on another celestial body. megan, i'll go as a senior lecturer in astrophysics at the university of central lancashire. she told me the artemus mission is a lot bigger than the ambitions of apollo. well, this is a lot bigger than that. the ambition of a polar mean polar was enough vicious program to take people to the moon for the 1st time and do all the science experiments that they did. but the aim as you were hearing there is actually not just to go back and do the same sort of things. this was done during apollo, but to go back to actually build a base to plan, to stay there for the long term. so to have astronauts up there in a similar kind of way that we've had a permanent mand, presence in space, the last couple of decades with the international space station. so actually doing more in the way of long duration presence on the moon. getting the technology right, testing bits of technology, testing bits of procedures, testing how well the astronauts can cope and that sort of environment for a prolonged length of time time scale, the latest news from the walcott. now his john as he raska in doha c

you appreciated to megan argo, joining us there from the university of central lancashire so also shooting for the moon, a japanese stars up that set out that sent up its own lunar lander on a space ex rocket mission by the company. ice base is called ha cooter, which means a white rabbit in japanese carrying lot of cargo, including the way eas, 1st lunar rover and a robot from japan that is designed to roll around on the moon surface. it's not going to be as quick as nasa. ryan, it'll take nearly 5 months to reach the moon because it's been designed to use minimal fuel to save money and leave more room for cargo. by contrast, a ryan took just 5 days on your dream. ah. just a great look at the main stories of following the sour, ukrainian, puerto des, sir, it has stopped operating after russia, the energy grid, 300000 people in the region are without power. it's a vital transport for delivering grain to much of the developing world. but the agriculture minister says exports will continue from 2 other ports. will landscape ukrainian governor saying the forces of struck bases by the kremlin

i do appreciate it and megan all good. joining us there from the university of central lancashire so also shooting for them, then a japanese starts out that set out that sent up its own lunar landa on a space ex rocket mission by the company i space is called how could 2, which means white rabbits and japanese carrying a lot of cargo, including the way east, 1st luna, rather than a robot from japan that's designed to roll around on the moon surface. it's not going to be as quick as nasa. ryan, it'll take me 5 months to reach them.

i�*m joined now by dr megan argo, who is an astro—physicist at the university of central lancashire. d of the new technologies that have _ mission? to test a load of the new technologies that have been - technologies that have been developed since the 60s and 70s, the last time we sentiments of the moon, you think how much technology has advanced in that time, rocket technology and electronics and computer systems and human safety systems, a lot of things need to happen before we put humans into rockets and send them the. has it been a success _ rockets and send them the. has it been a success and _ rockets and send them the. has it been a success and what - rockets and send them the. has it been a success and what have - rockets and send them the. has it been a success and what have we | been a success and what have we learned? . . , , been a success and what have we learned? ., ., , , ., been a success and what have we learned? ., , ., , .. ,, been a success and what have we learned? ., , .. ,, learned? that has been a success so far, we learned? that has been a success so far. we c
