to collect rock samples for study back here on us. china is one of a growing list of countries and, and private companies looking to plant the flags on the lunar surface, but just in the name of science and exploration. but also for reasons of profit and power. so who's in charge of their i'm feel go invalid and this is the day the the launch mission is a complete success. everyone including united states in the top hand. they are all time to get to the more detail repeat of the mysteries, these to us, how china it's been a rough, able to, to be dropped, such a and beatrice and successful program in such a short time tie. not as an emergent super power doesn't want to be lifted behind.

they is the ultimate highbrow is the opportunity to signal leadership to the rest of the world. thing here, look how strong our capabilities are. i think we're already in a space race. the us in china also coming up, the rising star of francis fall, writes is 28 year old. the show down by della the new fire brands disrupt to a french politics. see me if you refuse to be a frenchman on his knees. and what does your frenchman standing proud then you belong with us? what corporate us? he thought no could be of him to the day a china has launched an unprecedented admission to the fall side of the moon. the tongue 6 pro lifted off from the southern island province to find that it's expected to

return in around 2 months with around 2 kilos of luna samples. the launch is the latest advance in china. i'm fisher, space exploration program, which now rivals that of the united states side of my history in 2019, when it became the 1st country to land rover unlimited saw side. so he is more about visions, latest mood admission. john 6 aims to connect to the new materials from the fall side of the mood and bring it back to us. it's a complex mission that will involve several you. we're both take modules working together. the a for me to a long space craft will 1st over the moon and then deploy a land to the side that is never visible from us. any target the south pole 8 can base in the law just no impact quite just in the solar system using a mechanical drill and scoop the land a will collect 2 g,

those of soil and rocks and the send the mode you and attached to the lambda will block back into a new orbit and transfer the samples to the re entry vehicle. if all goes well, it will carry the cargo safely back to us, the scientist. so the sample review new information about the means early evolution. it's fall side is the logically different from the one we see from uh it has a stick across and its smoke has different chemical composition the on the 6. and so have instruments made in europe on board. inspect told me that you are from suite and will investigate the interaction between solar winds and the luminous surface. when solar wind sweep across the needs,

they create an electric charge that can endanger afternoon and equipment. the effect is most pronounced on the crate to edges in the polar regions the these present blue paved the way the china is good for you to the landing, which it hopes to achieve by 2030. both the us and china, one to establish bases at the moon's south pole. so a lot of ben, it's zack, is an assistant professor specializing in space. security johns hopkins university joins us from washington. welcome to the w. the last couple of years has seen china and the us and india all landing on the moon. what do you think is behind this accelerated lunar action? thank you for having me in for inviting me. um to show, uh, well uh,

space in general space capabilities support and hand services, infrastructures development, security back home. and at the same time they added to those countries and shows for precision assess and national pride of domestically. they also help development back home. so i think there's several drivers behind those recent events in space. it does seem to have a accelerated though over these last few years. it seems to have summaries the race yes. um menu on the many have described what is happening currently as a race um and one could potentially see that this race because we're all trying to get to the same place, the softball, the one around the same time frame. uh and various countries are developing capabilities to the end. um however, and the one in itself is not the end point for say is perhaps we'll have more time

to discuss. it is just a stepping stone towards future emissions towards the future exploration of space. so it is very difficult to describe this a raise if there's no end side right now you mentioned in, in the list of reasons why countries might be going up the science and technology, but buried with him. that was the, the military aspect. should we presume that all middle trees around the world looking at how they can actually use the moon? absolutely, actually the militarization of space has been with us since the dawn of the space age. the 1950s. the nation of space is simply using space to support really, to emissions back on earth. what we should be worried about is actually the weapons ation space using space for offensive purposes. uh no, i must say that all the missions of having to now with that have been conducted so far, including of those to the one so,

so all those missions are and happy new nouns to send 2 technicians with the goal to explore, to learn and to prepare for eventual human settlements on the moon and beyond. in fact, the outer space treaty rectified by all major space faring countries actually, specifically for beads, this stablish list of really 3 bases of really 3 installations of any sort of monitors for 2 cations, as well as the testing of any types of weapons. and the conduct of military maneuvers of the lesser bodies including the more so um, so the offensive side of the defensive use of space is could be the, the joshua's base law. however, the use of military personnel for scientific research and for any other purpose is actually allowed. so, according to current national space law, in the exploration and use of our space, including the one, all countries should be guided by the principal of corporation and mutual

assistance. and so far, oh, now missions are a week ago to explore, learn it's, i mean, but that sounds great in theory, and these go to the rules governing who can do, walked up there, but it scares me. if we look at china who's just sent this, this latest mission up, if you look at what time it was doing, down here on in the south, china say, well, you look at the idea of it. they want to establish a base up on the moon and you would ask yourself, well, why wouldn't they want to claim it for their own as well. uh, that's a very good question. uh. first of all, anybody can claim anything of faith. even individuals have claimed asteroids actually face as it was the case the arrows. and that was claimed by a, by an american individual. so anybody can go back and claim it. basically,

