welcome back here's a recap of our top stories on our u.s. warships are assembling near the libyan coast amid growing speculation a major winter invention in the oil rich country all of the same talking critics say that claims about colonel gadhafi the sussing chemical weapons have an all too familiar ring. and as protesters in arab countries look for western support we take a look at history which suggests that it only bad suboffice you can control and those that it counts it precious and that was the case with the mosque in gaza

which was denied international legitimacy for its opposition to certain interests. and also outrage after allegations that a u.s. psychological warfare unit used mind tricks on senators to secure more cash and troops raising fears over the military's reach into political life well next we look at space exploration and how it could help prevent earthquakes as our he talks to alan smith from the millard space science laboratory in london that interview is next. well this year we're celebrating fifty years since year ago guarin became the first man in space and you are presenting a new project a joint project between russia and the united kingdom could you tell us briefly about twenty project for those who don't know what this project would involve as it

has a name implies two spacecraft which would. the earth about four hundred kilometers apart and they will be. from information on board which was started we are in the sphere from above and what we're looking for is the signal signatures in the on the sphere which are precursors to earthquakes phenomena and volcanic eruption phenomena what would happen would be that after twins are there would be a mission which would be an earthquake prediction program and the data from that would be correlated on the ground and what you'd have is something like a website or something which gave the earthquake probabilities. around the world what we would produce is some sort of indicator which is like. a likelihood of an earthquake indicator and that would be derived from all the data would likely but it would be a short term so if that indicator went into the rate the in a particular area the local authority in the area would take action and they might

have up to ten days notice that there's a very high chance that there's going to be an earthquake in that area within the next ten days and they would do whatever they could to mediate the damage caused by the earthquake so you'd have less collateral damage less loss of life the main damage from an earthquake is not the actual earthquake itself it's usually the ayers and. that sort of thing that happened after the earthquake and you can prevent a lot of that if you know if you know things like to turn off the gas mains to turn off the electricity to reduce the likelihood of fire and just to prepare people for you know the likelihood. an earthquake so you will save a lot of lives that way and you will reduce the impact so we can't prevent earthquakes and we will lose a lot of infrastructure but perhaps we can save the cost is it just the earthquakes and tsunamis i mean is it the say snick of timothy does it affect anything else

there is anything there's major movements the volcanic eruptions are also in that and in fact they might even be easier to detect in norway. and of course there's a there's a whole different issue associated with volcanic eruptions as we've seen recently in iceland where. civil aircraft has been has been affected so once again what kind of. timeframes do you give it we would we would look for launching about twenty fifteen would be been we would expect a launch and the mission as a three year mission so by the end of. twenty eighteen we should be in a position to get to know where to go why have you chosen russia as a partner we had some russian scientists visiting us in the u.k. and they were talking about a single satellite mission that they had in mind and we had in the u.k. . some ideas for a small satellite which would follow

a larger satellite around the sky and bring the two together looked like a really good mission and we've built on that's absolutely true that russia has a huge heritage spray sector so that counts a lot because you're working with people who is within their it's their culture their way of life and so that's fine and that makes them a very credible partner to work with well this is not the first time you're working with the russians you've also worked on as the use spacecraft what can you tell us about your experiences back that well that was back that was back in the eighty's i worked on. instrumentation for seven in the mir space station and it is. it was interesting and different we didn't really know very much about the spacecraft it was very difficult to get information about this space craft provided to i think these days things are much more open and it's a much easier relationship at the level that we're working at the moment things are

very open but even then the relationship at the science level is very good it's very open very friendly very positive. and i really do enjoy working in that sort of situation so i'm looking forward to it you were talking about the eighty's but from your experience how much difference is there between the soviet space science and the russian space science there's more of an emphasis now on commercial space in russia than the was in the past new launch vehicle particularly of a very very impressive launch vehicle program i think there's been an emphasis in that and. there's been i think there was a time when russian space science diminished a bit but i think we're seeing russian space science committee back into play particularly in earth related areas that's observation which is what this is all about let's now talk about mars five hundred ground based experiment simulating

manned flight to mars how realistic would you say it is after all there is no weightlessness and it's just a warehouse with a scientific laboratory going to mars is a very complex and we can't simulate it in one go so what we have to do is separate out the various different difficult aspects of it and then try to isolate those aspects and then understand those aspects so the one of the real problems in going to market is getting people to get on with each other for that period of time and still be effective when they arrive six or eight months later when the service and the name come back again so it's not meant to be a perfect. simulation. it's meant to just tease out some of the real issues and some of the issues are things like the difficulty in communication and the growing time lag in communications and the sense of general

