time turn over to ukraine now. and in harkey, ukrainian investigators are gathering the remains of russian weapons. they suspect we're used against civilians. they help their work and bring support bringing war crimes, cases to court. it's a different kind of graveyard. a thick layer of snow covers these pieces of metal laid out next to each other. many responsible for lives lost in the conflict. a sombre illustration of the intensity of moscow's attack on the city of hard caves since the beginning of the war. ukrainian investigators are collecting every fragment as evidence. they suspect russian troops used cluster bombs against civilians and are building a case to take to the top war crimes prosecutor is a story i hope our findings will be used at the international criminal court was january. neither. rush and forces 1st started pummeling hardship with artillery and

president. violence broke out in the capital on sunday as thousands of angry demonstrators took to the streets some clashing with police, u. s. and scottish authorities say the libyan man accused of making the bomb that blew of pan am flight one o 3 over lockerbie scotland in 1988 has been taken into custody oblong. leah bahama masoud was charged by the us for the bombing 2 years ago. or 259 people aboard. that flight from london to new york were killed serbian president alexander, of which it says he wants to diffuse tensions between because of our authorities and ethnic serbs in kosovo. meant the members of the national security council in belgrade. on saturday sir protest was blocked. major roads in major in northern kosovo after a former sir police officer as a ref. nasa's artemus, one ryan castles black down in the pacific ocean off the coast of mexico returned
5:08 am
from a 25 day test flight around the moon. the vehicle hit earth's atmosphere at a mine bending 40000 kilometers per hour. though this one was on crude. nasa is aiming for missions with astronauts as soon as 2025, so thick america's new ticket to ride to the moon and back pair shooting into the pacific. ryan nasa's capsule, a ryan makes it splashed down or of nasa journey to the moon comes to a close. oh ryan, back on earth. 3 weeks ago or ryan was blasted off to the moon carrying mannequins susan, as part of a test run called our to miss one. we, the data that's retrieved from a ryan will help unlock the new era of space exploration by and i don't think any one of this could have imagined the mission, the successful. but we had a very successful flight test. we now have
5:09 am
a foundational deep space transportation system. and while we haven't looked at all the data that we've acquired, we will do that over the coming days and weeks to a u. s. military helicopters and a group of boats approach to capsule after it splashed down after has been inspected. it will be transported to san diego, california mission and nasa is planning to follow up with our to miss to in 2024. 30, a historic mission that will take humans back to the moon for the 1st time in half a century. ultimately, nasa says it's plan is to establish a permanent base on the moon. and from there, the launch mission to mars the plan is to get ready to go with humans to mars late in the decade of the 20 thirty's. and then even further beyond. and we know from what we're finding from the james web space telescope, that it is a very,
5:10 am
very large universe out there. 50 years after the iconic apollo 70 mission, nasa is one step closer to setting up camp on on the moon mason van. earlier i spoke to after biologist, keith calling and asked him how he saw the return of the capsule. well, you know, having worked there, there's 2 times during the mission that you get nervous, shall we say one is the watch. the other is, if you're bringing something back when it comes back into the atmosphere, and so there were some nail biting as they did, they did exactly as they plan to do it. they came closer to the target than the you to. so all round it was the perfect day. not bad math fair speaking of math, we have been here before the unit, the u. s. has sent astronauts to the moon before long before computers and the kind of technology we deal with today. what is so challenging,
5:11 am
given all this technology, all the advancements we've made in the, in the decade sense what so challenging about going back to the moon? well, you know, i remember those landings when i was in high school. so there's half a century between that me in this me. and if you look at what has happened in terms of what we can do in this world. now you may have things that look similar. it's like, you know, the old volkswagens had that shape and then i would say, this capsule looks like the old ones, but it can do many things that you could not do with the apollo councils. it's less the most important thing. the 2nd thing is to the way we're going back to the moon this time, we're not racing. the soviet union. we're going back and planned fashion that will go back again and again and again. not just america yet. i keep getting asked not nasa mission. yeah, had nurses load, want to put in a european service module, has all kinds of experiments from all the world on it. and when we do go back to the moon, there's going to be americans and europeans, japanese, and canadians. what not all walking in the mood so that the challenges and the
5:12 am
differences are not just engineering, but also societal how and why we're doing this here. let's get into how and why are we doing this here on earth. we have a climate crisis. we have warren ukraine. we've got inflation, we've got economic issues. there's so much that governments, not just the u. s. government governments around the world have to be doing to take care of their populations. why does this matter for ordinary people beyond just the inspiration aspect? well, again, i can just go back in time to the sixties and they said, you know, the different version of the same thing. you know, why are we doing this when, till in the black and i, i would just fast forward a bit. and i mean, we're all excited here in the us that this is happening in canada and europe and so forth. but i would still the question back you wire was india spending billions of dollars to put a person in space wise try to doings why are with the new artemus accords which brings had several dozen nations in why do you see cell a little countries are gonna and depaul flying satellite took a space station. it's because of the technological advantage it does give you,
5:13 am
it is inspirational. that is important. but also it's now something where space is now something that virtually any country in almost any high school and he were the world can do. so this is a natural thing that now we can say, well, what are we going to do? let's go back to the moon. we didn't finish what we need to do there. let's go back . all right, let's go back. indeed, astro biologist, keith cowan going where he's gone before, which is the w. it's going to see again, my vision. a teenager in the united kingdom has been cleared of cancer after undergoing a new treatment for luke leukemia. it's called base editing, which involves altering the patient's dna doctor say the breakthrough could have huge implications for the future of treating disease. oh, now again, the teenager at the center of a medical breakthrough. after all conventional treatments failed doctors feared alyssa's leukemia was incurable. with few options left,
5:14 am
alyssa volunteered to be the 1st patient to undergo an experimental treatment known as based editing. the cutting edge procedure involves genetically engineering new immune cells that hunt down the cancerous 16 months on the cancer is no longer detectable in alyssa's body. i just want it is an extremely exciting. so obviously this the new field in medicine. and it's fascinating that we can re directing in system to fight cancer. doctors say this treatment only scratches the surface of what base editing could achieve. they believe the technology could help fight a wide range of diseases. and i, i've helped the children as well that they might, that the children might be able to get cured because of 3 such died in pot and all these be loser is still being monitored just in case the cancer returns. but she and her family are grateful for the extra time that it is both them. it's
5:15 am
