the result of that was the nasa bill that set up nasa.ecame president, he implemented -- interestingly, he always give kennedy credit for having had that vision of going to the moon by the end of the decade and return safely. ms. hutchison: interestingly, also in the history, that was correct and it was a neutral decision that as we were building then on what kennedy and johnson started, we needed to have a separate place where the astronauts would be trained, where they would build the whole system to go into space. for all of the different factors, the houston area was chosen, clearly. and johnson died before that got started. it was roy benson who introduced the bill, to name it johnson space center. mr. nelson: it was actually dedicated while he was still alive but he was called the manned space flight center. and you are telling me what i didn't know, that senator benson changed the name. ms. hutchison: and johnson was already dead. he knew everything johnson had done in the senate because they've been serving together all those year

early thursday morning, israeli forces shelled the patient ward at nasa hospital. dr. alser sent us this video of doctors scrambling to move their patients out in the immediate after. now, on friday, the palestinian health ministry reports that, quote, three patients died in intensive care as a result of the power outage and the cessation of oxygen in the nasa medical complex. two women gave birth in inhumane conditions without electricity, water, food and heating, and fourth patient at nasa was murdered as a result of the cessation of electrical generators and the cessation of oxygen at dawn on friday. israeli occupation forces forced men, women and children to move from the old nasa building without luggage to the maternity building, which they turned into a military barracks, that was from the health ministry on friday morning. joining us to talk about the current situation at nasa hospital and israel's systematic and relentless targeting of hospitals across gaza is dr. mads gilbert. mads is a norwegian physician who for years has worked alongside doctors and nurses

how can smaller businesses enhance nasa's future to the nasa small business innovation research and smallbusiness technology transfer programs to effectively compete for the open contracts in this burgeoning space economy? >> senator, thanks for asking,, topic that a interested in. i do believe that small businesses are the backbone of our country economically, but also bring that kind of innovation that we need for the mission that we have. we are very excited to say that we embrace the amount of money we have awarded to small businesses by hundreds of millions of dollars over the last five years or so, and as you pointed out they are a key part of that. where the great examples come from the state the std that's advanced space who developed the capstone mission which is even now exploring the novel near rectilinear hand orbit around them in a preparation for future human spaceflight activities there. to help us understand that orbit better so that we can be more efficient as we operate and that stored under an sbir in 2015. >> absolutely. mr. coleman, administrator coleman, your testimo

any minute we expect an update from nasa after this true? really historic moon landing last night, step back in history with me to this time yesterday, we were anxiously awaiting to see if this small private american company partnering with nasa could pull off landing on the moon surface for the first time in more than 50 years. and then nasa administrator bill nelson came here to this desk on the lead and he announced there were technical difficulties. >> in fact, he seemed to be preparing us for the chance that this lunar lander, nicknamed odie might crash into the moon well, it's white-knuckle time. their ability to land is not where the radar, but with light pulses called lidar and it is on the blink. >> it's not working >> it's not working whether that eventually degrades into a crash on the moon or out into space. i don't know the answer to that let's hope that this might be one of those miracles so after all that, and those white-knuckle moments, the miracle apparently did happen and the company behind odie announced that the lander w

what is in this for nasa? this — our planet. what is in this for nasa? what is in this fori nasa? this particular mission our planet. what is in this for. nasa? this particular mission is art of nasa? this particular mission is part of their _ nasa? this particular mission is part of their commercial - nasa? this particular mission is part of their commercial lunar l part of their commercial lunar services programme and they are basically contracting private companies to take some of their scientific instruments and payloads to the moon and by doing this we are allowing nasa to spend its reserves to few resources and finances on some of its deep exploration goals like the artemis programme —— to spend its resources and finances for the companies like this are laying the companies like this are laying the groundwork and the scientific exploration near the lunar south pole which is where they hope to target and build a lunar base. imilli target and build a lunar base. will we see more _ target and build a lunar base. will we see more of this in the future?

