conversation going on at mission control at the moment, and then the flight director will obviously make the final decision, and they will come to a final decision. they may reset the clock and they might reset it back ten minutes. they have, as a reminder, 20 minutes to get off today, and the federal aviation administration have told them they have a 20 minute window, so we can go have a 20 minute window, so we can 9° up have a 20 minute window, so we can go up to 20 minutes past the hour to get this beast off the ground, so they don't have to rush. everything up they don't have to rush. everything up to this point looked really good and there were no pauses earlier in the day and all of the propellant and methane and liquid oxygen went in as they should have done and the vehicle itself looks as it should look. maybe there is some reading on some sensor that they want to double check and we will see. the pressurisation _ check and we will see. the pressurisation issue - check and we will see. the pressurisation issue is - check and we will see. the pressurisation issue is what we are being told. the smoke we are seeing underneath, that's the oxygen. that's liquid oxygen. ridiculously low temperature, so you don't put oxygen in the tank like we breathe, you liquidise and take it down to extremely low temperatures and you denser fired, extremely low temperatures and you denserfired, so extremely low temperatures and you denser fired, so you extremely low temperatures and you denserfired, so you get extremely low temperatures and you denser fired, so you get as extremely low temperatures and you denserfired, so you get as much in the tank as possible, but because it's at a low temperature it is constantly boiling off and venting, so right up to the moment of launch, they are topping up the tanks. so what we are seeing is the oxygen just leaking out a bit, venting out, no problem at all.— ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, _ ten, nine, eight, seven,

done the job of getting the whole contraption off the ground. it will have expended its methane and oxygen. it will then be handing over to the ship which has its own propellants, its own engines, and we should see the ship at the top via its engines before it detaches. it has a series of events that go around the engines, we are starting to see the main engines on the booster start to come down. there, you see the engines start to fire up on the ship. the booster has detached and is pushing itself away. the booster is now trying to come back towards the launch complex above boca chica in texas to try to do a mock landing. it is going to come under control and just hover above the ocean and then flopped. i have to say, so far, stupendous. this is extraordinary. there are so much going on in the world at the moment, but this next frontier and the things that they are doing, and the things that they are doing, and the way that they are getting off the way that they are getting off the ground, it is truly extraordinary.- the ground, it is truly extraordinary. the ground, it is truly extraordina . , ., extraordinary. yes, ok, so we have 'ust seen extraordinary. yes, ok, so we

the ship light is ending, it carries on. the booster is then supposed to come back, eventually, it will land on the land all the sea. that is economic part of it. something is not gone quite right as it boosted back towards the texan coast, it has let go, 0k, fine. 0n the way up, the booster was perfect. if you go back to april, they had engines out from the word go, all 33 engines, this time, looked perfect all the way up. we had the telemetry of the bottom left—hand corner of the screen showing all of those engines were lit. clearly, they learned the lessons from last time, they have made that progress. you test early, you break it, you learn. space x have done that, they have gone away and improved the reliability of the raptor engines on the bottom of that booster, and they have come back and nailed it. now, they will obviously have to go away and work out why the booster suddenly exploded, it was boosting back towards the texan coast, but, for the moment, who cares? the ship, again, it separated, it seemed perfectly, from that booster. and it has pushed on. it will push on for another hour to get itself around the world. it is going to go out across the atlantic, across africa, across the atlantic, across africa, across asia, towards hawaii. then, it will start to come back in through the atmosphere and it will belly flop. if it survives re—entry it will get pretty hot as it comes in. some protective tiles. the space shuttle used to protect it. it has those kinds of thermal tiles as they call them. we will see if that manages to get down. so far, this is

musk believes that if he can start getting hundred and 50—200 tonnes off of the surface of the earth into earth orbit, then he has a chance of living up to this long held dream that he has of taking people and equipment to mars to set “p people and equipment to mars to set up some kind of human settlement. but, more short—term than that, you will probably know that he has broadband internet constellations in the sky. most of the satellites in the sky. most of the satellites in the sky. most of the satellites in the sky are his, they are delivering internet connections around the globe. in order to build out that system, he needs a bigger rocket than he has at the moment. his best lift, in his current rocket, the vulcan nine, is about 17 metric tonnes. hundred tonnes, hundred and 50 tonnes, you think about how many satellites you cannot launch if you do that. have spoken about the james webb telescope. —— how many satellites you can launch if you do that. the james webb telescope has a 6.5 metre mirror, that is what makes it special. that gives you the resolution to see things deep in the universe. when they launched it, they had to fold up the mirror because they did not have a big enough rocket. this has a nine metre ferry, you could put the whole mirror unfolded in this rocket. so, it opens up all sorts of things. that is what i mean about it being revolutionary. if it is truly reusable, if they can make both parts come back, reuse them, fill them up with fuel and reuse it, a bit like a 767, a380, whatever, then it transforms the economics of space. it is not only the cost but the volume, the mass. you can start doing things that we have never been able to do before in space. it is a big thing. able to do before in space. it is a bii thini. ., ., ~ able to do

