that the suspect a fifty year old german was carrying out a targeted attack the son is in the photos and the german deliberately drove into groups of people who were to a large extent foreigners and. that means this man has a clear intention to kill foreigners clubs he. also notes and. investigators say the suspect has a history of mental illness but it's unclear whether that played a part in the attack police say he hadn't previously come to their attention and they were not aware of any links to far right groups. and earlier i spoke to us to while she's at the scene of the attack in both hope and i asked him how people have been reacting. everyone is relatively calm people i've spoken to. is or don't know about it or they're they're they're all quite calm there was going to be a. celebration today it's the hundred year anniversary of the foundation of the

10:09 pm
kilometers of data gathering a celebration was in order the nasa heard signals from their spacecraft that the dangerous fly by had been successful. their probe came within what must have seemed like touching distance to the frozen object called ultimate tooling this is a computer generated rendering of the thirty two kilometer long frozen rock that could reveal much about how the solar system's planets were formed a lot of pictures are due in soon of the historic flyby almost six and a half billion kilometers from earth. now the image that i'm about to show you is the best image of ultimo that we've got preflight by and it's ok to laugh but it's better than the one we had yesterday and there it is meet me also i. the mission has been likened to an archaeological dig in space scientists hope to detect the terrain and couple composition of ultimate

tooley to learn more about the ancient building blocks of planets. we have a series of science objectives one of the prime on the geology of. the whatever crater is it might have on itself if whatever fractures of the topography anything that would give us clues as to how it how it fits with. the new horizons probe launched some thirteen years ago on a mission to study pluto and its moons in two thousand and fifteen it passed the door flan it and found it to be larger then thought it then flew another billion and a half kilometers to reach ultimate tooley. but we've never been anything not only so far from the sun but that's so well preserved in this ultimate freeze. new horizons will continue on well beyond the solar system no yielding more. or until it runs out of the needed juice to send back data. and joining me now from rest of

engineer in the us is keith cowing a former rocket scientist and editor off the block nasa watch welcome to the program keith break it down for us if you would why is a rock fall far away actually that important well the far far away part is what is important because most of our solar system was made materials a four five billion years ago that it heated reforms and if you're trying to figure out what the original materials look like they're gone but if you go way out to the edge of the solar system and to as they have just done it's like going back in time and literally like being in a time machine they're now observing. piece of our solar system the sort of stuff out of which all the planets and the sun and everything else we're made at nasa we understand of course hopes to get actual images of all to today what can we expect to say that. well you were just showing a blurry image it's either vikings meant props shaped like
10:12 pm
a potato or maybe to things like this certainly around but again you saw the image it's kind of blurry but every day the pictures will get much better and if the apparently have had the accuracy that they seem to have we'll be able to see features a couple hundred feet across so this will be pretty amazing and new horizons jetted into space doesn't finish with ultimate today so what else can we expect then. well it has a lot of fuel left in a lot of power left so it could be functioning the next fifteen or twenty years they are looking for another object like old must do to leave that they could visit and who knows perhaps once they're done with it it can turn back and look at the sun and look at all the planets and take another one of these famous pale blue dot images but the spacecraft has only begun its journeys are orison a very excited to see the pictures find out more if it looks like one potato or two but for now keith cowing we thank you very much for your insights and pleasure. the
