them to collect as much light as possible that makes it more precise but it will still never be as good as we can record here on the poetry only to round the earth we obviously have no atmosphere around us so there's nothing blocking the different wavelengths of light so we can make a more fine discrimination between different types of asteroids because remember we're trying to do here is not necessary to find asteroids that are iron in them we want to find us towards the top platinum group and well worth metals the signatures are much more subtle so the challenge with the project we're going to do with e.m.c. is taking the spectrograph that we've built for telescopes on the earth so we operate a telescope out of the palm a big to me telescope that weighs 20 tons and i suspect a graph on it weighs 10 kilograms what we've got to do is try miniaturize that down into something it will fit in a cube sat it's only the size of a cereal packet must only we have a few kilograms. i'm ready i'm also ready wait wait a minute let me read just go grow up a. cube sat is the new standard of miniature satellites based on 10 by 10
4:31 pm
centimeter modules that can be assembled together their components i mean expensive . another advantage is that the small size means they can be cheaply deployed they can even be no wish to buy hands. we were very fortunate to be a news where we live in a society where you can gain access to satellite technology very very low cost comparatively speaking to the speech missions that went before us so for example or are so prospecting southlake one has a budget of 7200000 euros which is to mattick lord in space and. that. in 2018 and indian don't share put about 100 keep stamps into orbits among them was arcade 6
4:32 pm
the 1st prospecting satellite from planetary resources. to milestone in the mapping of space resources. but it also had to turn its hyper accurate senses towards earth collecting conventional imaging data that could then be sold an important way to make some quick money. because all space mining firms planetary resources had barely any income. there are arguably many challenges to be said we are talking about attain 1520 year developments a cool to see the industry to maturity our 1st phase our prospecting fees is the most economically important for us purely because if you want to develop an asteroid mining industry you have to be able to sustain yourself food to development of technology and to do it up we need to be able to pervade an economic incentive our business model is based the porn the telecast stories which compose
4:33 pm
a bit 4 percent of all total asteroids and the source system they're the ones which we are most anticipated from an economic perspective so they are the ones that we would supply off to our wouldn't claim any customer segment and customers wanted to get access to those data points we would have to be a huge premium to get access to information. we are essentially creating a market for species or cease on if. they are. not all space minus have the same business plan for planetary resources and deep space industries one resource was considered perhaps even more valuable than platinum the rand metals 1st is water ok so water in space as you or as you will come to learn is perhaps the most valuable of the
4:34 pm
materials that we will use and find in space obviously it's something that's critical to our life on earth and of course it will be critical to our life in space but what we also need to realize is that water and its constituent elements hydrogen and oxygen or the most efficient forms of rocket propellant is if we're able to successfully deploy and mine for water we're going to create a network of propellant depots of gas stations that literally open up the roadways to the rest the source of them so it's going to drastically reduce the cost of deep space exploration. 2016 deep space industries developed comments a water based space thrust. the water could be extracted directly from carbon rich asteroids. it's easy to imagine swarms of probes on their way to the rich mining fields in the asteroid belt.
4:35 pm
on the way they need to fill up at least space gas stations. are fascinating about new technologies is the promise of a new reality even if it's still only for drift through radio shack a new has a p.h.d. in the history of science. for 20 years he's. well the position that doesn't exist anywhere else he's in charge of ethics that the french national center for space studies and that humans are due to new is human. nature has given human something a little strange called imagination post the it's the capacity to project ourselves into another spatial temporal place was a new mood and this curiosity which we share with other so-called higher on a movie when you combine curiosity and imagination you've explained a big part of our drive to explore explore for tens of thousands of years humans
4:36 pm
have crossed mountains and sea we flown through the air now we're traveling through space it's source but as long as we want to remain human and we'll have to deal with this fascination in almost a fashion that you will also have to reckon with our ability to invent the things that allow us to go and explore beyond those mountains on itself and do the good it did and they. did reason this was a song list since the beginning of the 960 s. rice has been seen as the new frontier something unknown that we have to go in explore the new space concept of commercialization takes up this idea and gives it a new face a new profits a new technological appearance rockets they're committed to land on their launch pads have become an almost mythical image. and if they move we're finding ourselves
4:37 pm
in a retelling of a mythology but it should be seen as a story this yet to be written walking 3 instead of just waiting for the years to come 202020302040 we should be aspiring to build this future ourselves. and it won't be the future but simply a slightly different present. would you feel. reinventing the present requires a good business plan and space miners have to keep their focus firmly in the here and now they must convince investors with the prospect of new business opportunities in space totally so funded e.m.c. for my inheritance we had small amounts of money from the scottish government. a small amount of money from the u.k. government so we need to raise some point $2000000.00 euros over the next 6 months and order to then move onto the manufacturing of satellite we will be maintaining that places within scotland's but also adding to that by being an luxembourg source
