12:12 pm
what happened but protesters don't have much trust in authorities at the moment. and let's cross live now to lagos in nigeria where correspondent funny char is standing by funny you were there you witnessed this violence what happened. at 1st everything was actually quite peaceful just like during the past 2 weeks here in this neighborhood very close to a studio you will see people listening to music chanting of course and to police brutality something that they were asking for for the past weeks not just this time around the 4 years back and so yes that was just a very normal beginning but then the dynamics started to change my cameraman and me witness that people gunmen on bikes and said this site and they just started to shoot at people we were lucky enough to find one way to to to hide or to hunker down a nearby parking lot from where we could witness what is going on at the
12:13 pm
demonstration side unfortunately couldn't exit this place with a demonstration to place and the scene was rather chaotic people we're praying around us others we are singing the national anthem saying i'm ready to die for my nation and that also we witnessed people injured we carried to this area where some of the protesters actually stayed overnight so they were tense around us as well staying overnight usually and that's were some of the injured people have been a pool too so rather horrific scenes that we have witnessed last night funny who fired the gun shots. there are conflicting reports on that i can only tell you what we have seen what we have seen was people riding on bikes dressed up in come off lodge entering this place and try and starting to shoot but this is not just 2 gunshots these are massive gunshots hundreds and hundreds for at least 15 minutes with a small break and the restarting and obviously coming floods here means military
12:14 pm
know what we are hearing from amnesty international they are saying that they do have clear evidence that this was the nigerian security force that did this then again the authorities here are saying that the forces who did this they are beyond their control so clearly they're not clarifying what actually caused this mess yesterday tell us more about that official line the official line from the authorities the official line from the government and perhaps you can also put it into the broader context for us because these protesters have these protests they have been happening for weeks out of the day. exactly well the old story is just like they have been trying to apologize when these protests started the day apologized that police brutality obviously is not a good thing and they are going to help everyone a culture bill who is randomly killing civilized people going about their daily lives and so there's a lot going on that comes to the original goal of these protests when it comes to what happened last night again the state's governor here is taking to twitter and
12:15 pm
he's expressing basically his his his shock about what happened but at the same time he's also saying that he did say people should stay at home peaceful protests or should stay at home and abide by the curfew basically by that expressing that anyone who was outside yesterday was outside illegally i was protesting illegally we didn't hear anything yet from the nigerian president president hardy when it comes to what some people here are tagged as a massacre again others are using the hash tag. bloody to stay in nigeria so when it comes to the authorities there is no taking responsibility for this at this point what they're trying to do is is is is rather trying to say we are making sure to protect the citizens so please abide by the curfew stay at home until this is over funny char in lagos thank you. now to some other stories making news around the world the u.s.

a new constitution and reforms to the monarchy. and nasa spacecraft has briefly landed on an asteroid called new over 320000000 kilometers from earth now the spacecraft collected rock and dust samples that scientists hope will allow them to learn more about how planets formed and life began. down declared. the 2 words that nasa scientists have waited for since 2016 all right. when robotic spacecraft osiris rex started its journey to the asteroid. for the past 2 years of its mission to service rex has been orbiting the asteroid looking for the perfect spot to land for only a brief encounter. a few seconds almost like a kiss on the surface was all the time osiris rex had to grab rock and dust samples from the asteroid seconds that have been here in the making room.
12:18 pm
for. 2 days i don't want to hear. that but i can tell you that everything went well just exactly perfect which is kind of the hallmark of this team we have consistently beaten expectations over and over again we have overcome the amazing challenges that this asteroid has thrown at us and the spacecraft appears to have operated flawlessly it was the 1st time nasa has touched down on an asteroid but it could be a week before scientists know if and how much the spacecraft scrapped still the mission is already a success i mean i have really we actually pulled this off. if the sample collection was successful osiris rex will begin its long journey home and return to earth in 2023. and we're joined now by david brown an astronomer at the university of warwick in the u.k. welcome to the program thank you for joining us why is this mission so important
12:19 pm
good morning this is a really important mission because it will teaches a lot about the early history of the solar system we think that venue is a primordial objects so we think it hasn't changed very much since that time and so by studying the material that we get back from the asteroids we can really investigate what the conditions were like when the planets formed we can compare them to now to see how they've changed over time and how they all interact together and really learn how the solar system got to how it is now i don't know and we have to mention if this is a 4 year journey in order to search for those answers over over 300000000 kilometers the mission it's only halfway through sol so what do you see as the trickiest parts. thankfully i think the trickiest part is already done i think that was the actual touchdown untag maneuver yesterday because of the distance to venue that had to be done completely or to have to be done completely
12:20 pm
remotely it can be done in real time because of the time delay in sending signals because the surface of the asteroid was a lot more rubble strewn than the team were expecting when they 1st got there and the spacecraft how to maneuver through some quite tight spaces it seems have been successful so far so i think that was the trickiest bit and hopefully the rest of the mission should be relatively straightforward is it clear that they got what they were hoping to get from the asteroid. unfortunately not yet there were photographs taken of the maneuver as it took place because the antenna of the spacecraft wasn't points will see earth we haven't received those yet those should come through in the next couple of days and there are other tests that the spacecraft can do over the next week or so that will confirm whether it has collected material or not if it hasn't then there is an alternative site the team can try and they will have a 2nd go at this if they need to so take us
12:21 pm
a little bit deeper through the timeline of when can least start to hear for example about the results. well those photos will give us an initial idea and there's a lot you can learn about the surface of the asteroid from photographs so as those coming through we can start to analyze some of the surface data the actual material itself should return to earth in 2023 that's when the spacecraft to show you want to get back to earth so hopefully towards the end of the 2023 and into 2024 we can start to get some results and really analyze this material to see what we can learn david brown astronomer at the university of warwick thank you for. to some other news now mexico's former defense minister of salvadoran sea and flag loss has been ordered to remain in u.s. custody without bail pending his trial on drug trafficking charges the judge also ordered the 72 year old to be sent to new york for further processing he was
