many years about manned missions the do not just go out say just advisedly from to the international space station so that we've done quite a few times but it still can go wrong so this is a real stark reminder that space exploration is still very dangerous and what are the implications for the people who are currently on the international space station the i assess well there are some implications the american astronaut nick cave was jude to join germany's astronaut alexander gas is now the commander of the i assess. on the on oct nineteenth for a space walk an extra vehicular activity in actual fact to replace some batteries from some old technology only i assess to some new technology to power the solar panels of the international space station that has been postponed once before and it's quite possible the batteries can still hold on for a little while but the this does put a spanner in those works and it's a. bit unsure whether other astronauts on board the i assess could replace nick cage in that space walk. if they get a body from the science desk and a space expert thank you very much for

american astronauts and a russian cosmonauts were going up there to replace crew on the international space station that's mission of course now a failure which will have knock on effect for the russian space program and of course for the international space station itself what does this tell us about the soyuz program itself were in wasn't there a time not so very long ago that the families rockets now had a sizable hole in it. think what had the hole in it was actually something on board the international space station that of my memory serves me correctly they. use basically has been the work force for nasa and the russian space agency ross cosmos for getting astronauts up into the orbits of the international space station is the only way that they can deliver people up to the international space station the moment since the demise of the american space shuttle program some years ago so use is pretty safe i mean it's you know has got a good safety record there haven't been any sort of fatalities for many many years. it's. the russian space program itself does have issues and it's. the way you lo

have an international consortium of companies that would be interested in operating the international space station. and of course, attempting to make the business case closed, so that would be an opportunity. there are some companies out there. it would be international because it is the international space station so it would have to be an international consortium of companies. there are other ways to commercialize low earth orbit which is to have standalone stations privately funded launched and put into orbit and then nasa is one customer of many customers of those new habitation capabilities. we are looking at those studies and based on those studies we will make assessments for the future. >> the other aspect of commercialization is a commercial crew program. the astronauts flying on the initial test flights. how company-- how confident are you that test flights can be done by the middle of next year? >> i'm very competent that we can stick to those schedules. i want to be clear that those are commercial crew partners working to make sure that we have all of the safety mechanisms in place. wh

jeff well it turned out to be the moment that the soyuz rocket failed on its way to the international space station now this kind of malfunction has never happened in the history of the i assess and it cannot be brushed aside because for now the only way to get to the space station is with a soyuz rocket. safe and well with the medical equipment the only sign of their ordeal a few hours early yet the two astronauts have been all smiles ready to spend six months aboard the international space station three two one engines of initially things look to be going to plan. and there is liftoff of the still use in mess tin the rocket successfully blasting off from its launch pad in kazakhstan but less than three minutes into the journey it became very obvious there was a problem. over for the second night in the florida minutes going to five seventy eight. the failure of. the astronauts capsule making what nasa called a steep ballistic descent another vietnam comfortable ride back down to earth and some worrying moments at mission control until we are told now that the rescue forces are in communication wi

one such story is the negotiations with the international space station. one of the original sticking points was whether or not the space station would be used for peaceful purposes and this became a stumbling block for quite a while and it was eventually resolved and it would result in a fashion that allowed all of the other international partners including canada to join and here we have an example of how the united states is capable if they have an objective in mind which was international cooperation, they were able to find a way with this and not of peaceful use of the international space station so that the other countries could join and so it's that leadership on the part of the united states and it's not only money and it is an approach and it's technology and it's a common history and it is a common set of values. >> excellent. perfectly summarized with where we wanted to do with this panel. this from mr. brighten stein and mr. la port and it's a governmental presentation and we're going to move on to hearing from our first panel which is communica

positions we both have experienced these three nations allow us to shape the future of international space station's and continuous international collaboration as a centerpiece for success. governments are not the only major players anymore. 80% of global space revenues are generated by the private sector. the cost of launches falling at an increasing ability to use off the shelf technologies is rapidly changing space business models in shaping private sector enterprises. commercial space is pushing the limit, making space more accessible for emerging opportunities, new applications, innovations and entrepreneurship. in canada, the space manufacturing industry is eight times more r&d intensive than the average manufacturing sector. that is quite an achievement. following the large investments of the telecommunication industry we are now seeing rapid growth in new investments and legal. industry is reshaping the way space is the next board and utilized. and part canada's vision for space is founded on this. the private sector taking the lead, boldly innovating where no one has innovated before. space