this feat _ at nasa. what a triumph. this feet is — at nasa. what a triumph.asa. what a triumph. this feat is a giant leap forward for all_ feat is a giant leap forward for all of— feat is a giant leap forward for all of humanity. the intuitive _ for all of humanity. the intuitive machine's - for all of humanity. the | intuitive machine's team for all of humanity. tie: intuitive machine's team now needs to check the condition of the spacecraft and the status of what is on board. nasa has paid the company to carry six of its scientific instruments. it is the first ever commercial lander to reach the learner surface and marks a return there for america. it has been more than 50 years since the united states landed on the moon. last time was in 1972 and is where apollo 17 set down to the fore that there were five other apollo missions that made it down to the lunar surface and they were all around the moon's equator. but now the united states is heading down to the south pole and this is the landing site of the new intuitive machines mission. it is a further rest

israeli occupation forces forced men, women and children to move from the old nasa building, without luggage to the maternity building, which they turned into a military barracks, that was from the health ministry on friday morning. joining us to talk about the current situation at nasa hospital and israel's systematic and relentless targeting of hospitals across gaza is dr. maz gilbert. mads is a norwegian physician who for years has worked alongside doctors and nurses in gaza. dr. mads, welcome back to the electronic intofada podcast. thank you so much under dire condition. but still good to see you, thanks to you so much as well, um, mads, you've been in touch with doctors and medical staff at nasa hospital over the last week, give us a sense of what they're dealing with, i mean, we we just saw those images of patients being ordered to evacuate, others lined up on their gernies in the corridor of an older building, and of course we've heard the reports of quad copters shooting anyone who moves inside the hospital and and in the courtyard near the entrance to them. cy department, w

today, nasa gets just 0.4% of all federal spending. and these commercial companies, jake, get even less, were talking about just $100 million. that's what hollywood tries. that's the budget for like a big hollywood movie. so the other reasons experience the people in mission control have never done this before. all the apollo mission controllers are now long gone, are passed in their retirement, so to speak. and then just the technical issues, the distance, it's really far, and the terrain, as i mentioned, really tough as well, jake, this is still just a trump mendeley difficult thing to do, even though humans first did it more than half a century ago >> yeah. but you're i was born 1969, right? kristen stick around. i want to bring in cnn aerospace, aerospace analyst miles o'brien, and planetary scientist and author jim bell, who also works with nasa on its mars rover missions, miles, how significant is this moment we're in right now, the us attempting something. it has not in 50 years well, just that fact is worth pausing and thinking

they teamed up with nasa to demonstrate the nasa-develop electrodynamic dust shield. it uses an electric field to remove dust. the technology was tested aboard the international space station and will be the first ever demonstration of eds technology on the lunar surface. intuitive machines also had several cameras on the lender, including wide and narrow view cameras. they started the mission with incredible imagery. they started the mission with incredible imagery. capturing iconic images of the earth after separation. this requires a lot of planning, work, and just a hint of luck. they took five quick images every five minutes fro two hours. out of all of those images, we ended up with just four inspiring ones to show humanity's place in the universe. we are just a little more than 10 minutes away. i am here with the associate administrator for the science commissioner directory. it is a great day. you are watching this. what is happening in the room right now? just before the final maneuvers? >> it is excitement, anticipation. everybody knows that landing on the m

firefly airspace is partnering with nasa.le out funding to those who want to make a business going to the moon. plenty of companies are interested. as this return to the moon gets mature, there will be even more opportunities for companies. caroline: we will turn to you in those moments. thank you. coming up, all the details, how disputes within klarna have spilled over into a high-profile drama. rivian shares drama, long-term shareprice chart, down almost 90%, on the back of lackluster earnings posted after the bell wednesday. yesterday the stock fell hard, they said they would let go of staff as well. this is bloomberg. ♪ caroline: vc drama brewing. sequoia named a new board member for klarna in an effort to calm issues between the founders. extraordinary story. what's going on? what's the spark of the issue? >> ugh, it's a mess. what happened is unclear. there was some dispute at klarna about governance or control issues and sequoia's partner, on the board, matt miller, saw things one way, and michael moore it's, legendary

yes, nasa has contracted — say that is the goal.ed with a number- say that is the goal. yes, nasa has contracted with a number of- contracted with a number of different commercial providers to hopefully, we will see the first successful landing in a few days, a week or so from the odysseus, but there are a number of other providers who are trying to do this. you may recall about a month ago, another provider was not successful unfortunately, hopefully they will be next time. but these landers are to pave the way by characterising the environment for setting the pace and the stage for a presence of a lunar base of humans. 50 and the stage for a presence of a lunar base of humans.— and the stage for a presence of a lunar base of humans. so give us a timeframe — lunar base of humans. so give us a timeframe for _ lunar base of humans. so give us a timeframe for that, _ lunar base of humans. so give us a timeframe for that, the _ lunar base of humans. so give us a timeframe for that, the aim - lunar base of humans. so give us a timeframe