4:38 pm
basically joining 2 dots together to make a state like. this is luxembourg a tiny nation where finance is big business is forever reinventing itself economically today the countries betting on the resources of the future. snit it's no longer science fiction we are rapidly nearing the day when we'll use the 1st space for his own service. is the 1st president of the newly created luxemburg space agency is she swallowed. by space resources are the materials found on celestial bodies like the moon asteroids mosques or other objects in the future or capris keys with different if a company wants to develop a new product or service they can come to watch he says a pretty sort only if their goals are in line with the way we want to develop
4:39 pm
a center here in luxembourg that opens the door to possible support the possibility that the focus is a company's activities have to remain sustainable been if she's usually mo different and serve the development of all humanity. in 2016 luxembourg's government invested 25. a 1000000 euros into planetary resources similar startups including deep space industries have also set up here today mitch hunter scullion has come to pitch his asteroid mining corporation projects to the l.s.a. . business is business and the meeting is confidential the stakes are high for space miners because they're looking for much more than money. the big issue is the right to exploit the resources of space.
4:40 pm
is a cute dispersed today all space activities are governed by international treaties city unfortunately the treaties are not specific enough regarding what can or can't be done with the resources found in slags group who don't espouse. since the 1967 outer space treaty space is being considered common territory for humanity nations couldn't to pro-create its resources in 2015 the united states change that passing a law or intended to boost the competitiveness of its private space sector the lure allows american citizens to appropriate resources in space in 2017 luxemburg passed a similar law for companies based in its territory. you see we wanted to be flexible but also to leave the door open to feel in hindsight there are obviously questions about conflicting activities and the available surface
4:41 pm
based on us and i still bodies do so because these are questions that i hope will be discussed and resolved at the international level and on this for not. following the united states in luxemburg many countries are interested in space resources including china which has big plans when it comes to development in space a new international treaty is being. devised which will try to harmonize the different players ambitions they might be called upon much sooner than expected because the big space agencies are embarking on phase 2 of planned space mining exploration and prospecting. 98765432. 5. 7. all we got to have for that.
4:42 pm
and all the extra money pro currently living in an extraordinary area for us drugs because there are currently 2 space missions to reach asteroids and as i also saw cyrus rex mission and the japanese agency jack says. to id community asteroids interest very diverse groups with very different goals to couple of spots right now they all need to know the same things what they are made of how are they made up and what's their internal structure. cyrus rex is an acronym for one of the s's stands for security here and of the ares for resources because even if it's primarily a scientific mission it's classified information to bring spoke well of course help minors and those workable security is a success as security. just like patrick michel and nice scientists here in the dome in the south of paris a contributing to these international missions. we
4:43 pm
must use all means to advance technology and science. marianne's an elevated she is an astrophysicist in planetology just she studies the chemical and physical nature of objects in the solar system. this precedent is a theory of the communion era exploration of asteroids for what's being called mining is increasingly interesting but before actually mining it's necessary to understand the composition and the mineralogy of these objects you never know gee this is a you have to go there take samples and bring them back to earth your premise was that. that's the process the space miners probes will go through in their exploration phases. me on that it's essential to have another occasional camera that will give us images and help us to calculate to be an initial model of the object. the oath iris recognition is orbiting around the
4:44 pm
bend to asteroids and the main goal is to survey the object and thanks to the camera we can get a full characterization of the surface. and then there are rocks different textures structures craters and. any real select several sites where landing poses no risk to the program to actually land it just touches the asteroid with its r c b call this touch and go that you can touch and get samples and he guided the arm uses nitrogen it pushes along the surface to store up the regolith which is then
4:45 pm
a more. regular thing is the thin layer of dust and rocks on the surface of the asteroid in 2019 the high abuse a to probe sent images of its 2 successful touching go efforts on. the real hugo asteroid in 2020 osiris rex did the same from the benny the asteroid when both probes are back on earth in 2023 scientists hope to have just a few 100 grams of samples. off work another of these samples can be studied for years and years more than 50 percent will be put aside so future generations can study them with more advanced instruments. these missions are technological feat but the space mining exploration phase has to be even more accurate in its surveying of asteroids the miners have to go further or rather deep
4:46 pm
