Conference on friday. this is our future and we have to fight for our futures. inside the conference today, a mood of quiet formality, as negotiators brought this meeting to a close. whats been discussed though could hardly be more urgent. the fires, the floods, the melting of the ice and the rising of the sea... the overall message from leaders here is one of cautious optimism, that it will be possible to reach a decisive climate agreement in glasgow, but that it wont be easy. glasgow is the st...

Recently nasas messenger mission. and this one, bepicolombo, is designed to answer a lot of the questions raised by that messenger mission. so we mentioned in the introduction there the spacecraft is shooting past mercury. it is not actually landing on the planet, is it? what are we watching for in the coming hours? well, the main thing that this flyby is supposed to accomplish is to alter the orbit, alter the trajectory of the spacecraft, as it goes around the sun. they would love to be able to...

From the meeting in milan, heres our science correspondent victoria gill. as representatives drift away from this closing pre—cop meeting in milan, i think theres a sense of cautious optimism, that there is hope that we can really tackle climate change and get to an agreement at that crucial un climate conference in glasgow in just a months time. but also that there is a lot of work still to be done. so, in his closing press conference, the us climate envoy, john kerry, said he didnt want to s...

Flyby. the spacecraft will flyby the planet at high speeds, taking photographs and sending them back to earth. it is moving too fast to go into orbit but will begin more detailed observations in four years time. earlier, i spoke to the planetary scientist emily locked awhile up. she is following this mission closely and told me what she wants to achieve. . , and told me what she wants to achieve. ., , ., , , achieve. there has only been two previous _ achieve. there has only been two previous mi...

What they will do to limit emissions, and reach that climate agreement in glasgow. there are two major issues that have really stood out in this gathering, and that�*s that 1.5 celsius threshold. this is the critical number that scientists have said beyond which we get to the much more dangerous impacts of climate change, and the more vulnerable nations really want us to stay on a trajectory to keep that target within reach. but also finance. developed nations, the richest nations that are res...

Measures and emergency management to address the potential wave we might be getting in the future so our hearts go to these individuals risking their lives to come to pursue the american dream. however, its not sustainable and border communities are seeing the impact economically and financially and humanitarian perspective, it is difficult. having said that, weve had an immigration crisis for beckett. the truth is, after every president we have had a humanitarian crisis for several decades and ...

That it will be possible to reach a decisive climate agreement in glasgow, but that it wont be easy. glasgow is the starting point. people who are here in milan representing some of the most vulnerable and small island nations are really concerned that we are still a long way from the trajectory of keeping global temperature increase this century to within this key threshold of 1.5 celsius. we are already in a 1.1 world. we are facing increasing frequency and severity of storms and flooding. a 1...

The overall message from leaders here is one of cautious optimism, that it will be possible to reach a decisive climate agreement in glasgow, but that it wont be easy. glasgow is the starting point. people who are here in milan representing some of the most vulnerable and small island nations are really concerned that we are still a long way from the trajectory of keeping global temperature increase this century to within this key threshold of 1.5 celsius. we are already in a 1.1 world. we are f...

Around the sun. i would love to be able to enter orbit because thatis be able to enter orbit because that is the goal of the mission, to orbit for a couple of years and have a of data, but its difficult to enter orbit at mercury because it is small and the gargantuan gravity of the sun is close by so they will have to fly past a total of five times before finally entering orbit in 2025 to really, all they really want to really, all they really want to hear is that the craft is safe and its traje...
