story , nasa's decision to again postpone the launch of its artemis moon rocket. 0ur science correspondent, jonathan amos is at the kennedy space center. high. what has gone wrong? it has been a day — high. what has gone wrong? it has been a day of _ high. what has gone wrong? it i—.3 been a day of disappointments, lots of people are starting to leave the kennedy space center. we have had flooded the tortoise, believe it or not, trotting by. we started the day with great ambition and it fizzled out. with they have to fill this rockets behind me with 3 million litres of liquid hydrogen, liquid oxygen before they can left off. that is the propellants they used to develop the thrust. the oxygen went into the rockets but the hydrogen, as soon as they started to pump it

in, they had a leak warning. they tried all sorts of solutions to close that leak off but it didn't work. eventually, the launch director had no choice but to call a postponement. we are all wondering now when we might be able to try this again. that is the opportunity to do it on monday or tuesday but not much more beyond that. one of the reasons for that is there are constraints on the rocket and one of them is the flight termination system. if this rocket lifts off and it's starts to veer off course, they will destroy it and that termination system is battery operated and that battery system is only good until the middle of next week and then they have to take it back into the engineering shared and inspected it and recharge it. we are waiting on nasa management to tell us if it is monday, tuesday or are we going to go back into the engineering shed and come back to the pad, perhaps in

the middle of october. {guild and come back to the pad, perhaps in the middle of october.— the middle of october. could be uuite a the middle of october. could be quite a wait- _ the middle of october. could be quite a wait. what _ the middle of october. could be quite a wait. what are _ the middle of october. could be quite a wait. what are people i the middle of october. could be . quite a wait. what are people there saying? what are the nasa bosses giving us as explanations? is this a normal part of the process or something more?— normal part of the process or somethin: more? , . , . something more? they are pleading for patience. — something more? they are pleading for patience. i _ something more? they are pleading for patience, i guess. _ something more? they are pleading for patience, i guess. this _ something more? they are pleading for patience, i guess. this is - something more? they are pleading for patience, i guess. this is a - for patience, i guess. this is a brand—new rocket. it contains technologies borrowed from the space shuttle system which you will remember, that retired in 2011. but this is brand—new. brand—new for the rockets, brand—new for the capsule on the top, they have never launch that combination before. they have to learn how it behaves. when you pump it full of super cold liquids and liquid hydrogen is down at minus 250 celsius, the metal shrink, they move. you have to learn how that happens. you have to tune the rocket

as you fill it with those propellants. clearly, they are not quite on top of it. they need more time, we need to understand what they need to do and when they can do it. we will get a press conference from nasa management at a roundabout for pm local time in kennedy and then we will discover if we can go in the next few days.— then we will discover if we can go in the next few days. thank you very much for that. _ i'm joined by adam baker who is a rocket engineer and space systems analyst. thank you very much forjoining us on the programme. so, we got the basic terms there, hydrogen leak. how worried should we be by that? if how worried should we be by that? if you are riding on the rockets, it would be cause for concern, you would be cause for concern, you would want it fixed before you are willing to take a right of the moon. but this is an unmanned rocket,

hydrogen leaks happen. it is a tricky propellants to deal with. nasa has been working with it since the 1960s. i'm sure they will fix it. it is a question of time. it is a big and complicated system, it is the biggest rocket that anyone has built. nasser is the organisation to do it. built. nasser is the organisation to do it, , built. nasser is the organisation to do it. , , do it. some people will say, they have had 50 _ do it. some people will say, they have had 50 years. _ do it. some people will say, they have had 50 years. it _ do it. some people will say, they have had 50 years. it has - do it. some people will say, they have had 50 years. it has been . do it. some people will say, they . have had 50 years. it has been quite a while before we went to the moon, why all the publicity and fanfare and it is not working? it is why all the publicity and fanfare and it is not working?— why all the publicity and fanfare and it is not working? it is a good oint. it and it is not working? it is a good point- it is _ and it is not working? it is a good point- it is a _ and it is not working? it is a good point. it is a first _ and it is not working? it is a good point. it is a first time _ and it is not working? it is a good point. it is a first time for - and it is not working? it is a good point. it is a first time for the - point. it is a first time for the human mission since 1972. has the technology advances then? fundamentally, no. the capsule is a bit larger and the electronics are more modern. they are still having difficulties with hydrogen that although by far the cleanest

