A lot of Medvedev said oh please go out he couldn't get his arms up to do that to him and swing well he could probably could have tried to decide to leave 15 old another fuss of missed by Nidal that's trainer. Go lucky on that last point I think Rafa. Second 15 all fact converts that but at it all with a full hand it's long was the 1st. 30 I think Ross was arms with heavy. Traffic yet I was explaining the 1st serve percentage drop the. Forced Arizona's tough balls I am not used to having that video for stairs 45 in the do you want but that's got to be a match I for. $1530.00 points to the club one because of the noise from the crowd at that. Level. But it also took another minute it's kind of milked outlet for sure and he should. Just only go to for a 7 to play that as he sets for the US Open was on very effective those struggling and is back in 1530 this is the pet a fuss of an incident that the book because Medvedev Thanks a 1st slice back for hand seemed to miss its usually genius shot to add that don't over think a lot of trouble and really not stupid and skinny just a little bit the sheer volume of dial I would serve olling that's one really is that it is he the winner of the wide slot I was on set point in the 4th set decide to go for it. So 30 year old with an adult $54.00 will it be a 3rd championship point or another great track point for Daniel Medvedev and the dolls frailty on of resurfaces as the 1st finds the net 24000 people can be remarkably quiet when they want to be with attention is this high 2nd serve backhand return from Medvedev forehand from the DOL Medvedev hits he's back Continental's full had sure that all lands it but in this rally tele shots the 4 had the ball the I was almost the sense of this police around me on the Rush stadium because Danielle Medvedev there was a double breakdown at the 52 in the deciding set now has the opportunity to level things up with 5 games of the 76 British whatever most of the thinking was the right. Thing To Do Right away I think. Break Point down little like any serves into the net. This is. My foot after the point 450. 2nd So the doll back can return from Medvedev the full hand from the doll the Packham from that half of the doll full had full hand from Medvedev the telcos cross school never have full had very very sure the dolls full and kept alive but that the deaf with the law of how is it just a little bit old was the thought out boy and only so you would saw Michael I know the bubbles like that of should have made it go past what was it because it all showing a couple of balls or obsession of the cross for the cover that side of the ball but thank God the a better risk is now. 4 hours and 49 minutes we've now been playing here all 5 lines he finds a fuss back Hammer Time for Medvedev drop shot the ball was dead but if they will that was it said that the thank you the out of the pool because somebody said that Rob thank the was very bad but right that's right the batsman said you could bring us right the bread stall he said I drop shot looks so great when you make it so stupid was the but. So for the 3rd time championship point Rafael Nadal So when a full U.S. Open title. On to the full hand of Medvedev and there are a ton of thanks perhaps a ton to his back to the US Open champion for a. Constant support never been once in times when they tell you don't know where. It was well but you heard the shots at the end of the doll in the closing stages we put those chants for Roger Federer and many times before but that's all now the whole time the U.S. Open champion. 19 runs and singles titles the cycle that we thought was his in the middle of last week very very early to state it but he's done it he's done I put the finishing line again and it was. Absolutely spectacular it was absolutely thrilling and Jeff. Daniel Medvedev is my hero so I always won a lot of fans he has and I think the food when he gets back to New York next year absolutely phenomenal performance. Not theirs but the next generation youngster of respect to the price 3 I think it's fair to say that he is sharing how mentally tough it is on his 1st shots phenomenal he said germination is spectacular. And he showed that he's absolutely superstar athlete and how quick is this guy is one of the you have appointed Davis in its weight and played in the . Earliest stages it is a quick a slow go I did the same and it's right you can see he just moves officially such as move this big steps and gets around the court and that the last in the jump shot was absolutely perfect and he got to it from up from 6 but behind the baseline I mean this guy is unbelievable that way so yeah it's. Like you have to end the ball and I guess how is that bowling I mean he volley but I disagree I would go toward that before and posture in Korea and guys he said regarding count volley that is that is if we before the top 4 the guy that is the best volley I have a saying anybody and it's true he played a fantastic match regulations to him as well so 4 hours and 15 minutes and pull the record Rafael a doll which is the U.S. Open 756357 full $66.00 full G.G. . Wow It is 12 minutes past 2 in the morning in the U.K. In part it was Chris Clary from the New York Times he said Donal Medvedev maybe the poster slowly can guy I've seen in my life was wrestling down as his cost. He will leave the court who freshen up he'll speak to Harry we're told one signs or he'll wave to coolness