. a touch and go mission is not going to a low you the confidence that the resources that you're looking for or with an asteroid you have to london your soil and you have to be able to take a core sample by being able to dock and to the surface of an asteroid basically conforms to was that the material were phonier so it is the same with you which is on the surface and essentially validates our entire business model economically viable it's going to cover material from the asteroid. the asteroid expedition to take a small core sample so it's not going to be a large core sample but it will be a miniaturized very often or exploitation missions we are going to be using space telling technology which already exists and a priest. this trail was developed to sampling on mars then adapted for drilling in antarctica it needs a little energy and exerts little pressure on the drilling surface that could make it the ideal tool for drilling in low gravity. we're going to expand upon the
4:47 pm
technology partners at the university of glasgow to get into position what is there the for commercial use as soon as we discover precious resources with an asteroid we will immediately move to freeze free space miners want to move quickly but to explore and then mining asteroids a craft will have to land on the surface here it ysaye superior to lose naomi murdock studies the interactions between space instrumentation and the surface of celestial bodies on an asteroid or in low gravity conditions things don't necessarily behave in the same way as city on earth. can. happen. murdoch is a planetary science research she's taken part in international missions like the insights mission to mars she's also been a consultant for planetary resources. one of the challenges if i
4:48 pm
interacted with asteroids is that the gravity is not necessarily constant across the surface so what that means is there might be some regions of the asteroid where you're lighter and how the regions where you would be heavier on some asteroids there's even the possibility that around the equator because they're spinning very fast the centrifugal force actually balances. the gravity. we have evidence that the surface material is moving across the surfaces of these bodies there are avalanches on these bodies. you're going to need to understand how a spacecraft will interact with the surface so here at the very superior we've taken an existing drop tower that was used for a crash test and we've rigged it up with
4:49 pm
a system of pulleys and counterweights and you have a box and you let it fall inside that box we can have small amounts of gravity to take a projectile and we let it go and we're going to have very low velocity collisions in low gravity conditions very similar to what we're going to have on a small body. these tests help to prepare the deployment of mass got one of 3 small landers sent to the surface of. they way just a few kilograms and can rebound until they find a stable landing spot but a mining probe would have to land in a specific location. so one of the ways that people have thought about landing attaching to asteroids is to see land on the asteroids are really encouraging to the surface. her.
4:50 pm
one of the problems with that is that if we are attached only to the surface material itself that surface material is not attached necessarily to the consolidated material underneath so if this material starts to lift up then our spacecraft is also going to lift up so it's very very challenging to come up with the perfect solution for haiti land on the surface attached to the surface and stay there. in that there are 2 choices either we wait until we know more about the asteroids and or hypotheses are more accurate or we send a mission to the asteroid we want to mine to study and understand it then we go back later with the tools to mine it the problem is that the asteroid revolves around the sun and just because it's accessible at a given point doesn't mean it will still be 6 months later we have launch windows
4:51 pm
which complicate things but events would be the ideal way to do it. there is another idea borrowed from nasa scientists capture an asteroid and bring it back to earth. sussex come on that's extremely complicated asteroids are generally just accumulations of material like a heap of rocks that are collected only because of their gravitational attraction until a favor even if it's weak it's enough to keep them together on the base on their known as rubble piles dogs haven't yet if you want to count. you have to slow down its rotation and they sometimes complete a revolution in less than a minute when you meet your you have to control something with very little cohesion that could fall apart of the author have to put it in an enormous sack before you make a very complicated. trick. we will be capturing small asteroids and have to tell at
4:52 pm
it and be turning them into perhaps a lunar orbit. the moon fortunately has and they'll have to fix possession compared to the air force so by putting an asteroid into london orbit your same slickly a minute of them in which everybody is quick say to pray and allays used to be free days tough to tame away from your asteroid main. ideas and just when i talk to companies that want to mine i don't want to discourage them but at the same time i'm a scientist i want to explain the complexities we took so the approach has changed radically instead of bringing the asteroid to earth and mining here we concluded that it would make more sense to do it in situ explore and then use them as resources to go further for example by making fuel if you felt like it and then seeing if there are other useful elements around for the moment only because once it. so long as scientists are interested in further research and exploration it's
4:53 pm
hard to get investors excited in september 28th seen planetary resources went bankrupt the 13700000 euro right off the luxembourg a few months later deep space industries was by brantford space an international company specializing in the manufacture of space systems they're interested in developing would have based propulsion for limited use within. asteroid mining seems to have been put on hold there's a missing link between earth and deep space between short and long term thinking one man understands this well he's a so-called prophet of new space concepts and a titan of the logistics welds invests a $1000000000.00 a year in space projects. let me show you something. washington may 29th.
