politics swiftly and almost unanimously the country's constitutional court decided to revert the country's political system back to the constitution of nine hundred ninety six the court a bullish commandments for the country's main court of laws made in december two thousand and four during the election battle between. the events which led to the famous orange revolution back then the changes entailed that the country would transfer from presidential to paul eventually republic and those changes were meant to structure the country's political system but it's the nature of these amendments were done which was questioned by both the ruling party of regents and the constitutional court it was not that that you. amendments to the constitution approved in the eighth of december two thousand and four to be unconstitutional it was. going to lead to. use of force to immediately the decision by the constitutional court comes after several months of

deliberation on whether the change was actually needed it was proposed by the ruling coalition in parliament but the initiative itself shorty came from president on the call which ever since he took office in fabry twenty ten has been trying to change the political landscape of ukraine and centralized power this decision is seen as the final step and from now on the present which. is very important returned to him. the president used to have much less power in deciding who is going to be the country's prime minister as he was very much dependent on parliament after this decision you can more easily dismiss prime minister desirable if he chooses to do so the two thousand and four political reform transferred several very important powers from presidents to parliament or coding to authors of the reform this was meant to make ukraine stronger and more politically structure right. eventually according to those who initiated the changes this time this did

not happen on several occasions political crisis led to dissolution of parliament and reelections former country's leader president. tried to abolish these changes on several occasions but he failed to do that now after he found himself in opposition key change his mind completely and criticizes the power saying that the constitutional court's decision may cause a constitutional chaos in ukraine the opposition in general is very critical of this move by the constitutional court. the country's president the country's parliament elected according to the constitution of two thousand and fourteen that means that we are going to demand an immediate resignation of president and the prime minister and the dissolution of parliament and to hold early elections there is a saying in this part of the world that everything new is in fact a well forgotten old this is genuinely a joke but it seriously applies to ukrainian constitution the court's decision is final undisputable and takes effect immediately the only question is how soon will

the government and state bodies be able to convert to the old constitution of one thousand nine hundred ninety six. reporting from ukraine's capital kiev. next tonight spending a holiday on remote islands probably far away as we can get of the moment but maybe not for much longer that's because a russian firm is promising to transform space into the ultimate tourist get away the working of the world's first orbiting tell. they say it's the real deal that's according to the c e o of the russian private company orbital technologies and he points to several multimillion dollars contracts signed between his company and though the russian state own space manufacturer called energya in a year makes the soyuz capsules a ship space crews and their supplies to the international space station and bath and reportedly there are russian and american investors willing to put millions of

dollars behind this project here's more from the c.e.o. so. we've been working on this project for a while now much of the equipment and modules we'll use have already been created so we're not exactly reinventing the wheel because the hotel should be cozy enough for seven people and we'll have to large windows so that everyone can look at it or some the stars space tourists and also there are times. it's a great view from up there the colors are incredible and our station will be much more comfortable than the i assume which is basically an industrial facility in space so our space hotel will be designed for people who are now to launch a play based on the marshall space station slash told to help is twenty six thousand and it's meant to accommodate seven people six being a space travelers and one being a crew member leisure is definitely part of it they want to give a phenomenal experience to those who are willing to and can afford and will afford to pay such a high price for an out of this world experience but this high private public

partnership is also looking at long djibouti longevity and they're doing this and in a couple of ways first of all for the right now they want to be a supplement to their national space station so for example if there were no merge and the new members could go to the commercial space station as to heading down to earth and they also want to be able to provide services for scientists conducting experiments for private companies and then further down the road once base exploration has has gone to. they want to take people outside of orbit and perhaps may be able to take them to the moon and to planets that we haven't been to yet now they said that the cost is approximately what you would pay to get. on a rocket to the international space station so millions of dollars they know there is no discount for this adventure and they say that look it's going to cost a lot of money get things going even though we aren't reinventing the real wheel so

to speak so it's going to take a lot of money to get things built to get this hotel launched and then to operate it so it's not going to be cheap but they're hoping to recoup a lot of that cost by having hundreds of visitors go into space every year stacy bivins reporting on the shape of maybe holidays in the future up in space if you well heeled enough well meantime the u.s. is also joined the race to commercialize space congress has voted for billions of dollars to be pumped into nasa projects the agency is already working on replacing the space shuttle fleet which should be grounded next year and congress also wants private firms to keep up the pressure in orbit space entrepreneur jeff mumba spoke to see if his competition in space is a good step for mankind but house voted two to follow the senate and the white house got about seventy percent of what it wanted it means that it's now american policy that lower earth orbit will be commercial you'll have private companies ferrying people in cargo to space it means that nasa should work on

a permanent presence of humans beyond low earth orbit evidence will be going to an asteroid i find that incredibly exciting we have long argued finally breaking down the centralized government space program so it's going to be competition it's going to be hotels going to be games in space and it's just going to be a call time with who designed for people to relax play and think sort of have a big plate glass windows they'll have you know things to where you can move around they'll have media centers so you can record things though they'll be spiritually interesting. for sarah space entrepreneurs here's jeff let's talk about si dot com tonight see what stories you're clicking on right now. moscow's man is being shown with all by the president seeing use of course there was no turning on who could take on one of russia's most powerful positions you can have your say on bond as well take a look. at the back story that's also why music is the food of love for the news these cattle and russian farmer claims that caring for his cows like that with song
