which is now being treated as an act of terrorism by the kremlin. with this figure in ahead of the minor in hand that they put a summer back there without a 2nd thought. and he carried on with his questions. then suddenly everything exploded and there was smoke. it was like a slow motion movie for the sit in the back half of the whole. everyone started to run and we needed to run. so the ran, those for the near had blood all over them of close. but you can use with i don't to task you, whose real name is maxim. firmin was a prominent back of, of russia's invasion of ukraine. filming himself last year at the grand kremlin palace celebrating russia's annexation of ukraine's occupied regions. gospels of summer we will beat every one we will kill every one. he says, in this defiant tirade that went viral, helping to build his popularity among pro war russian nationalists. he may be behind his death or that the attack is now the subject of much speculation in

russia. these c c t, v. pictures being widely shared on russian online channels, appearing to show some one carrying a package into the cafe before the blast. and according to russia's interior ministry, and 26 year old local woman arrested over the incidents has now confessed, claiming in a video to have planted the bomb. but without providing a motive, the kremlin says it was orchestrated by ukraine with the help of a russian opposition group. but without providing any evidence, he lives at it. but that value is not shared by everyone, including the head at the russian wagner mercenary group. you have jenny per goshen, who owns the cafe, where the blast took place over the stairwell. brita was here paying tribute to tusky in a video filmed in the besieged ukrainian city of back modes. lay to suggesting that

domestic radical groups are responsible for the blog as death, and not the key government, let them why. and as investigators try to establish a motive for the attack, that's a claim that is unlikely to go down well within the kremlin, which is doing all it can to paint a picture of domestic harmony over its special operation. in ukraine, i is look at some more of the stories making news around the world. you give me a per, goes in claims. his troops have captured the main administrative building in the besieged, ukrainian city. was the claim. see soldiers of raise the russian flag over city hall. keith however, says its forces are still holding me. like germany's vice chancellor rober hardback has joined the volume. is that on ski, on a visit to a military hospital, they spoke with wounded soldiers as the ukrainian president presented metals, a visit, a village where alleged russian war crimes took place. as mister hop x at 1st trip

nasa has named a 4 strong crew for it's asked me to move flies for the 1st woman on the 1st african american to take part in a luna mission, the cruise due to fly around the moon as early as next year asked me to be the 1st crew to luna voyage since the end of the apollo era. more than 50 years ago, he's carrying is an astral biologist and a former nasa employee. he's now a journalist and editor covering nasa and space policy. i asked him to tell me more about this diverse crew. sure. you mentioned to the 1st with the other 1st is jeremy hanson, the canadian. so you've got, you know, there's a lot of maybe political twisting on this, but you've got an unusual crew given that the last time we sent people to the moon was 3 white american pilots. ali. okay, and what are they going to be and what are they going to be doing up there? well, this is sort of a, a, a precursor flight to the landing. this is the artemus to mission. the arm is 3

mission will actually land. this mission is the 1st time that we'll send a crew back around the moon at a lean, 50 years, but also in this spacecraft. so the idea is to test anyway, pretty much everything except the actual weight. and there's a precedent for this, we did this back during the apollo program, but now we build spacecraft a little more efficiently so we don't have to do as many flights before we actually went right. and so there was so when they actually do land, do we know? do we know it's going to happen then? so we have optimist too. that goes random, then presuming everything to be all right, the next mission i actually get out and go back to the moon. is i right? yeah. and they'll be using a large vehicle that space ex is building a starship and they will. they'll meet in lunar orbit or get out of one capsule into that than the weight of the moon. and we don't know what when exactly that'll happen. it will probably be 20. 25 could slip a little bit and we don't know what the call is going to be for that yet,

except if you listen to the, the, the bumper sticker here, it's the 1st woman and the next man. you're a person of color to wait on the moon, so the trailblazer, stay to ok and technology overseas made huge leaps in some way. we were. it's humans last set foot on the move back in 68. how is that likely to change what these astronauts can do up there? well, sometimes you know, the stuff that he did before still works a lot of the tools of the use back dental's to work. it's your geology tools. but a lot of the scientific instrumentation that we take now, we have computers that are vastly more capable than what we use during the apollo era. but pretty much we're going to be picking up where we left off half a century ago. cuz a lot of people believe that we have on finished business on the move. and that's what these people be putting your minds to work. yeah. why is that an unfinished business or why we going back or if it's more symbolic than, than, than really necessary because i wonder why wouldn't you just drop a, i don't know a box of computerized tricks to do this. robin's actually put people at that's an

excellent question. i'm 67. ok. i grew up during the apollo era and people would ask that question back that. that was a political aspect to it, but there's also technological aspect. but this time we're not going just back to the room for flags and footprints as they say, we're going to go back and just to stay, we're not going just as white american pilot mail pilots, we're going back internationally. you will see japanese european astronauts and these are artemus missions, and we're going to go back to build a base there so that we can just not visit for a couple of days with the stand, you know up and really just understand what is like to live in the world, because at some point we want to go to mars. it is a lot of things we can learn about living for long periods of time. the lunar search data we will speak again about this good talking to kate, kate, cali. at is of space ref and that nasa watch. thank you so much. my pleasure. is reminded by top story at this hour. the b w. investigation with mentioned news