4:54 pm
this is blue moon we've been working on this lander for 3 years it will software and precise way 3.6 magic tons onto the lunar surface it's time to go back to the moon this time to stay. there are thousands of creative people coming up with new ideas about how to use space but those aren't companies cannot exist today and the reason is the price of admission to do interesting things in space right now is just too high because there's no infrastructure when we have that infrastructure in place for the future spacewalks for nurse you will see amazing things happen. one of the things that we have to do is inspire the structures generations humans think in very short time skews humans think in terms of 10 years has been a long tame 50 years as being a lay frame 100 years is being inconceivable but 100 years is not
4:55 pm
a long time if you talk about it has to be funny if 100 years is a nanosecond we can do things and are lifting so when people see your dream or i would see the short sighted. and all the planet which looks put us human according to our study mining resources or water on the moon would be possible in the next decade or the other uses that we visit will develop over the next 40 years also portions and. asteroids aren't science fiction we go there we've got spacecraft there at the moment look at the nasa spacecraft asteroid beni jackson spacecraft you're right even there there but science fiction for haps is being able to mine them effectively but using these asteroids as this stepping stone for humanity to get further in the solar system seems like a good way forward for the future that i would like to see is
4:56 pm
a future where humanity is cooperating to exploit the resources of the solar system in a way that's sustainable and in a way that allows us to essentially continue to flourish scientifically as a human species to explore the solar system sniffy. i have no illusions about it if one day and i doubt this there's a real space conquest over resources to keep it will be survival of the fittest before so we get to choose do we want stay serious and rationing. or do we want dynamism and growth we have to use the resources of space we must have a future for our grandchildren their grandchildren of dynamism we cannot let them fall prey to status and rationing what could this future look like were in a trillion humans live. this would be an incredible civilization high speed transport agricultural areas no rain no storms no earthquakes.
4:57 pm
some of them would be more recreational. there be whole new kinds of architecture. could you manage it's hard to believe we'll be able to colonize other places and i wonder if we need to work on why when we go to space we realize that space is empty and that everything is very very far away and that most places are hostile to human life the complex there's nothing like our own planets and nothing. will never wholesomely if we don't learn and i think this war if we refuse to learn anything more than with doomed to repeat the same mistake this limousine yes will have a little more imo make a few more mistakes will waste a bit more he should become more numerous. just sit there and that we don't have unlimited resources on this planet and don't
4:58 pm
want to have to learn to manage those that are up and crits. into the conflict zone with terms of master germany's human rights policy is on the spotlight these days also freshens a national criticism of its new strings to gas deal with moscow is a system itself and so is my guest this week from voters the christian democrats and an interesting mix this is going to is called the city of job sites in favor of
4:59 pm
business conflict zone. 1530 minute spondee dollars. i'm scared that if i were not hard and in the end it's a me you're not allowed to stay here and more we will send you back. are you familiar with this. with the smugglers would lie and so. what's your story ready. i mean when i was a women especially in victims of violence. take part and send us your story we are trying always to understand this new culture. another visitor another yes you want to become
5:00 pm
a citizen. in for migrants your platform for reliable information. if it did up in years life from but no data and may deadly violence in me and my eyes several more demonstrators art. killed one tells t w the military is using snipers to target protect you it's more like. a video game for them you are just dreaming a bit. on and on and on. also coming up. 2 of germany's federal states gear up for elections on sunday after a campaign dominated by the government's response to the pandemic but a coronavirus campaign restrictions. plus
5:01 pm
a powerful car bomb rocks western afghanistan amid a spike in violence is there any hope of a deal between the warring sides we'll get the latest from kabul. i knew it was begin and welcome to the show there is no let up in the demonstrations in me in my nor in the brutal response from government security forces after several protesters were shot dead by police overnight more people have been killed on saturday at rallies or than 70 people have died in the unrest that started when the army seize power last month. is the one to be full of me and mar are in mourning the one nearly all of those who though he joined as a volunteer cart every night asked him to take
5:02 pm
a rest as he was sick but i couldn't stop him. he said he needs to take care of people because the military were attacking them with heavy weapons then the shots and killed him he can't fight back anymore. who knew. the soldiers shot at us during our sit in last night and arrested 3 people they beat them. a group of us went to the police station to request their release then they fired live ryan's out us. with one died over there and another one died here or my door suma no doubt it. still an air of defiance prevails. even in the face of mounting funerals. the. people are determined to keep up the pressure thousands
5:03 pm
rallied in mandalay many of them teachers and university students oh. oh. oh. but moments later police disparaged the peaceful protest with tear gas and rubber bullets. amid the escalation of police brutality injuries like these are becoming commonplace healthcare workers and volunteers who raced to bring them out of the line of fire. thank you witness footage from friday in young gone shows police beating 3 men accused of breaking a nighttime curfew they were dragged from their homes and beaten with sticks on the street. 7 in the distance the signs of gunfire.