been reporting today about the way that he is running twitter. when it comes to space and the money invested in space and the money invested in space and the contract he carries for the government, he is an immensely important figure in this. usually important. nasa took the decision when they retired the space shuttles in 2011 that they needed to change their approach, no longer could the government basically lead the design of space vehicles, own them, and operate them. it was becoming so expensive. elon musk can have a crash and a beam and a bang every so oxen can see only has to answer to his investors and bank manager, whereas government agencies, space agencies, they have government politicians on their backs, taxpayers asking how they're spending their money. they are very risk averse, understandably risk averse. he can afford to take more risks. nasa knew that they had to change their approach, so they went this contracting out model will stop the space shuttles, they owned and operated them. now, if they want to get their arsenals in the space, they ring up elon musk and say: i have four astronauts, can you get is up have four astronauts, can you get is up there?

has upended the launch market. everybody else is trying to catch up. just last week, we saw europe, which is in a dreadful mess over it's ability to get spacecraft and satellites into orbit, it does not have an operational rocket at the moment, trying to go down this route that nasser is going to come up where they essentially contract out. the companies have to compete for that. it is a fixed price. it is all change. it was initiated by nasa. spacex probably would not be here if it were not for the early contracts that they got from nasa. the first four launches with a smaller rocket all failed, they were on the verge of going bust. elon musk admits this. there you go, times are changing. this. there you go, times are changing-— this. there you go, times are chaniini. , a , ., this.

terra firma and to the pressing events in the middle east. and hundreds of people have been leaving gaza city's al—shifa hospital on foot, with doctors saying israeli forces had issued by loudspeaker an order to evacuate. the israeli military has denied this. it said it had agreed to expand and assist an evacuation, following a request by the hospital's director. we've just had these pictures in from central gaza. newsagency afp says they show palestinians evacuated from al—shifa hospital, heading south. that is by foot on the roads. tanks are very close by. we don't know how far from the hospital this video was recorded. the israeli military says hamas has a command centre in tunnels below al—shifa , something hamas denies. as well as patients and medical staff, large numbers of displaced people are sheltering in the hospital. 0ur middle east correspondent, tom bateman, has more from jerusalem. garzo's biggest hospital, our sheath. a report from the scene said an evacuation

americans do not want israeli boots on the ground in the long term. there may have to be a transitional period where the security is provided for gaza, that is something that we have to look at. when

facilities early on in the war had become designated shelters for palestinians. they are not reinforced buildings but schools, they were the designated shelters, they were the designated shelters, they were the designated shelters, they were supposed to be d conflicted. the civilians were inside. in the past few weeks, as the un has had to focus its operations on the south of the gaza strip because the north has become the operational focus of the fighting, and is effectively being split from the south, the un had to abandon, formally, its operations in the north of the strip. it said it was not formally able to offer any services to the tens of thousands of people sheltering in schools. this is one of those, it has had people sheltering in it and, what is what is, as you say, we see images that are still being verified by the bbc that appeared to show many casualties in one of those schools in the refugee camp. now, we were in contact this morning with a doctor at the indonesian hospital which is very close by. he described in his words a heart attack by israeli forces in the area. they had had many bodies coming in, so it seems that if this is the same event, then there are

why would it do that? eventually, this vehicle, hundred and 20— hundred and 40 kilometres above the earth, the velocity it would have reached would have taken it over africa, and so, if something was

not come down on land over africa. all rockets have these destruct systems. test early, break it, learn. iirriihieit test early, break it, learn. what will they take — test early, break it, learn.

being mostly light rain or drizzle now and again. temperature wise we are sitting at around 12 degrees typically but there might be a colder, stronger winds picking up in northern ireland around some of the western coasts of the uk and it will be a northerly wind, so that will start to drop the temperatures as we head into tuesday but after that we get the atlantic winds coming in, so some stronger westerly winds by wednesday coming around the top of this area of high pressure and after monday there might not be a great deal of rain over the week ahead and most of it in the far