you know, the plastic, the flag, anybody can claim anything. but really the, the, the, the realities of space is very different codes and to a sort of, sort of, ownership of something space. you also have to be able to defend it, to hold onto that position. and of course, we have to say that international law, the outer space, slow to beat the national recreation of anything in space. so china cannot just claim something because because it wants to do so. but even if it does, even if it decides to go against it just was very slow that theresa aggravating spending, anything joshua community. and i understand the floor space is very hard. it's very difficult to actually do anything in space alone or just one of the reasons actually trying to pause. i tried is not going along to the moment. it is actually going together with 10 other states and several non governmental entities. just

a quick word on it, because we know that when these missions go up, they have a big gather up of kilos of dust and bring it down to us and examine it. what happens uh, what are the rules around trashes found on the move if they bring back some, some fantastic superconducting read us. do that gets to just isn't find this keepers or that more rules that say no, you can't do that. and then how do we full such rules? this is the, this is an excellent question. it's a question actually, is this country being explored and discussed at the united nations? what exactly are the rules of extracting in using institute to elements, the institute of resources? what exactly is the space resource? how much can we extract? so do we have the right to look struction? how much can we do if we do in the matter of the fact is that we have both

back samples from the one before, including china with chunky 5 in 2020 actually 4 pounds of it. at that time, the apollo astronauts also brought samples from the moon. so preston's show has shown that presidents have shown that we can bring samples back from the one at least 4 pounds. and that will be that, that, that hasn't post a problem. however. 2 the rules are still being defined and discussed to the system level. so see how that that goes on. so which country do you think which super rich individual is closest to establishing a base on the moon? so this is the, this is, this is an excellent question and i'm very happy that you actually opened it up not only for states, but just based on what the various entities have said right now are to miss 3 that

this lady to be the 1st cruise mission on the moon landing on the moon from the arguments program. so this one is scheduled for september 2026. they planned to use a starship lender and develop a space accept this to actually, i'm going that's thing. china and the china lead blog post quoted actually several days between 20262030. it definitely could last 2 land taken off on the moon by 2030. so based on those very per seminary announcements, it would seem like it could be the archimedes block. but as you pointed out, um they're heavy other countries that they've also mentioned successfully on the one include the india in 2023 and several others. the attempted to lend them the one including israel and japan. and then of course we have individuals. um, actually uh, jeff bezos is blue origin is very interested. and so we're going to be having some

christian in it. so we're going to have very crowded up. okay, thank you. sure. as for driving through the course, so that lot of a ben, it's zack from johns hopkins university. thank you so much. i thank you. i think it really speaks to young people because image speaks to young people and they're supposed to level. i think he has a lot of ideas for young people from the speaking of the young people on the future about the things that will affect us. so i don't know, i don't know just in front of that expressing in series. yes, i'm for a rising star of friendship. on the 628, you hold to jordan by della about that i took over as leader of francis fall, right. national in raleigh, hockey from marine pen. does the process lead kansas in next month? you'll see the elections. speaking of the campaign event this week of supporters to touch and launch numbers. national valley has been leading the poles that had

a wide vote and bought the ones the election to be seen as a mid term referendum on the government of president emmanuel. macro scruples was in my proposal to voters on june. 9th is clear so soon it is to send a message to the french government and my crowns idea of europe, and i don't know. and on the other hand, to pay the way for a new government, immediate outcome, we will see because the dissolution of the national assembly, so that somebody. and that's who and then we'll see audrey has been following by that as a rise. she's a professor, a french at stanford university in the united states. welcome to the w professor. how is this young man just 28, a so a pending french politics to well, the great advantage that she has is that she is now the leader of a party that has been on the rise for 10 years. but contrary to my having to bend, we used to be the leader of that party and they still are the national candidate

for presidential elections. he has a blank states in terms of political weight. he doesn't have the name of the pen, which in france is pretty inflammatory and is connected to somebody live in a week who had a really bad reputation for anti semitism in the eighty's ninety's and up to 2012. actually georgia and the dela appears to be the new face of the national rally. and so he's never been an executive control with executive power. so there's actually no negative things attached to these names so far. and so how is a natural valley expected to perform in these coming european elections? so for the 2nd time in the your pain election, they're supposed to be there for the leader in the not in the polls and to be the 1st party for france. approximately 31 percent are alleged to be voting

for the national rally next to him. i'm how did he manage to take over control of this policy from the pen dentist? a why? what did you say that you took over control actually might have been continues to rain in the background and all decisions come back to her, including, you know, who is on the list for the european elections. who's going to be running for president in 2027. the agenda, the platform, everything actually in it continues to be in her power. however, she wanted to continue her normalization and leave the party and the small politics to jordan. but della was a great image, especially about the youth. has you just shown so that she could concentrate on running for election for the president of france. and also she, she can appear more states like a state person. she goes to meet for ministers and presidents. so

she's trying to, to keep above the swamps of politics, so to speak. right? in the fall, right? it's generally seen as, as a, as a, in the last few years or so. it's definitely seen as being appealing to all the less educated votes as but his appeal seems to be targeting the younger people because it's a west spot coming from. why are they both thing for him regardless of the fact that he is a clean slate? is it what is it better still be space, right wing, anti semitism, racism, backgrounds, to him and young people still seem to be flocking to. right. so actually, the older daughter is usually do not vote for the for right, because we have the longest historical memory, especially with world war 2 and, and national fonts. the, the former name of natural valley was funded by one former s as official actually.