5:04 pm
attesting to another episode of violence in the city. earlier i spoke to david an activist whose full name we won't be using to protect his identity he was at one of the demonstrations in mandalay and i asked him to describe what he saw. thanks to the printer and. peacefully sitting and trying to you know or versus. security force were more like. on terror is raiding a city it's very it was very coordinated and systematic the way they came they didn't come to laws to disperse the crowd they came to us they came to kill and as soon as they got tool near our protest area they raided 6 jory building and 2 snipers get on the roof and they started shooting random people and right in front of my eyes i could count up to 20 people were shot directly but it's my 1st it was
5:05 pm
really heartbreaking moment and and moral but they use less and less teargas and more and more alive and unishe and it was something really really close to a battleground and the violate every single aspect of human rights david this is some incredible incredible brutality that you are describing to us tell me what it's like when you're in that situation i mean people must be terrified on the streets you know we we were. at 1st we didn't think it would be this severe so we were still staying in form and backing off quite slowly and then right at the edge of the our group as a civilian was shot in the head and we knew that there sniper and everybody started
5:06 pm
to move quite quickly and the police became really chaotic and. the military took advantage of the situation and they took their time and shot down you know everyone the police it and it was more like. a video game for them do it is aiming at the hits and shooting on and on and on and i had to run i had to look after the women right there right despite me and my knee and had to flee as far we have possible and still and it was there were also hundreds of students who were also trapped and we also had too many really hard to get out and still hundreds of students were captured and they were taken true. taken to a prison. david thank you so much for sharing your insights with us it must be an
5:07 pm
extraordinary tines and all this they are all showing incredible bravery say thank you so much for your time. here in germany 2 states are going to the polls on sunday and now it's a vote that's being watched very closely ahead of germany's national elections in september this will be the 1st chance the voters will have to make their voices heard about the government's handling of the corona virus pandemic the candidates are putting all their energy into this campaign but because of the pandemic things feel decidedly different. campaigning in times of a lock down. it's a strange state election where voters only get to see the politicians on posters online and sort of meeting them face to face it helps if you're already well known . at the headquarters of the social democrats and its current state premier. is getting ready for her daily live stream. that because of corona i can travel to all the constituency is to have our usual big campaign events where the candidates are
5:08 pm
the kinds of invited all the candidates to come here and i try it we try to convey our political messages jamo as effort and i want to and the common model is digital and it looks relaxed but it's actually a well practiced routine over the past few weeks claire has hosted 52 individual s.p.d. candidates from the various constituencies the live streams of broadcast why you tube facebook and instagram small tenuously what is missing is face to face interaction with the voters. of course the kind of that still need people but in a very limited way i do that from time to time and i meet individual people but try to keep my distance you carry a basket full of flyers which you try to hand out without touching the other person it's all a bit tedious but it's massive because you get actual feedback and lack of feedback is the big disadvantage of the online campaign. but digital campaigning also opens new tools get china general secretary of the opposition christian democratic union
5:09 pm
sees the digital campaign as an opportunity he and his. party had the more difficult job of making their relatively unknown top candidate more popular. you have. advertised an event in the past there was always a relatively high reluctance to attend you had to have a really good speaker for people to say i've never gone to see do you party event but i'll go to this one that meant that we often had about 100 people at these events and that was fine but we also knew all of them on social media it's different their reluctance to just watch a live stream as much. because of the market. most importantly though says china is the relatability of the candidate which is why in his instagram life talk with a startup founder china focuses more on his gift and only highlights his own political ambitions at the end of the live soft skills one might say. back in the
5:10 pm
social democrats living room chat up to 300 people have queued in the numbers far cry from those of a big name influencer but the politicians are satisfied after all these are regional elections and for many a purely digital campaign is new territory. ok let's take a look now at some developments in the pandemic astra zeneca has again cut its forecasts for the number of vaccines it will deliver to the european union in the 1st quarter of 2021 and now says it will deliver just $30000000.00 doses instead of the $18000000.00 originally agreed italy's government has approved plans to put half the country under a total lockdown because of a surge in cases schools shops and restaurants will close for monday and kenya's president has extended the country's overnight curfew for 60 days as the east african nation deals with a 3rd wave of infections. to afghanistan now where at least 8 people have been