they were headed for the international space station you saw use rocket for now is the only way to get there so what about the astronauts who are on board the international space station. well this certainly isn't reason to panic i question for survival for them as there is enough food water and oxygen on the ice as at least for the next healthy also astronauts on the ice as can return to earth in the space shuttle docked on the ais as about the astronauts on the us s. now will definitely be short handed they wore a supposed to be five people and now with there are just three at least for the time being of the german command and it's time to get us to will have to change its plans now there will be obviously thought few experiments and there will be no space walks anymore so heading for you astronauts is not that dramatic not that bad but it's not great especially because nobody can say how now when as a next group i fly to the ais is you know as one astronaut said today in outer space three people is nice but having five people on board is even nicer you're a shutter on the storyboard

this is you know really was a line from berlin close call a rocket carrying a crew to the international space station fails in midair but the astronauts make it back safely the launch in kazakhstan appeared to go well at first but minutes after blast off the two astronauts reported a problem and were forced to make an emergency landing where moscow also coming up florida's most violent storm for more than a century lashes the u.s. state with fierce winds and torrential rains leaving a trail of destruction. plus the syrian refugee children in lebanon forced onto the streets to make a living we meet omar and use them like many refugee children they face abuse and violence as they struggle to help their families make ends meet. on little rock thank you so much for joining us everyone a blow for the russian space program an astronaut and a cosmonaut have been forced to make an emergency landing just minutes after liftoff the pair parachuted down in kazakhstan after a booster on their so use rocket failed on route to the international space station fortunately they are safe and said to be in good health r

the united states is capable of -- if they have an objective in mind, which was international cooperation on the space station, they were able to find a way through this, not of peaceful use of the international space, so that the other countries could join. it's that leadership on the part of the united states and it's not only money and it is an approach and it's technology and it's a common history and it is a common set of values. >> excellent. perfectly summarized with where we wanted to go with this panel. this from mr. brightenstein and mr. laport, and it's a governmental presentation and we're going to move on to hearing from our first panel which is communications and earth observation and scientific research and it bears carrying with us through the rest of the day the importance in this relationship on common values, our privileged access and understanding of each other and our shared commitment to cooperation in excellence and results. so please join me in thanking mr. laport and mr. evans. thank you.

there are a lot of huge questions now offer both russia's space industry bill because the international space stationmmes. all international astronauts currently rely on russian rockets, russian launch system. there's a big question about whether this means a pause in bunches while those over the investigation into what went on and goes on beyond that. —— a pause in launches. the biggest zombie safety of the astronauts left. ashe is currently in orbit on the international space station. the two rationales were heading up there to relieve them. still questions as to what happened next. certainly investigation has been launched. i should say, the soyuz is an extremely reliable rocket. it has been launching into space for many decades and in fact the last time there was an accident on launch with cruise on—board there was an accident on launch with cruise on—boa rd with there was an accident on launch with cruise on—board with 35 years ago. i think this is a big blow to russia, to its beef industry. thank you very much. -- to its space industry. two people have died after the most powerful storm in deca

this is deja vu news coming to you live from berlin or look at scat in the crew of the international space station fails in mid air the launch from kazakhstan appeared to go right at first but then minutes off to blast off the two astronauts one russian and one american reported a problem and were forced to make an emergency landing dreaming of the very latest from moscow also coming up the most modern storm in florida's recent history continues to rage hurricane mike and lashes the state with fierce winds and torrential rain leaving behind a creative destruction. and a new report shows record numbers of people around the world as a risk from hunger and malnutrition yemen is all the countries where people especially children are suffering the most nearly thirty percent of the population there on the brink of starvation. hunger well welcome to you live on the thai cheema two astronauts were forced to make an emergency landing just minutes after liftoff they reported to be safe and in good health the pair parachuted down in kazakhstan after a booster on this soyuz rocket freed all routes to the inte

