a crew of three head to that year national space station in russia stories rocket is the first launched since the similar rocket carrying an unmanned supply craft back to earth months ago. so we have minds here in our next discover rush hour with james brown as he builds as he delves into the local life and traditions obvious some are region. if you're traveling in the russian winter it's always good to head to somewhere well developed and the small region definitely fits the bill the capital is the seventh largest city in the country and can lay claim to being one of the most important business and cultural centers in european russia it's also one of the most picturesque boasting the largest central square in europe and along beautiful embankment alongside the volga river it's a ninety minute flight from moscow or if you prefer the scenic route you can take
4:32 am
a leisure li fifteen hour train ride. well that was a long journey and there's nothing like coming into minus twenty to wake you up but i mean some are one of the biggest cities in the whole russia. and i was also in one of its largest and most unusual buildings the glass front a train station was completed in two thousand and eight and it's one of the highest places in town so this isn't a bad viewpoint to take my first look at the city of rome there's supposed to be around one of million people down there and hopefully plenty of interesting places to explore as well. and my first stop was a real hidden gem. well it's not exactly a very picturesque place here but i did nathan all this rather tassie concretes advance one kobo one of some more as they can sequence. during the second world war
4:33 am
many soviet governmental institutions as well as most of the foreign embassies moved some are on this huge bunker was created in one thousand nine hundred two as a backup for stalin and his cabinet. is a really amazing feat of engineering this this entire bunker goes down almost forty meters and they built a space of more than. what seems even more incredible to me is that the people have some or apparently didn't even know that this place was. was only in the city when the soviet union was dissolved. and they finally found this huge structure had been under their feet for almost fifty years. through is all that it was built by conflicts who were then executed but nothing was ever confirmed. just kind of the first level here hopefully we're going to get some.
4:34 am
source code which is nice to me. and one man who knows all about the place is my guide anatoly even after all this time the power systems are still working. here you find life support systems and the equipment was installed when the bunker was still under construction it has not been replaced since then but it's still operational it works automatically it's russian made equipment the bunker was built to house up to six hundred people and they had some pretty effective defenses. right this is over it's. a reinforced steel it this is what the germans would go through. if they are over here and they carry their. rusty off. the bunker now doubles as a museum with various classrooms holding its old equipment geiger counters gas
4:35 am
masks and first aid kits are all on display at the most interesting area is right down in the depths. it's an eerie experience entering this huge conference room and imagining the plans that might have been made here. the central table is laid out for the generals and politicians the stenographers are off to the right and stalin himself would have sat under the huge map at the head of the room for the majority of the soviet union's existence some are a was renamed congress shift on the map clearly indicates that strategic position safely away from the german front lines it was never confirmed that uncle joe ever set foot here but the designers had obviously been told to meticulously prepare just in case nothing like a little megalomania to start the day but i was very happy to make my way back to the surface and take in some fresh air there's one real benefits of venturing out on days as cold as these it's going to be this sort of view the mighty volga river
4:36 am
in all its frozen glory where the river here is covered in ice for at least three months of the year and it was always a real pain to get across until some local businessmen opened up the rather unusual ferry service. but larry has been running the operation here since two thousand and seven literally thousands of people come to cross the river every month and they all jump into these air cushioned hovercrafts and it's made the journey a lot less precarious. before we started using the hovercraft people would try to cross the river by trying or car but sometimes the thin ice caused disastrous accidents so it is the only thing if the method. but now it only takes ten minutes and costs around one euro to make the journey safely and the bus itself is surprisingly easy to control.
4:37 am
adds. crofts to the lists. inside like across the ice they want to see me with any passengers but i was very happy to be going solo. what if any excuse they could get. but when you don't have customers to look off to it is easy to get carried away. i think the problem with this is so much fun if i was driving this all the time i just pretend to like. drive people to the other side of. this great. bus by now there were several chilly passengers waiting for a ride so it was time for me to make my exit. now that.