propellant they can use, it isn't the best feel for the biggest core stage. but it is the sheer cost of this, between 4— $8 billion. i am sure there are a must to be a better way of doing this. i sure there are a must to be a better way of doing this.— way of doing this. i want to ask ou, way of doing this. i want to ask you. what _ way of doing this. i want to ask you. what is — way of doing this. i want to ask you, what is that? _ way of doing this. i want to ask you, what is that? is _ way of doing this. i want to ask you, what is that? is there - way of doing this. i want to ask you, what is that? is there a i you, what is that? is there a cheaper way that this could be done or should not be done at all? i or should not be done at all? i wouldn't say it shouldn't be done at all, humanity has a place to go out to the moon and go beyond sustainability into the solar system. but finding a way to do it more sustainably and making use of robotic small space mission is to pave the way to land on the moon, to solve some of these tricky problems and ultimately to explore ways of doing it in smaller launches. we have a smaller launch in the uk that could pave the way to help nasa get it right and get it quick and do it on time. �* , , on time. i'm sure they will say when we hear from _ on time. i'm sure they will say when we hear from them _ on time. i'm sure they will say when we hear from them this _ on time. i'm sure they will say when we hear from them this is _ on time. i'm sure they will say when we hear from them this is science, | we hear from them this is science,

thousands of people queued to file past his coffin which was flanked by a guard of honour — but he wasn't given a state funeral, and president vladimir putin didn't attend, saying he didn't have time. 0ur russia editor steve rosenberg reports from moscow. in the columned hall of moscow's house of unions, mikhail gorbachev lay in state, a steady stream of mourners filing past his open casket. there was a guard of honour but no state funeral. a sign that vladimir putin fuzz mccrimmon has little interest in honouring mikhail gorbachev�*s legacy. vladimir putin didn't even come today. many russians blame mikhail gorbachev of

the collapse of the superpower but out on the streets, muscovites old and young were queueing up to pay their respects. gorbachev had given many hear their first taste of freedom and democracy. into the bus like russia, those things are under attack. , , ., , ., attack. these people came to gorbachev — attack. these people came to gorbachev to _ attack. these people came to gorbachev to say _ attack. these people came to gorbachev to say thank - attack. these people came to gorbachev to say thank you. i attack. these people came to i gorbachev to say thank you. you attack. these people came to - gorbachev to say thank you. you gave us a chance, and we lost this chance. ., ., ., . ., chance. the end of an era. we hear that phrase — chance. the end of an era. we hear that phrase so _ chance. the end of an era. we hear that phrase so often, _ chance. the end of an era. we hear that phrase so often, its _ chance. the end of an era. we hear that phrase so often, its meaning l that phrase so often, its meaning has almost been by looted of mikhail gorbachev really does mark the end of an extraordinary era in his study, a rare period when russia was opening up to the world, when people here will be given free and went east and west pledged to live together in peace. as his coffin was

carried from the building, a final round of applause. before his final journey. most presidents were buried in red square bus for the last leader of the soviet union his final resting place is this moscow cemetery. mikhail gorbachev wish was to be buried beside his wife. he loved power but he loved her more. a £2 cap on bus fares across england has been announced by the government. the move could save people around 30% on the average fare. up to £60 million is being provided to subsidise the scheme. 0ur reporter mairead smyth brought us more details from huddersfield. the price cap comes in from tomorrow, in fact, here in west yorkshire. that's because of a deal that's been struck by the combined authority mayor.

she's been working with the combined authority to try and bring in that reduction in single fares going to £2 from tomorrow. it should save people around £1.50 per singlejourney. a similar scheme coming into effect in greater manchester tomorrow as well. the single fare again, £2 for adults, just £1 for children. but here in huddersfield, the change has been largely welcomed. to me, it is a no—brainer. there is no point in taking the car and then paying for parking fees and everything, and so, to me, obviously, the cost of living and the fact it is saving money at the end of the day. right now it is costing us really too much so if it is going to cost us £2, not more than £2, that would be really amazing. it is good to come to library to work but it costs, you know, like, more than £4, you know, £4.50 for a day ride, and you know, now we can come every day. i only live five or ten minutes away and it costs me