there they'll be fine to get back it's possible that the space station will look to extend their stay up there basically to avoid having the international space station be unintended. but whether or not that will happen how long that will happen and when the next crew will launch all that is still very much in the air so nasa is crossbows or both investigating and they're both looking at how to move forward but again they can only move so fast i guess i mean it only did just happen megan barsel senior writer at space dot com night and thank you you thank. now in the us hurrican michael has now killed six people after smashing into florida it's pushed on northeast across georgia and into the carolinas which are still recovering from hurricane florence just last month many coastal towns in ne florida are still cut off twenty four hours after the category four storm made landfall and residents are being advised to stay where they are unlike most americans michael didn't drop to a tropical storm until it had traveled more than three hundred kilometers inland and gallagher has more now from the coastal city of apalachicola well as night fell

tin to the international space station. they were forced to make what's called a ballistic descent to abort their mission to the international space station are to blast off from kazakhstan the two crew members and out of the capsule and reportedly in good health let's go to our correspondent voyage chalons who is joining us live from moscow so how did this happen of all it why did the launch phase. well that is something that the investigators are going to be looking at of course and it's too soon i think to say exactly what went wrong on this mission but it appears that one hundred nineteen seconds after liftoff something catastrophic happens on boards this spacecraft what looks like happens is that there was a problem with the separation of the booster sections of the rockets and that this put into process an automatic. aborts process basically and that the capsule was then eject seeds its launch its parachutes and it came back down to worth the two men on board an american astronaut called nick a the russian cosmonaut ca

because at the moment it is the only way that astronauts and cosmonauts can get up to the international space station it's been that way since nasa retired its space shuttle program many years ago so it's essentially a workhorse for international manned space missions and for it to be grounded for any serious length of time would have serious ramifications for how long the international space station car could carry on being used i see as well read they're pulling the plug on manned missions until further notice do you think it's just a safety belt and braces reaction or are they perhaps worried that there's a a systematic or a systemic floor here that they've yet to identify. well i think they're just playing it safe on that front because you know if if the commission the investigation technical investigations into this accident turn up anything systemic then of course it would be incredibly foolish to keep on launching soyuz rockets up to space and run the risk of something like this happening again it's going to have a knock on effect of course for the immediate future of the international space s

and when they land back in moscow we spoke to leroy chiao a retired at nasa astronaut and international space station commander he went through what could have caused the failure and the experience for those on board. i think you are to a space station aboard so you struck it myself came back in this one capsule on my fourth mission and so you know kind of brought me back to what it's like being in that vehicle and imagining going through this kind of an emergency aboard because you heard transmissions the crew was very calm first of special and they did everything check right and so first and foremost of course we're all very pleased that the crew is safe and hopefully there will be one the way to the landing site and now it's just a matter of investigation in term of what happened what corrective action came in recertifying each a launch. even though it's early to speculate based on what i saw on the replays of the launch coverage right after the four strap on booster separated there seem to be more debris coming off suggesting perhaps that one or more of the strap ons may have hung up and may have

bio printer to the international space station. three d. printing technology is hardly new it's already being used to print anything from weapons to houses printing in turn is being developed as a way to print human organs and tissue research that could save the lives of millions of people but why send the technology to space well scientists growing artificial cells on earth say they don't take on the same structure as they would in the human body but in reduced gravity the cells have a more natural shape so sending them to space could produce serious strides forward for the medical community back on earth earlier we got a demonstration of how the technology works with us to the mob by putting a lot of our going off. and actually doesn't look like a classical loss three d. printer because you will not find here ex-wife well from all of that muscle so he will use magnetic forces for mothers and also call them teachers for hours so i'm going to do it through the bone with you and some of the crew through and you will see the process so it's f

nation despite the temporary suspending of manned space flights. >> they were headed for the international space station. this rocket is the only way for now to get there. what about the astronauts who are on board the inteational space statn? flex this certnly is not a reason for panic or a question for survival for them. there is enough food, water, and oxygen on the iss for at least the next year. also, astronauts on the iss can return to earth in a knuckle spit -- and another space shuttle docked on th iss. the astronauts will now be shorthanded. there were supposed to be five people. now there are just three, at least for the time being. the german commander will have to change his plans now. there will bewalks anymore, so having fewer astronauts is not that dramatic or that bad, but it's t great, especially because nobody can sayhen the next crew can fly to tss. >> as one astronaut said today in out space, three people is nice, but having five people on board is even nicer. thank you. here are some of the other stories now making headlines around the world. the head of the eastern orthodox chch ha