and then there's also the government nasa. sure. how >> important are these public-private partnerships when it comes to exploring space for the united states i have already become absolutely critical and today's mission actually plays a big part in nasa's mission, the artemis program to return american astronauts to the moon. now by 2026. so what they're doing is they're essentially outsourcing all of the robotic missions to private companies they're saying, hey, here's $100 million. go do this fast. eventually if this mission is successful, they want them to use this to bring up rovers for the astronauts. so it's kind of a supply mission eventually up for the artemis astronauts and again, that should be happening in 2026. >> all right. kristin fisher, miles o'brien, j. bell. thanks so much and keep it here for coverage of the moon landing ahead. i'm going to talk with nasa administrator bill nelson about the significance of this mission and coming up next on the lead, a brand new decision today from the judge overseeing trump's ci

nasa has done that before. we've done that before as humans and the other challenge is not to be deterred if something doesn't go absolutely correct because we learn every time i also heard that the comments about how much it cost to go to the moon and adjusted dollars in the past versus now. and working with commercial, we have to remember that right now commercial is building up on everything that we learned through the 60s. the gemini, the mercury, the apollo programs, other countries landing, we have new technology like lidar and other things that had been built into this much more computing power so this is just, again, a way of understanding how we can do this. really checking this through. so the challenges are yes. let's make sure we have these connections in it's integrated and it's able to work. but at the same time, don't lose faith, don't lose hope or think that this is not worth whiles are really important points. williams shan thank you so much for joining us had been a big fan of years for many y

at the same time, what nasa wants to do is that nasa wants to show that it can bring external companies to build the infrastructure that will be necessary for the kind of expansion of wants to have. so if we're looking at judging the success of this particular mission, what we want to do is understand that this company was able to provide the entire service from the beginning drawings, all the way through delivery on the surface and operation on the surface. and if it can do this consistently, mission after mission, these things will, it will look like if this is a successful endeavor for nasa. so this is the idea of private companies being used as a delivery service for nasa. if we assume that there is an importance of significance to being able to land on the moon. now, why has it taken not some old and 50 is to do a little bit with the help of private companies. other count, the countries have done at china, india, japan, why 50 is as well, you know, we have to remember that what nasa has been doing as many other things in the meantime. none of those countries have had a successful s

peer is a nasa administrator. bill: on the eighth day of a quarter million mile voyage, a voyage along a great cosmic bridge from the launchpad at the kennedy space center to the target in the south pole of the moon, a commercial lander named odysseus, powered by a company called intuitive machines, launched upon a spacex rocket, carrying a bounty of nasa scientists with instruments and bearing the dream of a new adventure, a new adventure in science, innovation, and american leadership in space. all of that aced the landing of a lifetime. today, for the first time in more than a half-century, the u.s. has returned to the moon. today for the first time in the history of humanity, a commercial company, an american company launched and led the voyage up there. today is a day that shows the power and promise of nasa's commercial partnerships. congratulations to everyone involved in this great quest that intuitive machines, space x and right here at nasa. what a triumph. odysseus has taken the moon. this feat is a gia

because again, right now, with 60% in nasa this is a 20-point swing from republicans winning nasa byeading nassau by tan. ten. again expect this number when the remaining vote is, inability democratic victory in nassau county is huge because this was ten points for the republicans in 2022 and what we saw in queens earlier, we talked about this, the may actually be all the vote in queens the city of new york is telling us on the website, we're trying to confirm, make sure there's nothing forgotten there. but this portion of the district, this is a 23 and a half point advantage for tom suozzi. in 2022 the democrats won queens by four points. this is almost 20 points north of the 2022 performance in queens. this is a massive over performance by suozzi relative to 2022. zoom out districtwide, a 13- point advantage for him right now, districtwide. again, santos the republican won the district by eight points, biden the democrat in 2020 when the district by eight points. this could end up being a double digit suozzi victory, possibly even exceeding what joe biden did here four years ago. >