£2.20 to get into town. you could walk it. so, yeah. i think it is a lot better, if i am honest, because having to pay for children that, you know, five years and older, it is costing me £15 normally for a trip, for a day rider for myself and a day rider for my children, and it is extortionate, absolutely extortionate, but it is cheaper than petrol and cheaper than driving, so... as you heard, lots of people really supporting this. and it's notjust the single journeys that are going to change. you can use a whole day ticket for £4.50, so that should make a big difference as well. and the changes here in west yorkshire will actually last for a whole year and will increase from next september in line with inflation. now, nationally, the change won't come in untiljanuary, they'll last just three months. but the government says the idea is to really give people direct help when the cost of living is spiralling. so changes here in west yorkshire

a lot earlier than the rest of the country from tomorrow. and the same goes for greater manchester. from monday, millions of people in england and scotland will be invited for their autumn covid booster vaccine — with care home residents and staff among the first to receive it. a recently approved moderna vaccine will be the first to be used — and today the uk health regulator has approved another, made by pfizer—biontech. long covid in children is believed to be extremely rare — but for those who suffer from the effects, it can be debilitating. now a number of specialist clinics have been set up in england to help treat the condition. luxmy gopal has been given access to one of them in west yorkshire. frey was an energetic girl before she had covid last september. now,

as quickly as possible, and if they are prepared to do that, then they're in there in the last chance saloon, but they're going to have to show that they can do that. but if they can't, then they should have the contract removed. it's as simple as that. avanti has said drivers who are members of the aslef union have been refusing to do overtime, which has put pressure on services. the union denies this, accusing the company of a lack of recruitment. rail expert tony miles says there's no quick fix. there's a fundamental problem. the railways, right back to british rail days, have relied on train crew working overtime to make up the numbers. if they want to do away with that, it's going to take years to recruit additional workers. if they want them to work their overtime, at the moment, that means the government's going to have to get involved in sorting out the industrial disputes. for passengers on avanti trains they'll be hoping the issues can be solved sooner rather than later. we've been hearing a lot from passengers about avanti in the last few days. they're talking about crowded trains having to stand for two hours plus.

avanti west coast has apologised to customers and said that they're working hard to restore the timetable in a sustainable way. the department for transport has said it's in regular contact with the company regarding its performance. juliet phillips, bbc north west tonight's manchester. south wales police have apologised for the first time to relatives of a somali immigrant who was executed in cardiff in 1952 after being wrongfully found guilty of murder. mahmoot mattan's conviction was quashed 24 years ago after his family argued that he was the victim of institution racism. danielle fahiya reports. they killed my grandfather. they convicted the wrong man and hung him for us. mahamud martin was accused of an horrendous crime, the murder of cardiff shopkeeper lily wolpert in 1952. my grandfather was picked up because he was a somali immigrant.

he couldn't speak much english. the police withheld a lot of the evidence. just six months after the attack. he was the last man to be hanged at cardiff prison. the family of mahmood mattan arrived at the court of appeal this morning, hoping forjustice. after over four decades of campaigning, his name was cleared. but the effects are still felt by the family. it's notjust one life they took. the three sons, then went through the stigma of their father being a murderer, and then how troubled they were from their own upbringing. they abused alcohol and sadly died from it. if his father wasn't. .. ..killed, hung for the murder that he didn't commit then. i essentially still have a dad today. south wales police has now issued

an apology for police's role in the miscarriage ofjustice. it's absolutely right that all of us who are concerned with criminal justice in policing should recognise the wrong that was done and the damage that it did to a family. i know about the apology through the bbc. on behalf of the family, i do accept the apology. it's quite sad that they're no longer here to accept any apology. and there was no apology given back when they were here. now it's time for a look at the weather with nick miller. hello. wettest across western parts of the uk today. there are some met office weather warnings out there for the rain, for example into northern ireland and parts of scotland. so do have a look at those online. as we get on into the evening of tonight, some of the heaviest rain across western parts will begin to ease before pepping up again later in the night. area of rainfall pushing further north through scotland. the showers that have developed into parts of england will begin

to fade away. quite a warm night out there. we start tomorrow with heavy rain, windy conditions in northern ireland
