rise mean to you. well i'm proud to have been lucky enough to take the picture that maybe define. the start of the environmental movement i mean the bigger a start. it really and has influence well beyond my imagination a lot of people not only is the earth fragile and and beautiful but it's very small and i think that last message is just beginning to creep in to people that we're not the center of the universe as people would like to think and i think that picture along with the hubble telescope deep space view you know where the even looking through a tiny little hole in the universe there's millions of go axes and so though we have still i think a lot of people think we're the center of the universe or it's clear that that's not true and i think the earth rise picture has helped people start thinking in a more expansive way but you guys all three of you you're pretty religious you had

religious convictions yet faith when you see for the first time how the earth does that somehow change your perception of god based religion. if people everybody's free to believe what they want and of course if you go back you know sooner or later you have to wonder in the creation of the universe who was it or what was it that divided by zero and we get all this but i must say it did affect my religious views they became much more much broader than my narrow catholic upbringing and john graham said that complement was for all humanity did you feel that at that time we felt the well particularly i felt it as a air force fighter pilot fighting the cold war. that we were there to prove not just to ourselves and the american people but to prove to the whole world that america was a second. when certainly the soviets are now the russians with sputnik and guard

care and the missile gap will make in america look really bad when you think of that gary want us to symbolize to me. i don't think the russians have gotten the full credit for sputnik. i mean i know he's a hero of the soviet union but you know course like me he just had to be at the right place at the right time but to be the first human to. get away from the earth we were the first to get really away from the earth that is the first to get up there i think. that makes him and that the russia and soviet union something they could really be proud of that gives that if it hadn't been for the russians wouldn't have had public support for the taxes that were required to beat those comments as an air force pilot how did the cold war motivate you well i was

chasing him and i say dirty commies i well i'd probably admit it but. i was tracing you know russian bombers soviet bombers around iceland and carrying nuclear rockets to shoot them down if they attacked our country and there would not be the political support for john f. kennedy's sort of crazy statement of what we're going to go to the moon had it not been for american paranoia over the russians over the soviets and that was particularly made clear even to the farmers in iowa who pay taxes by sputnik and that space budgets right now are being cut. defense budgets are still secure yet we know that you know to say it's in a financial trouble as a former defense industry top man which should be the top priority right now well. that's a long i have a somewhat different than most of my colleagues view i think there are. program has

been on the wrong track ever since the end of apollo with the space shuttle well i think the space shuttle is spectacular it is a dead end program and that certainly brought the point by it being terminated and now we have to hitch rides with the prior competitors who must be laughing up their sleeves that the americans who got to hoon first now have to ride on russian rockets. the space shuttle was supposed to cost still one tenth per pound orbit in the saturn five modified modified it cost ten times in retrospect that's a hundred fold so the space shuttle is spectacular as it is a nasa hollow from the inside out so it's too bad in my view that we went down this path right it did a lot of wonderful things but it streamlined high cause it's not the least of which is basically to. marginalize nasa now the other question which should be i mean i

think every nation needs to make sure that its defenses are strong enough to defend its country and maybe do a little more i think united states is trying to be the policeman around the world i frankly think that's a mistake. that's our peace loving president obama is doing that. do you find that the world is less fascinated now with the space exploration that it was the nineteenth it seemed to feel like the public interest shifted to a different sphere. first of all the apollo program was not an exploration program it was a political program to demonstrate to the soviets the rest the world that the united states was not second rate we barely were able to do that did you feel that it was a political mission when you're flying. that we're our job was put the american flag on the moon and if we had any time to pick up rocks well ok but do. don't

cause and you don't have any accidents. fortunately the rest of the world and american public are also fascinated by the exploratory aspects they're not willing to pay for that they're only willing to pay to beat the. russians are. they being evil well i mean that's the way america felt and i'm sure that the people of my age in the soviet union felt the same way it was mutual assured destruction you know you can't get too cooperative over that but how important is the aspect of exploration right now for you well it's important but we don't have the public to pay for their won't they won't pay the cost of going to mars ok they'll they'll pay to my amazement they'll pay to go into afghanistan and you think learned from the soviets that that was a big mistake. but they all seem to pay for that they will bomb a is finding out that maybe they won't but. exploration everybody can

rhapsodize over the whole bowl but they're not willing to pay the taxes for unfortunately if my words are ok if i were premier i'd say we're going to go back to the moon. i'm not i'm not a czar not premier when you think about the average age of a team on the ground twenty four and looking back at it do you feel safe to trust a bunch of twenty year olds now trust them more than the old guys. well that was in a period when we had some very good elderly leadership. but that leadership was smart enough to leave a lot of the technological and quick decisions up to the young people it was very they had a lot of screening and they were tested time and time again but there was a. the management listened to the younger people.

the olympics that's a lot for so going on running the world record is nearly two seconds away which is massive. and those long games and i was actually won the air away with world famous venues primed for the global spectacle wildly stadium the all england club and lord's among those hosting events two time olympic gold medalist lawrence of us in kill knows the job is not done yet comparing the current state of preparations in race terms it's midway back straight. on and go from a hundreds as well as one the last so i don't kid myself you know this is a this is a crucial part of the race. and you come out of that. five hundred to six hundred he's off to. you know often determines how you come across the line. and back to football finally where the russian prime a league race started last friday after a three week break and new boys combined krasnodar will be aiming to rediscover

their early form which saw them in the hong for european qualification r t caught up with their boss former chelsea grey down to tresco who shared his thoughts on big wages at the world cup twenty. i'm hearing crossland to me of former chelsea star and current head coach of local side combined with the i don't mean to his very busy man and said he would as many questions as i scored barrel to use so here goes. well like hulu than has occurred inside and is going to answer a few questions despite my mrs dunn you left chelsea three years before i'm on about mortgage but the club do you feel any regret that you weren't there when salaries went sky high and the blues for only one belief. yeah i think it was about

time for me to leave the club but i didn't know at the time that a bit of which is going to come and also. in this time i was not in the good relationship with the coach who was yelling and i had to leave but i was sorry for sure because after two years i left chelsea won the championship you spearheaded only area a team which played in the champions league so why did you decide to make a move to combine a team which has been just relegated the owner of the club and the governor out of the region. especially in a manner for me three times in my house to convince me to come here that i think that was fantastic reason and in the club i was working i was sure it is going in the wrong direction because they finish the money and in this moment this club disappear from for good and i think i did the right thing to move in the right time before they come to bonn they had five coaches in one year and i was going to be scared about the situation but they said they want to change something and leave

even though in the last three games in the road and i was under pressure a little bit last year i know that the owner of the club said. that risk want to be the new fed was sort of the bond and he'll trust me do you thing that the world cup twenty teams can change something in this i'm sure i'm kind of percent sure after the world cup that i shall be much better not just in the national team what also in the club competition and they will learn a lot from this and it's good for the country because there will be a new stadium of snow airports new no streets new hotels i think it's fantastic for russia that the world cup will be here and i wish after the world cup i'll be russia because that'll be the time to be here how do you think chelsea will do next season. i think everything will depends what the transfer will be because much is a matter of these really strong and they already been buying to replace. at the moment you'll see it's doing nothing and even if they change their coach only the

coach cannot change the needle so in my opinion some players do in the champions league and two in the fight. thank you very much it's been a pleasure. as fall for the album coming up shortly after this is the one of the we'll bring you the main news stay with our team. twenty years ago the largest country in. the sense of the. city but how did you come. to be janet jackson where did it take the. culture is that so much surprise on account of the cubans are nothing less there's the taliban bad guys the color of terrorism as norway comes to terms with its most horrific attack on its soil since the second world war