5:11 pm
killed and dozens wounded by a powerful car bomb in the west of the country the late night blast targeted a police station in the city of herat around 50 people wounded including women and children and homes and shops were destroyed the government blamed the taliban but a spokesman for the group tonight responsibility the united nations has condemned what it calls an alarming increase in attacks targeting civilians. and for more on this let's bring in journalist allie latif who is in kabul ali thanks for joining us what more can you tell us about what happened in herat. so the explosion happened late in the evening last night and it was a car packed to the brim with explosives according to local residents they said that they were out in 2 in the morning trying to deal with the rubble trying to free people trying to take people to the hospital and if you look at the death toll
5:12 pm
the vast majority of those people that were killed were civilians and a great number of the injured were also civilians so this is another instance of how much insecurity in the country including in a city and a province like a dog is affecting civilians i visit here are 3 times in the last 5 months and every single time people have been talking about just how bad security has become not only in the parlor not only in the province but in the city people who are saying that districts that used to be safe only a year or 2 ago districts very close to the city of heroes the 3040 minutes outside of the main city are now no go zones for people so it's really showing just how much security is affecting the average person in the country right now ali very briefly peace talks have been going on for a year now between the government and the taliban any hope of a breakthrough at all. so they have just decided to remove to move the
5:13 pm
venue once again from doha where it's been since you know the taliban have been there since 2011 having informal discussions but in the last year you know these talks are supposed to have bed and nothing really happened the 2 groups are there that the government side is there the taleban side is there but other than sort of setting an agenda they never did anything they never actually disputed anything they never resolved anything so the idea is after divided mission sent a strongly worded letter last week to move the talks to turkey and to try and russia everything now and actually make something happen including a cease fire all right thanks so much for joining us. time now to take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world people in the u.k. are paying tribute to sara the 33 year old whose remains were found in woodland a week after she disappeared from a london street a serving police officer has appeared in court after being charged with
5:14 pm
a murder case that sparked an outpouring of anger about the safety of women. russian police have arrested about $150.00 opposition politicians and municipal deputies at a conference in moscow accusing them of links to an undesirable organization organizers said participants from all over russia were discussing plans for parliament tree and local elections in september several prominent opposition figures would you to take part. and sri lanka has announced plans to close more than $1000.00 islamic schools and ban the wearing of the burka a garment worn by some muslim women that covers the body and face the measures still need to be approved by cabinet. some sports news now and in the bundesliga. were looking to get their ambitions for european qualification back on track as they travel to oak spoke to open match day 25 but the hosts proved too strong for blood winning 321 under a hard sealed the victory with the best of the goals in the 89th minute now looks
5:15 pm
safe from relegation. without a bundesliga win since january. you're watching news live from berlin sports like it's coming up next next for you so stick around for that if you can thanks for watching. where i come from we have to fight for a free press and was born and raised in a military dictatorship with just one to be shut out and if your newspapers when official information as a journalist i have worked on the streets of many cantors and their problems are always the same courting the social inequality a lack of the freedom of the press and corruption we can afford to stay silent when

how come now sounds after a little missing girl. and this is how it sounds when a club is promoted to the boy in this league after 15 years away. i've watched him fill. a lot of games and if i've learned anything it's that football is not just about hockey see above all it's sound that fills football with blood. absent. i'll explain why the sound of fans singing whistling drumming and cheering are so important for the football experience can you simulate that at the push of
5:18 pm
a button. yeah. where. samples. during corner virus football mostly sounds like this. at least it does for many viewers in germany although for plenty of fans around the word that's just not enough something is missing from football it's like an opera without an orchestra or playground without kids the penn demick has shown us how empty football is without the noise from the crowd that's why a lesson tannoy and his team at sky sports germany offer an alternative if you are
5:19 pm