of the all the rest sated with any T.V. Has left 5 sets in 5 hours grandson title number $191.00 behind Roger Federer a U.S. Open titles now 4 total career titles that stands at $84.00 and he's on an 11 match winning streak general Medvedev also decided to leave the cool it's in and freshen up and what really stood out for me about Daniel Medvedev Patton Jethro Bass Player one who's done a runner before the trophy and me for here is how cool calm and collected in defeat he looks very stoic as if to sort of sit there and go OK you know I try that's it but a man won and off we go just he's been combing his persona 5 through the course of these 5 hours well that's what we tell our kids it's what we tell our students as you go out there you try your hardest to leave it all out there and you have nothing to be ashamed of each child your absolute artist you do everything in to when you say I mean to you his character was phenomenal out there he took the crowd here and he actually gained fans and so he had nothing to be sorry about me we never thought he could play that well he showed us all how great he could play what a great player he's going to be in I'll tell you what he's going to be a force to reckon with and that's all he felt like he needed to do today man what it what a great player. He had some believable he was 36 in the world this time last year Donal Medvedev he has 50 wins for 29 he's still a 2 a leader but now rough and Ellis has crept up to 47 Medvedev was on a 12 match winning streak coming into this final he'd never been to the 2nd week of a Grand Slam and till they see this open when he made all the way to the final he he's won the prize in the bonus checks of the North American hardcore serious crime . For what he's accomplished which is absolutely astounding he spoke of how he's dedicated his life to this sport and it is paying off from Monday which is now here in the U.K. He's now the new world number 4 but Russell rightly says we see the name of the president has already been printed on stone to the board 2019 on a doll following on from you know that joke which last year Nadal the year before headlines for rough and on the conversation about The Greatest Of All Time will talk about that again Djokovic scored a few years left as has the dull Federer just one clear now 20 grand slam singles titles and we're very nearly ready for the presentation here in New York now is the author Ash Stadium everyone's had a couple of minutes to have a little bit of a break perhaps and just say what they have seen and it's a spectacular scene because it's night now in New York at the moment the 2 players benches are being lit up with spotlights.

As of Monday morning we know when you're in New York that you're definitely going to find some way to eat of the time of night you finish the 5th time the rest and all as one most school grand slam titles in scenes and now before we let Jeff and Pat loose into the night because just as he meant to pull the rest of us when it happens we have that right now final thoughts gentlemen on this finals weekend Andrea skewed abscessing we will call when you have 1st Grand Slam title best Grand Slam final against Reno is who is so desperate for that record and she is one away from equalling it and this evening he says and 5 hours not boy does he look exhausted he is now one away from Federal at 19 titles well Gigi I just have to think that everybody's been talking so much about the big 3 about Serena and Venus and the top players that we've watched for the last decade decade half maybe longer and see what is after that what are we ever going to see after that and here we got a really good glimpse with dress cue Medvedev tennis These are some phenomenal athletes great players it is just becoming more and more international and more exciting more characters and you just never know what you're going to get and then . What makes it so exciting to watch me knowledge in history and for life and I love the game but I think keeps sucking me back in every time I love it Pat He says it's been incredible it's come to an end and what a way for it to end oh yeah it was a phenomenal match as I say we were expecting expecting this sort of standard tennis from you know on the dollar versus jock of age better or that sort of beverage of that sort of stuff but yeah for Medvedev What a performance he put in and you know he was really absolutely nothing in it it's exciting to see the young players come through. And he you know he's the 1st one to really break through. And. Didn't even know her name before January I looked in the the tournament New Zealand and saw results which were the 1st one of this year and I went who's this girl and then she wins the U.S. Open or just the talent out there is just absolutely phenomenal and there's more players coming through but you know as we saw tonight it's you know the dollars is one of the 3 legends that are very very tough to knock off. You know the the greatest players for the greatest place to be the 3 greatest players that at one time they were of a scene and they aren't going anywhere and it takes one heck of a performance which we almost saw tonight so it's tennis is exciting what a great state the tennis is in at the moment how exciting and look forward to the more advanced account of course you started open not that far away and it's crazy but it's just it's just around the corner rough Nidal continues