4:38 am
is what i call a ferry crossing. back on foot so i was ready to check out some of the attractions i'm one of them is quite literally out of this world. if you talking about the soviets all the russian space program and you're talking about samoa and the soyuz rockets seventy percent of the world space flight school use these rockets and then made right here in the city. one of the proudest parts of some mars history and include the launch vehicle to stalk the carried the first man into space and now some of the city's cosmic achievements are on display to the public. this is full of a lot of some more as space. i'm next to an old landing module and i
4:39 am
met up with museum director yelena for a guided tour of the premises reasons that some are it is the right place for such a museum. because our city has been the local point of this country space engineering for decades here you can see there are men further light that has been in outer space. program about it is a replica of warts the world renowned cosmonaut yuri gagarin used during his space missions. there are around six hundred different exhibits that date back to the beginning of space exploration including some of the most advanced technology of the cold war. makes me feel very small when you realize that you're not for something without sleep in out there among the stars and these spy satellites are part of the soviet and russian space programs for the best part of forty years and these lenses so powerful that. if i open this up to do
4:40 am
that even a volley of hundred kilometers above the eye to be able to read. the news here is definitely one of the city's cultural highlights but if you're also winter sports fun you won't be disappointed either ok so if your smee fun things to do in the russian winter i can tell you maybe sledging a bit of skiing i probably wouldn't say go. bust here in samoa they don't let a small thing like the conditions get in the way of the ground. and designers of the ski resorts have built their own icy night hole course. with me so the place. with you allude to speak english yeah. james then let me. ok well this is a first for me in the snow actually for me too so. what's the idea about
4:41 am
today what's going on while it's a golf tournament well you play golf almost the same rules as first time i have of course some local rule. over us rules are in accordance to using conditions of weather conditions right now ok so now you're trying to play it nine holes. but always been in the good walk spoiled camp when it came to goals but louder was obviously a down pound and she said she could give me a few pointers. what do we need to do so the first thing you have to set up a ball on the seed ok yeah. so make a position. so self so make us. so making. oh. you are the head. not exactly an all species starts the mother was the local for the non-contact sport. oh.
4:42 am
walking wounded want to get out of the way of the person playing bass to some soothing tea i was ready to tee off. as the ladies went on with i decided i'd play a solo round and as long as i wasn't attempting to blow its longest drive the ball could seem to head in the right direction. this. is a sure but still this. see you ball you feel that way here. he gave his only school for now for play with me judge. mind you my technique wasn't my first concern. with the temperature down around minus twenty celsius so minus four
4:43 am
fahrenheit i reckon i may have made one of the quickest ice cold frowns in history . course. comes in for the i still. can't he make. and the. championship goes to james brown who is now going to enjoy some very well deserved because. in the car pass it may have been freezing but some are was turning out to be a lot of fun and i was ready to take a look at another famous russian business the calls this region home. culture is that so much of this big huge business. is in the show all over again united nations nuclear watchdog the i.a.e.a.
4:44 am
claims in a new report that iran is moving ever closer. wealthy british style. find out what's really happening to the global economy. financial headlines to name two . if you wander around the streets of samarra there's one come over you'll see more than any other and that's no surprise because it's dominated the region's manufacturing industry the decades. if you think of the old russian car that you can't help but think of that they've been going up and down the country's roads for almost half a century and their story right.
4:45 am
this is the factory. seventy thousand employees work within it six hundred hexis to make what used to inhofe thousand calls every day. ok so when i think of this that's a classic this is pretty much what crops up in my head but. they're making something a little more modern. and i was ready to see how it was done. in the right place to. put a few nicely if. i would be about. ok so this is where everything begins. so this is madness the only hope they give me we are in the world and at least in the lobby a little more than an hour at least three of the must begin in the late sixty's and
4:46 am
we produce more than we need to. anyone so hard to put into them a list of silly we produce fourteen finalists of ours. from old pleasant months. on the basis of the are two more than cars all the time on the freeway. cleaner is one of the longest biggest sellers and machines work day and night keeping production line going. all the guys like you really are a lot given the german company to come up with it is there weld in a place in the mind of the cardboard what's only only two persons are needed here and there is the corporation is. totally automated. and once the frameworks assembled it's on to the next pass the operation. now remember when the job ended north of the body ok at the border with forces or with the sweetest qualities that
4:47 am
if you. found in the neighboring hangar things were moving on quickly. from the wind screams to the engines and the wheels all parts are attached separately and it's remarkably forced operation. and what do you get for your seven thousand euro price tag something like this. so of the sixteen hundred pieces of metal but only four hours on the production line not brand new a lot of. money for the roads. to clean or maybe a very popular color around here bounce in the winter time if can't get you everywhere sometimes you just have to try out a more traditional means of transport and i recently strapped on a pair of skis around about the first time in twenty five years no that was quite quiet easy reintroduction but here in samarra i decided i'm going to ramp things up
4:48 am
a little bit. so i'm guessing it but even some are. like to do things a little bit extreme yes you got extreme right now what exactly we're going to be doing today we're going to your you. this is and. that's no more while they're all. ok the future will be good for me in sixty kilometers per hour. maybe one hundred right that sounds terrifying. good ok let's go. in here and his friends a funds of yours which apparently is scheme behind animal school in this case a high powered snowmobile. romo makes you look belly up in this doesn't it. yeah write it out to me of a fee in august. because i had my medical insurance up today.