and also people who were part of the calibration in france. so the stigma of the national thought is, is very alive in older generation. and the young do not have this historical memory . and even though he looked at and when she started to be into politics, she was a traffic they used thoughts in 20122017 jory. rodella continues to track the youth, felt we should qualify this by saying that another 25 percent of young people are calling to vote on the left and another 25 percent to the center right to my campaign it age. so the use of his various plug actually said you have. yeah, you also need the story around drove into there because the media love and you calmer and the success story. so there's this ripple effect and it is true that he has a huge, deep dark presence of social media presence. so he speaks the language of the use. that's for sure. okay,

now you've studied the importance of nationhood and french. this for the french identity. i want to play you a recent statement from mister bother and then get your thoughts. see if you want to restore the country's ambition and confident look hook, then you belong with us. you could see if you refuse to be a frenchman on his knees and want to hear a frenchman standing proud. then you belong with us. what corporate us, he thought no. good d cecile old. me. how much of a rallying cry is french nest vote is really believable. so the country's problems so it's a little bit like the make america. great. again, that from used as a slogan it's, it's the same idea that you know, france is on her knees and you need to tube assistant date her car or her grand or however, i think that is less about brushing us in this election. then as per training at the people who don't feel liberal, all the people who feel that being humiliated either economically not making ends

meet, not being recognized, not not seeing themselves represented and crawling into politics and giving them center stage in his speech. so the natural theme of you know, function is we are french, we want to stay french. it's certainly very present even is this course. but it's hard to do to assess whether this is a drawing thing for young people, especially what we see from compl was that people who have less time education, who are lower on the social status, who have academic difficulties, who feel that it's just, you know, barely surviving they come make inflation. they are the ones who are drawn to the national rally because they speak about people separate. so it's, it's a, it's comprise, with a natural narrative about french losing its ranking. but really what people connect to is that he's speaking about their stories of peeling this,

this asked for from the future from an economic position. and that's really what resonates with the daughters. fascinating analysis and reflecting for it to professor cecile audrey from stanford university. thank you as messy. thank you. the united nations has declared made the 3rd world press freedom day and dw is chosen to be reluctant, a champion from russia for its own freedom, a spring toward, usually at neville. now she's that i've seen that validation with a she died early this year in and he died early this year. and the optic presence on his death was widely seen as having been orchestrated by the russian government around the she has the board with the russian anti corruption foundation. the group founded by her late husband, which continues to fight against approved ends, russia. earlier this year, she cost to ballots in russia's presidential election at the embassy in berlin. an

election went and the re, low position had long been dealt with 5 academy polluted. following the day of alexi involved in the, in an article here, no problem. the opposition has but decimated in russia. and the arab parents is usually involved in the it's not her role. she's taken on by choice, but by necessity just 12 days after her husband's day, she addressed the you know, make is in stress but which includes my husband. i like seeing nobody on he so there's, i think see, was tortured for 3 years. she was starved in the car needs tone, so collado from the outside of the board and denied visits, phone calls, and then even the letters. and then they killed him. usually in the

bottom, the train does an economist. and with that, a bang before marrying alex in about in the, in 2000 and ivonya was long a quiet supposed to of her husband's anti correction. if it's, she was as close as political advisor and by his side as he went to court and prison, numerous times when charges criminal critics say what from the top. that price outgrew when a volunteer was poisoned in 2020. while her husband was fighting for his life in a hospital inside barea, she issued a public let's a duplicate, do me to 10. and let the pressure campaign to allow her husband to be floating to gemini for treatment. when alexa and i've only returned to russia in 2021, the police arrested him and detained eulley, and a volunteer separating the couple of goods. she long shunned the spotlights, but after her husband's harsh imprisonment and death,

she vowed to continue the fight against the kremlin lot. amy polluted, has a new vocal critic, not afraid to make use of the freedom of speech. before we go, humans have been using hubble remedies. for midland yet, but it saves one of the only species wise to the healing power of nature. sciences test, positive and the wrong of time in indonesia, treating a wound on its face with the medicinal plants is the 1st time that behavior has been observed in the while. around the time we've seen anything of plants known to have anti inflammatory and other prophecies and applying it directly to his wound. that's not move scientists who so no signs of infection. boutros, unfortunately, the result of a fight to soften the case. finally, a real, his legendary kobuck about a beach is getting up to hoss. the plan is biggest dance policy based off of