sense of isolation the fact that they have only a limited amount of supplies exactly so all those things have been well simulated. the it's never going to be possible to simulate gravity or the actual sort of weightlessness of the trip but i think hopefully this will go on to the next generation of simulation which will be. more fidelity which will mean that they will be using equipment on their mars sandpit which is more likely quitman that they would be using would you say we would be able to travel to mass if ever if we decided which is the go to mars tomorrow we could be there in ten years. and it's. a matter of political determination just like going to the moon or something like that why did the americans then stop their moon program in a way you see america. wanted to first ok my view was that man on the moon. first but was there done that tick that box carry the question then was what was

the purpose of future lunar missions and the lunar science was never the main reason for going to going over it because apollo wasn't really a scientific program they did some good science but there's an awful lot more that could have been done if there'd been a couple more missions they canceled the last missions on apollo and those were the science missions real ones so i think that what happened is the box was text and political imperative going to what how much in your view does their politics today affect pure science it's not so much these days about national pristine it's more about national economics these days we have to work together because it's just all too expensive to do it on your own and when we do work together we try to maximize the benefit to our individual nation and scientists of course are irritated by this put the politicians if you like have to bear that in mind so

politics is there it's economics more than politics and one thing that the scientists are doing all the time is trying to encourage public interest because without public interest we're not going to get funding and so we need to be relevant we need to show how or going to mars benefits that the nations that are going finally let's turn to the subject that is really of interest to many states tourism it may seem like a far away dream at the moment but are we going to get to the point where it's going to be open to the public but there's there's enough activity going on at the moment that means that there will be in only a few years time you would if you are well enough. if you were rich enough you could you could buy trip into space and see the black sky some. space hotels and things i think are probably farther away than going to mars but i think that the public will have the possibility whether we can. get some

a sub orbital flights which will get us from europe for australia now or something like that. maybe maybe it is really not that much as it's not so much technical feasibility all these things are absolutely technically feasible is whether or not you can get the investment to do it so how much do you think it would cost of the moment i mean virgin galactic will charge more ten thousand pounds for a human it's in space i think that number could come down to a thousand pounds if there's a large enough market because ultimately what you're looking at is a piece of technology that's not much more sophisticated than a major aircraft would you think would be the restrictions for those people who want to know why it wouldn't be a particularly comfortable ride you're going to suffer weightlessness and g. forces so that but i don't think they're that bad i think that. an ordinary person a healthy person even a person in their eighty's can travel in space it's not that it's not that bad.

one student period he would put up putting the businesses in front i would like to know and i said. neta twice the second tape spots i can regain so three always still going into the final. that's the proca playing this second of the night to give the win and their first ever ticket in seeing the last day. meanwhile former ice hockey great buddy threat check says russia is everyone's affair at the upcoming world championships in april and may include ing host nation serve archaea as the legendary soviet netminder spoke at a press conference at the embassy in moscow a month ago but. you know whichever side plays it always plays about themselves the fans are cheering on should think our cultures will accordingly make adjustments like pay an extra attention to defense and counterattacks and be ok period like you

to not be done crowd will force the slovaks to go all out especially against russia that's because russia really can do one in the world at the moment despite losing the last piece final average she will want to play a good match against russia but we are prepared for this play to win in every single game so i think a lot of good stuff for the fans. now that's made for the english premier league west brom have moved out of the relegation zone there after getting a late equaliser against last night boyd the latter had put such a key part as villa has brought some with ten minutes to go for the fact he's got an equaliser that moves them back to the bottom three you can see there will be proper table but this is hardly anything down there and at the top money united lead the way they play fifth place chelsea the savings are currently fifteen points off the pace of freezing conditions caused by ten weeks ago when chelsea's title push was all but frozen over since the play's deficit to united has increased from

three points today's fifteen but a dozen games left to play united in the premier league's top stories but chelsea. have lost to the red that will stand to break for almost nine years until you have the divisions best defensive record of the night the fate this season will be the nice guy defending champions. i want to mr winners man united. were and then i. don't say that we are all we have to believe but obviously yeah and objectively we have to you have to. to be honest and now it's very difficult for us to close the gap but other games and up i may have leaked that we want to arrive and the first thought of release of the table and this is i want to make i want to. pull for me isn't the only problem in july he has been facing his that mike ashley cole when he was in the headlines this week accidentally shooting

a work placement employee with an air rifle at their training ground but the man would you know yes there's a problem with this a plane at a club. from outside nobody can say that here is all done controlled by powers that we haven't thought about the should blame who we think it is usually going to want to speak i would side with that usually pay keo and so it's important it's not true that there is no disagreement but i think that the players on the beach are short and so you can't god you can't judge the player on the pitch but on the bridge of showing them for a player showing obvious but for that i thought i'm showing that it's by voting. for defiance this is what you have to judge not other things. well talking it is a pin mentioned unite is going rooney will not face action from the football association after appearing to elbow another player he clashed with wigan