we'll keep cowling as an editor at nasa watch in washington dc. he told us how excited he was to see this landing happen. well, as i mentioned before, i, the last time this happened. i would, can you hear me? okay. yeah, we can hear you say on the surface all kept, sorry. i hit the wrong button here for the last time i was honest about spend half a century since we saw this and i was in high school, so whole guy liked me. i'm happy to see us back on the moon. i was asked, it was another air at the time who said what, how do we know when it lands? because the numbers are all over. they should watch the guy sitting at the console a week back. and those are classic definitely, you know, the later the mon, this exact habits gave what, what can you tell us about the state of the craft after the landing? how's it going? well, the, the initial problem was that they knew it is landed. they just get the right signal . now they have a weak signal. it could be something as simple as, as it lands it as these dishes on. it may be either in the little bit in th

in january we saw another partner with nasa, part short program with nasa, a company that failed to putder on the moon and had to forgo the landing afterward had an engine mishap in space. we are now getting confirmation -- they are trying to work to confirm that intuitive machines are working on being able to bring us that confirmation of a signal from the moon lander. so much is at stake in terms of what they're trying to achieve. paul: we should not under emphasize how complicated this is. it really is a coin toss in terms of success or failure, pretty much 50-50. they have been tan attempted one landing since february 2019. just three have been successful, one from china, one from india and one from japan, all government-backed. all the private missions have ended in failure. india was interesting because it sat down near the south pull of the moon, a critical destination because of the water rights in the aream we saw updates when it come to the indian mission. open insertion, entering lunar orbit. there have been steady updates from intuitive machines on your blog actually. we saw

we were earlier joined by political analyst nasa mashni. he said israel's genocidal war under god. strip is not a war against hamas, but rather attempt to expel palestinians from their ancestral land. let's see, listen. the reality is what we seeing is what palestinians have known all along, this is not a war on hamas, it's not a war on gaza, this is a war on palestinians, whether it's the death toll and the injury toll, whether as you said before, the destruction of every piece of civilian infrastructure, from hospitals and roads, schools, mosks, churches, even the third oldest church on earth, this is a war, a genocidal war on palestinians, on the right of palestinians to living. in their ancestral homes and is an extension of the racist, zionist, settle colonialist agender and regime. number of un experts have sounded the alarm about the deteriorating humanitarian situation in the gaza strip calling for immediate seasfy in the war ravaged territory. the experts noted that the people of gaza have lost access to suitable medical... service

these commercial joint enterprises with nasa?— joint enterprises with nasa?asa? without a doubt, this is— joint enterprises with nasa? without a doubt, this is the _ joint enterprises with nasa? without a doubt, this is the future. _ joint enterprises with nasa? without a doubt, this is the future. the - a doubt, this is the future. the only reason we are talking about any of this entrepreneurial activity, private investment capital and innovation is because of spacex and because of nasa's early bets on spacex and their early contracts. basically, the government, figuring out how to contract with these more agile and innovative companies, they removed the barriers to entry and enabled entrepreneurship and innovation to flourish in an area with a market was really limited by design previously. so, certainly the government being a customer of many customers on board a spacecraft like this, this is how they are contracting with spacex, this is how they are contracting with these commercial lunar payload services contractors such as intuitive machines and several

nasa is a sponsor.everal payloads on this mission, but just like with all these spacex launches admissions, we are at the mercy of these private companies to give us pictures and give us the state. and i will say intuitive machines. and the previous us landing attempt last month asked her biotic, they were both very transparent, but all of us journalists following this really want some more information right now about the status. >> yeah, we're we're not yet kristin fisher. thank you. miles o'brien, leland melvin as well well, of course. bring you the lunar surface images if and when they come in, we should also mention that leland is executive producer of the national geographic film the space race, which tells the story of america is pioneering black astronauts check that out, coming up next more. breaking news is president biden prepares to announce new sanctions on russia in the wake of alexey navalny's death also tonight, a report on the state of the war in ukraine from a hard-hit city, kherson on

nasa's point is this is a new era. involved and that could help drive the costs down. there is a trade-off because it could mean there is a higher chance of something going wrong, so you have to have a higher risk tolerance when you are spending less money. for instance, we had the mission last month by astrorobotic, which never got to the moon, an indication that if you are spending less money there is a greater chance things are going to go wrong, but it is a risk you're willing to take if you are nasa because it is part of a longer-term plan of how we are going to have a sustainable presence in space that is not going to break the budget. yvonne: certainly the u.s. celebrating that victory when it comes to commercial space race. bruce einhorn, thank you. some top geopolitical stories we are tracking. leaked documents from isson seemed to outline chinese cyberattacks on foreign governments. the document is seen to be authentic and seems to show attacks made in 2021 and 2022. targets include the royal thai army and th