to have photos taken into the customary biting off the trophy he's done now a 19 grand slam trophies and final words then from tennis correspondent Russophone I want to complete this yeah it's been fantastic I really enjoyed watching Bianca and rescues performance right the way through the fortnight and the way Serena Williams played to get to the final and it was absorbing and. Matic in equal measure particularly the 2nd set of the final yesterday and we leave New York with in the men's competition another grand slam win for one of the big 3 but we know that doesn't tell the story at all yes to just it was amazing cha continues they won 51 of the last 59 grand slams between them going back to the French Open in 2005 but the way Daniel Medvedev played here surely does give hope to him and to Alex Ferrer fans to follow sits a pass and pound such an offer the other members of the top 10 that that maybe they can push the big 3 very close in 2020 I Russell had Jeff Davis produce a play enjoy your final evening in New York what a way for it to end 5 sets in 5 hours and referenda wins grandson title number 19 after an epic battle with a Russia that Daniel never ever moves up to for in the world or what a way to bring the U.S. Open coverage to an end for another year thank you very much for being with us up next a little later than usual up all night but now with the time at 239 the news on 5 Live this year Clarkson on digital B.B.C.

Dot co dot U.K. We'll open up the phone lines in a few minutes 1st though the biggest strike in British Airways history is now underway members of the British Airlines Pilots Association began a 2 day walkout at midnight as part of a pay dispute with the airline be a is urging passengers affected by the walkout not to go to the airport Well Simon Calder is the travel editor of The Independent He's been following the dispute and its effects and I sprayed him early and asked him why this strike had been called It's simply about money Doughton an old fashioned pay dispute the airline is offering pilots pay increase they say is worth 11.5 percent every 3 years they say that the deal is already been accepted by members of the Unite union and the G.M. Be representing mostly cabin crew and ground staff respectively That means 9 out of 10 of be a staff have accepted a deal that the airline calls fair Balbir the British Airline Pilots Association doesn't think it's good enough at all they want more cash and that would work out at $22.00 pounds on average per week pilot now for an awful lot of people extra 20 pounds a week would be really quite a large thing but. British Airways says that senior captain is already on $3200.00 pounds a week so it's not going to notice he or she is not going to notice that much the union says Well some people might be earning highest high figures but could get pilots are on only 27000 pounds and so the 2 sides are. A long way apart even though you have got a group of very well paid relatively speaking compared with others in the travel industry. The union representing them and you've got an airline is making very significant profits so caught in the middle of this furious for how of course is about term quarter of a 1000000 passengers and a lot of money because even though bridges Airways has been making a lot of money it's also stands to lose a lot of money for every single day of this drug Yes So we're just talking here about the 1st 2 days of strikes another one is has already been announced for the 27th of September maybe it will come on later but for these 2 days well the cancellations actually began on Sunday evening I make the 1st strike cancellation was a domestic flight from CAN'T WAIT TO jersey followed by similar ones to Edinburgh and Glasgow then that moved on to overseas departures to Heathrow from places like Abu Dabi to bide Nairobi and then a whole wave of flights Normally that would be setting off from North America round about 11 or 12 U.K. Time on one Sunday night including all 8 services from New York J.F.K. All the fronts from Boston Toronto 2 out of 3 from Los Angeles one out of 3 from Miami now the funny thing about these flights is that pilots are unable to strike when they're away from base at Heathrow or Gatwick So those flights could all have operated but it seems that there is simply such a shortage of space for parking aircraft Heathrow and Gatwick that they've had to cancel quite a lot so you've got disruption happening even before the strike starts effectively the whole flying program with a handful of exceptions is is rubbed out on the. Monday and Tuesday some odd ones going on for it says a flight to Tokyo one nadir and one coming back from there as well on Monday and the Sydney Singapore Heathrow flight on Tuesday is also running and if you other odds and ends but nothing significant compared with the 700 or so frightened being canceled and I calculate come back to your question be able to lose between 35 and 40000000 pounds per day in lost revenue but it then has significant costs finding hotels for passengers who journeys been delayed by a few days parking a whole load of $74.00 seventh's in various airports around the world isn't actually going to be very cheap and of course on top of that there's the unquantifiable loss of goodwill and furthermore the bookings that are going to other airlines easy Jet Virgin Atlantic and so on rather the behave because passengers think more can take