a terrifying audio. a support cable for the gondola snapped leaving 6 children and 2 adults dangling more than $300.00 masons. above a ravine, a military helicopter rushed to the risk, you plucking one child to safety. but as the sun sees, the helicopter emission became more risky, forcing risk it was to use the remaining tables to zip line 5 more people back down . eventually it was locals who tooks the last to into being saved. but there's no way to do it. but most of the military became helpless because the people inside the gondola refused to be harnessed. the level of to put any binding . they tried very hard to convince them for almost an hour comfortable. they had stopped the helicopter or throwing ropes down to the stranded people's. that's yeah, but they refused to comply that got off the bottom of the local heroes and now
12:20 pm
being celebrated as those on board reflects on the old deals some of those ones that we will going to school around 7 in the morning when the dungeon little was off why the cable broke, cuz i knew it was dangling and i was terrified to jasmine that the boy. i loved it . me. it came and it was like a doom stay for the area. and at the i my everyone rushed out of their homes that have been and children yamaha those sisters that the couch which i'm use, the same cable car in the mornings and afternoons that i owe at the table cause a violin connecting villages and northern and mountainous areas of pakistan, but they are often poorly maintained or thought receives, have now ordered safety inspections of old mountain lists. now india is hoping to win the latest space race this week by becoming the 1st to land on the moon's south pole. the country is chandra on 3, which means moon crossed in sanskrit is due to land late as
12:21 pm
a day. now this is happening just days off. so russia's leaving a 25 landor craft while attempting to get to the main 1st 3010 stitch. andre and 3 spacecraft successfully launched in mid july to great fun fast across india and the wind to weld the last week. the indian space was such organization confirmed that land had separated from its propulsion section, which it carried it close to the moon. now its hopes that land code, vic, chrome, will make you controlled touch down near the moon, south pole. but that's no easy feat. gillian, 4 years ago was similar indian mission ended in a crash landing, which is cutting deadly the would not give off on it space um visions and quickly
12:22 pm
launch. it's the lunar attempt until a few days ago, it was in a race against the russian spacecraft to reach the moon south pole. but moscow is new. 25 pro. it's 1st moon mission in almost 50 is crashed at the weekend. the south pole is full of craters and deep trenches and it's hard to land on but it has a priceless commodity and that was the ice. and that could support a future new nicole in a mining operations and possible missions to mars. no one did then that the us, china and japan. oh, so watching an honest on moon missions for now the old eyes are on india as the world wait to see if the chandry and 3 spacecraft can make
12:23 pm
a successful soft landing port. okay. got of joining me some more on this as well science for both assertion mesa or i'm a christian, i'm switch me to thanks so much for joining me here in the studio. we keep hearing the would historic related to this mission. can you tell us why this is such a big deal? for almost the last half century, we've not had alondo that's made as to the moon of it's many emissions have been stymied, and 4 or 5 more landers in the past have discussed. so this is after of a long break, we're hoping for a, the lender to make it to the moon. okay, now of course a landing like this is no easy feat. is it? i mean we just saw a russian luna probes crossing just last week. and what are the main concerns today? i mean, what might go wrong? so if you take not 25 example,
12:24 pm
the engine drawn for much longer than it should have. and that's why it cost. and this is something similar happened with tundra on to the british to solve the current satellite that went out. it's crashed, moments before it was supposed to make of a soft halligan's landing. and so the problem was with software, once the landing is initiated, it's completely at the most, you cannot maneuver it's from good, everything happens on its own. so we should just hope that every single the technical details will code smoothly. so there's nothing that can be done now, i mean, once it's on its way and it's close to landing, does nothing but could be controlled from down here to make sure that it sort of goes a bit to the left or a bit to the right. precisely, so the 19 minutes from uh, 5 45 pm, i estie of its kind of worked on numbers until it reaches the surface of the moon. it can go up to 2 meters per 2nd. this would technically be like to, into 60, into 60 kilometers, but if we have to look at that in terms of our driving speed up,
12:25 pm
even though there's so much of an we could space, it's simplicity. okay. all right, now if everything does go right fingers crossed, india will be the 1st country to successfully land on the, the south pole of the moving. so can we talk about that? why is the focus on this part of the moon? in particular, all the lunar landings that have happened in the prospect china, us and soviet have all happened. you know, the increase over the environment is more conducive for lunar landing. with us the southern for less we saw in the report that a lot of creators with us and we don't know the students. so when they impact college as a dock side of the moon, because we don't know so much about it. and a tundra on 3 used to become nanda will be landing on the 1st day of the idea, so it would have 14 days to survive and then collect the data and then it goes into the dock. so it's this precise window in which this light in the south pole,
12:26 pm
and it's going to gather all of this information in that short period of time. maybe there's a 2nd chance after the 14 days of darkness when it's solar powered, so you need the sun for it to work in the south for this. okay, and tell us a little bit about the information they're trying to collect. so mean what, what are they going to get from that specific area to begin with? what the, what that tells us if there is life life on moon, or if we can set up a station in the future, then we're looking for minute is an element which again we can use as resources on earth. and it also tells us about how long it, for me, unlike the of the bone does not have enough, must feel. so what's that on the surface of the moon does. it's a historical data that's been untouched by human activity that he spent, and so far. and then the 3rd most important element is to check from one quick to know what's on the surface of the moon. and this would also tell us about how we can land in the future, how we can approach moon or other planets in the future. and just in
12:27 pm
a couple of woods, what's the atmosphere like in india at the moment? how people feeling about this? i don't think i'd be exaggerating if said there is a kind of loss hysteria associated with it's a symbol of pride. in fact, there are thousands of scientists to worked on it, but people a pretty cool. so it, there is a lot of it crazy and then the one thing when people search me is around refreshment . thank you so much. thank you. so for me, thanks so much for watching the