so russia is not suspending manned space launches to the international space station after the cause of a rocket failure to. lift up and there is lift off. to the international space station on board an american astronaut and a russian cosmonaut they were forced to make what is called a ballistic re-entry by parachute which when the russian soyuz rocket aborted its blastoff they survived enormous g. forces during their emergency landing in stun chalons in moscow. in the wake of this catastrophic accident on board the soyuz rockets russia has launched two investigations we have a commission that is basic green set up to investigate what exactly happens on this launch and why it went wrong but then the russian any investigative committee has also launched a criminal investigation into the construction of the rocket which i think indicates how seriously russia is taking this at the moment and how much it wants to assure its partners in nasa that the soyuz is a safe and reliable vehicle for delivering people into space because at the moment it is the only means by which people can get up

russia has opened a criminal investigation after a rocket bound for the international space station failed to shortly after takeoff the two man crew an american and the russian survived after making an emergency landing in kazakhstan but it does means that it does mean the current space station crew could be stuck there until january or a challenge from moscow. with the traditional wave of departing spacemen make hay and alexei of gin in said goodbye to worth they'd be back sooner than they thought since the demise of nasa space shuttle program russia's so you system is currently the only way for people to get up to the international space station the russian and the american to begin one hundred and eighty seven days in orbit. but first they have to get there the launch seemed to go well initially the rocket lifted off into the cloudless skies above baikonur kazakstan but one hundred nineteen seconds into the journey there was a catastrophic malfunction you hear the soyuz making its way into space. inside the capsule video shows the two men being shaken about before the feed is cut to a c

clarifying as well really briefly this was going to replenish or take these two guys up to the international space station the goes on the international space station at the moment they're ok although there's going to be a bit of a hiatus before everything is on hold now electron work very quickly i mean everyone up there is ok they've now going to be hard to find the absolutely find the rations they are not sure what about that also there are plenty of options to you know to restock them without i mean americans are capable the space x. is capable of delivering delivering food and rations they're like any cargo they want the three d. printer that was onboard with the with this crew is ok too apparently so they've only had to postpone some experiments but i mean that is the least damage that could have been dealt by a situation like we witnessed ok all right now of course it was a joint russian and u.s. arsenal going up there the u.s. space agency is issued a statement now we can tell you about that following the incident earlier on because as i say one of those engineers the flight engineer was an americ

us ease north go in to discontinue using russian services to fly their astronauts to the international space station and the good news for alexei of chaining an e k we hear from the head of ross cost me to the cause in that they will fly to the international stage space station and their flight is should build for spring next. this is what he told us. where american stars cd these guys will fly we planned for their flight to be in the spring of next year . and we know that until the cause exact cause of things today is determined all space flights must be suspended thursday incident became a real shock for all the people involved in space industries for both sides of the atlantic and russian american people course for crew members and their families and their friends but again for public jane you're all of russian space industry didn't see an incident like this in the last thirty five years this is why it is really very important right now to be careful and unser in the question what caused this model function back to you thanks for bringing us right up to date from a very a total looking star sitti

big question looking on from above with all this would you believe the crew on board the international space station had more than a bird's eye view of what happened they captured it all on camera we've got this photos show you this image was taken by the current space station commander alexander you can just make out the white streaks the smoke from the rockets that goes to this team were actually readying to welcome their colleagues just a few hours after that but. you see you can just watch helplessly as they saw those astronauts incredible escape as they fell quickly but then they were forget even four hundred kilometers up the crew on the girl's relief was palpable. i'm glad that our friends are fine thanks to more than a thousand rescue workers this day has again shown how great this i uses this by the fall start the group was safely brought back to earth space travel is stuff but we must go on for the benefit of humanity when you've got more than half a million pounds a burning rocket fuel behind you and a booster has gone faulty in flame imagine need to get away and fast well for thursday so