a risk with this important holiday a family trip business mission I'm going to book with someone else who I don't think will go on strike and if you do to fly be what what rights do you have. Well luckily the rules are very clear. And it's basically 3 options this is under the European air passenger rights rules which BE A is obliged to observe now you can trivially get a full refund because. If your flight isn't going then you not only get the money back for that but you could get the money back for the return leg even if that's going in normally Now if you're a passenger whose plans have changed or you've perhaps found a cheaper alternative in the meantime that could be the right thing to do but I don't know if it's going to work for many people. Then they can book on a different date and British Airways very keen to push the idea of staying on be a little bit actually coming back on a different. Day and if you were going only somewhere lovely light it host and ball and be a said flights are coming back have another couple of days at our expense I think I'd be tempted for that but by that. But the vast majority of people are going to want to be rebooked on the same time or as close to it as possible on a different airline and that has been done in a lot of cases be a has been rebooking with dozens of different airlines starting with easy ones like its partners Iberia half Spain and American Airlines and cat Aria ways which owns quite a lot of B.A. So they've done a fair amount of that but then everybody down at Gatwick mostly he's on a short haul flight there will be an equivalent flight on easy Jet and that would be the obvious one for people to go to but be a has declined to buy seats on easy Jet and the Civil Aviation Authority is getting increasingly interested in why B.A. Says it can't do. It says its reservation systems aren't compatible whereas that's not actually an allowable excuse B. A is supposed to buy the cheapest but it the most suitable alternative right there she's leaving as close to the original time as possible as a child will guru Simon Calder there so let's turn to our astronomy guru for tonight I don't see Joe Dunkley use an astrophysicist at Princeton University in New Jersey author of our universe and astronomers guide here for our astronomy phone in if you like to join in the conversation if you've got any questions for and trust me from memory she can answer them or 808-590-9693 that's the number to call you can segues her own 85058 or e-mail awful night at B.B.C. Doc U.K. So Dr Dunkley Welcome back thanks for having me so I think we should really start with the big news of the weekend which is this missing Indian Space Agency probe where did they go wrong well I think it was that this is just one of those unfortunate things that you know space space space is really hard it's really you know it's it's really hard to successfully you know Lawrence missions land missions and it's kind of to me it's a reminder of how hard space travel isn't for space exploration as so it's you know but it's still a great you know and every day people should still be trying to do this safe they'd succeeded not only would India have been the 4th nation I think to have landed a spacecraft on the moon but arguably it would have been the perhaps most exciting because they were exploring or not far from obviously apart from Apollo. 11 but it would there would have been explore its power. The mood that nobody else to travel to that's right yes so you say they meet I mean this incredible thing about you know the meanest and so unexplored anyway right they've been just this number of visits both you know crude people on board and then there's it's from explorers and there's some of it so much that we haven't explored. You know this this. You know we see the moon up and I say we say it's you know a space that way that shows itself to us and there's a there's a there's there's so much of it that we haven't been to and so. Yeah I wish I would have worked for you know fix we have to try again and it would inspire other nations as well I don't know if you saw this you know Vance been in space of the Indian space agency coming back imagine what a huge disappointment would have been for the inside a nation that the whole of the sub continent if it had landed have would have probably changed the game some more thought That's right yeah I think I think this you know we're saying years gone past it was the U.S. And and Russia and and now we're seeing also you know many more countries coming into the space game and I think I think going forward we're going to see a space exploration happening from these multiple nations working together also with with private companies and yes I think that inspires a nation when you do this and we all kind of saw this with our with the 50th anniversary of the American mainland and. Seem a success is a real inspiration but I do think that you know. Making days and even if they're not all successes I think will still be inspiring the nation so I hope that they'll be you know space enthusiasts and an astronomy enthusiast in India who who feel extra excited by this over NASA has said that it will return to the moon in the next couple of years we would necessarily have to go where the Indian space agency was going to the south pole you know I think. You know different there are just different interesting codes different places right so. There is an