9:07 pm
insist on keeping the law. while the government is kind of standing together at least that's what they're trying to do they have said that they would rewrite one of the most controversial articles article number $224.00 which basically means that if you film here a police officer and publish that image with the intent of harming that person psychologically or physically and that could be a criminal offense now the government has backtracked and said that they would rewrite that article but they have said that they wanted to maintain the law that's really important for a lot of our club because he wants to commute to his center right greatest the presidential elections the next the next president elections are in 2022 and he needs these voters in order to stand a chance to win the elections the one in paris was one of around 100 protests planned and france today how big is the pressure on the president at this point lisa. well there is

9:11 pm
far the return journey was very smooth it's being described as an historic events and indeed it is quite historic to have be samples returned to work it's not the 1st time it's happened but it is one of these sort of part of the growing speed in race to bring samples back from say the moon or an asteroid or other planets you know hopefully at some point very soon say mars so it landed and the helicopter has been out it's a big location and be discovered as be detected and of course then teams have to go out to actually secure the samples because after make sure the samples are secure and not damaged the only way some of the samples could be damaged so that's where we're at right now but of course it's very early in the morning in local time in australia middle of a night of japan when this landed but the sunshine to come help very soon in australia so they should be rushing out there to find out what's going to happen now or what's next in store for the samples once it is secure and what will happen
9:12 pm
to that precious cargo here on earth. well jack so the japanese space agency is you know a very collaborative space agency the samples that are usually distributed from a mission such as the such as this to international teams i think the 1st thing will be though the japanese and australian teams will have to look at the the samples and then they'll be distributed to your events and to the us no doubt so that people could read she investigate these samples to see what's in them to see about the the the origins of our solar system of our universe and of course the sort of pristine precious bodies that have been swirling around for billions of years and so we can find out about ourselves but also work out what sort of resources there are out there for the future of space exploration human spaceflight building bases on the moon or on mars and what have you so there's a lot to be distant discovered here that i ever said to miss and doesn't end here where does the prowl go next. well it's actually quite amazing let me get my