4:49 am
but once one way or another i was going to have to give it a go so i was probably kicked you know i was starting to wish i'm just going to take him home across again. being you know as. he was i really. fear it is all a very good life so please please. god good people back. and mrs lee there were a couple of false starts but eventually i managed to stay all right. ok. you like thirty wasn't out but. still. i'm still my. what you managed to control your balance this is an amazing experience and soon i was ready to join the going for
4:50 am
a group effort. and we're ready to rock. just a nice little all to the teeth that will have to be deployed. but if you are strong just for the first time it's best not to get overconfident. oh. well. well that's a fairly intense reintroduction to me but i think. everything students that. should excuse me a minute i think i just got
4:51 am
a little rest buzz unfortunately my recovery was to be short lived. well i'm still thinking from my session out there on the ice but apparently my new friend has another thing that he wants me to try something about sending me into a tunnel. it sounded rather ominous but once again goes a promise i was going to enjoy myself. that i may say so you get so what are we going to. cause we'll. look. ok so simple no see cigarettes screw it gives you instant flying power when i have it useful i go get it. and tool. and i deliberately feel it's ok. turns out that
4:52 am
a tunnel rocked is an acrobatic expert in vertical wind tunnels and i was about to get my first lesson in political. currents and it was like. that is like. these beautiful imagery. you know you are good and happy people. smile don't. have a good time here. partly the secret here is subtle changes to your body surface area doing right and you should rise and fall safely and if you train enough eventually you can do stuff like this the wind speed is apparently more than two hundred kilometers an hour and it's powered by five hundred horsepower engine enough to even get someone like me off the ground . i won't offer a word. ok we're into the tunnel. but
4:53 am
protests around. maybe not this year. and then it was time to take to the air i was a little worried the market crashed to the floors any points but remain had a good grip on me. the theory. was a little bit more money three zero zero zero zero zero zero bit. of. an outright made it through time to run it was time to go solar. them despite bouncing off the walls a few times and made to town in one piece. spirits
4:54 am
ok there are about thirteen techniques and could do their paranoia but i think i got a call that one a bellyful i didn't it seem uncertain works after all. it had been a lot of fun but some are a was beginning to tie me out so i thought i'd end my trip with a little self indulgence a muslim it's a festival has definitely got to be one of my favorite times in russia because basically it's a weeklong extended version of pancake day but it also is supposed to signify the end of winter and i for the us some are if additional naked how it's own quite hopeful. for not just claims to have people with a. first residents of this area often they battled with bashkirian moments back in
4:55 am
the eighteenth century. and it seems they still like to expend some serious energy to get themselves in the mood for a feast. that they're still very worked up they have also what it is. they will find. all sorts of their own was upset because they were hungry but a bit of a bookie seemed to solve the problems. i really had off here. i have no idea what is going on none of you. know people. and then the guest of honor arrives this old lady represents muscle units and she's here for a special reason. and then things started to get weird i. think
4:56 am
this is the usual funded salad with a massively successful. how. it's going to have some sort of significant. recipe the result i was on offer this. apparently mustn't series hate speech all the bad spirits out of you before the year starts anew. and then you can have a go full with both i guess the staples that i thank you for you but first how about if. i found once everyone has been cleansed is yes mortal sin to celebrate but finally i managed to sneak off the subject sorry winsor is right with my i am not kids and finally home. so i was eight.