interest in exploring different parts of the main of course and then there's also the home technological endeavor of trying to say how well you can actually land. A spacecraft on the main if you are for example then trying to go to Mars so you know this is one of the future that you know you can I think you go into the bay and as far as the range for exploring a mono or going to the main for saying how well you can day for going even further so I think I you know I'm not sure what the exact. If the goals of the U.S. You know future U.S. Main mission of been completely determined spec there are these different kind of goals of a scientific fact storing the moon or are they kind of for technologically showing how well we can actually then launch further missions with all due respect she dotes a donkey let's put all the philosophical questions to one side because we've got some real nuts and bolts questions here Charlie once you know what's the what's the point to further space exploration that's more like a Johnny will them yeah I get that so. Here I think I think that one of the things is to learn and. OK So there's one I think that exciting thing one can do with space exploration in our own solar system is send Unkrich missions out just for example the moons of Jupiter and Saturn and they're these really exciting places these kind of I.C. Mains that could harbor life and one of our huge questions as humans I think is is there life elsewhere and say the opportunity to kind of to go in to explore and try and find out if there's even life in our own solar system I think that's just genuinely exciting for humans. And so that's that that wouldn't be a place we'd send people to it's a place that we'd sand you know probes to spacecraft because Charlie says look it's really exist extremely expensive most places are way too far for humans to sensibly go to so Figgs vis worlds instead of attempting to contaminate and ruin any other worlds sure lose weight food Well yeah I think those 2 if you size that I absolutely think that you know some of the biggest challenges that we're facing right now of making sure we have the world here to live on one thing I will say is you know at my myself I'm an astronomer where my science mostly comes from just looking out into space rather than going out into space and up that's absolutely right that most of the stuff that's out there. We can't get we can only go and look at but it turns out that even to go and look at the stuff you often want to get out of Earth's atmosphere. And go somewhere out and a little bit out into space and actually have the ability to have astronauts that can go and kind of fix telescopes go in you know. Help make sure that we can kind of have have science observatories out there. That is enabling us to look look much much further that we can ever go to but here I do think this this this issue of you know is it worth our time because we have these more pressing more pressing questions. I kind of see the scientific questions that we are asking our answer as you know the enrichment side of human life and of course we have to compliment that with you know the practical side of trying to make sure our planet has healthy to live on to be fair though to Dunkley Charlie bold you what we call a your. Family is my understand that having the Ashes but it's all drawn thrown under on one from R J H In Eden field this is simply and this is so easy Surely what is gravity. Well you know what that sounds easy but it's not the easy but you know the because it easy out there is this thing that the end if everything feels close to another object that has some kind of mass that way something. You know and it's just does seem to be the case that anything that has. That does weigh something that has its own mass Holst other things towards it and this isn't Newton figured this out hundreds of years ago Einstein kind of refined it. But we still don't I think completely No we don't completely understand it but we you know. It's we see the effects of it all throughout space you know in a saying that the more massive something is the more whole something towards it and we now we now kind of also have a sense of it. This is through our Bond star you know a great great scientist that. Effects base itself gravity effects they said Self So if you put something that Scott mass in space it . Kind of distorts and bends that space little bit like a. Big bowling ball on a rep a sheet it will bend space and then add the objects. Towards those things heavy things and swirl around them orbiting around them. Because of the fact that they've distorted space so here we have but we think we know something of gravity but we don't know we don't know everything all that I would say but every schoolboy things they know something about gravity they say you know what goes up must come down oh it's cold out let's go oh no I know the school girls know much more than school boys. They know it's more complicated than signal you know apple tree fall on your head I think why we should consider girls schools but me sitting here now would I be where you are. As an astrophysicist Princeton University in New Jersey where you thought I was excluding school goes from there. Sure. Far you've no 9693 Thankfully we have Dr Joe Dunkley with us from Princeton University. Any questions you've got about space the stars and the other worlds. The news. You play nearly. Anyone at this.
