So it resulted in this space race at the time that was i think. It was motivated by that basically competition return american astronauts to the moon establish a Permanent Base there and develop the technologies to take american astronauts to mars and beyond. Nasas new plan return to the moon by 2024 hoping that naming its mission after apollo is twin sister artemis will be the key to success apollo had an infinite budget and skeptics wonder if artemis is limited by both time and money and when nasa was really pushing during apollo era they were getting Something Like 4 percent of the National Budget now its about point 4 percent of the National Budget and it really depends on what the political will is to fund the agency buzz aldrin the 2nd man on the moon says the u. S. Cant. Do this alone this is not just the action just us we have an ally which of nations that need to venture out a view echoed by space law experts we need to express basis of human species not as americans and chinese and russians and indians you know we are humans well in this together thank you 50 years on the footprints left by 12 men are a challenge as one of them put it to return to the moon with peace and hope for all mankind rosalynn jordan aljazeera washington dr david helms is a former nasa astronaut joining us live by skype from Houston Texas great to have you on the program dr helen myers now for those of us are probably will never make it to space to mark this occasion could you describe possibly one of the a moment that left the biggest impression on you sometime during our 500 some 1500 hours in space. I think. Thank you for asking me to to talk with you tonight this is indeed a spacious occasion something that is a remarkable achievement to worst to look back on i think that one of the things thats left with every astronaut that goes into space is this wonderful view of the earth the beauty of fertility of earth from space that we see and ultimately i think is really as we look back later earth its what can we do to keep this planet is our home and for now is our own way home what can we do to keep it safe what can we do to preserve it i think those are the types of thoughts that go through all the astronauts that go into space. From that there were many from 199970 2 there about 6 missions to the surface of the moon those top why do you think they ended and what do you think of this new initiative to started again with artemis well the. I think the public. Somewhat lost interest in the moon landing. There was a huge effort in the 1960 s. To achieve a huge push it was an Incredible Team effort almost a half a 1000000 americans and other people around the world were were involved in getting a man on the moon and if you think about it for men 961 when we 1st landed on the 1969 was oh wait years we were struggling just to get into space and 8 years later we were on the moon and so the novelty of having a man human being a citizen of this world set foot on them on a another celestial object was. You know lots of novelty associated with it but after 6 missions i think. Now will be somewhat more wore off and from a space standpoint i think we were working on it further options were working and going to them to mars and at the end of the Apollo Program i think we all thought that within the space of maybe 10 or 15 years we would be on mars or fruit not only because of political will and partially because of financial considerations that you have left the Space Program yourself a doctor but. What do you make of now people your average person being able to buy tickets to go to space to visit mars that sets now is being touted in the future. I think thats kind of a tall order i think that the commercialization of space and open space tourist go for short flights into orbital or sub orbital. Flights is a reality. Im somewhat skeptical of so many people to mars particularly on a one way trips but you know that is a huge endeavor and i think it is. Some of the commentators were discussing earlier that this is to be an. International effort i dont think that the Financial Resources of one country or the finance of a political will of one country is going to be enough to get us to mars i think this is going to have to be an International Effort and i see in that International Effort. More cooperation and a real chance for peace and understanding between cultures all right up to david how much well have to leave it there our former nasa astronaut great to speak to you thank you thank you very much and still ahead on aljazeera the worlds best female cyclist challenge Tour De France organizers to give them their version of the race.

The celebrations over all the arms of the streets of france where there is a large Algerian Community these are pictures of those celebrations from paris where fans are celebrating their sides 2nd title since 1000 light. Meanwhile the senegalese players were left heartbroken as they missed out again on their 1st chance to secure the crown. Talk as more from a fan so than in senegals capital dhaka this wasnt the game that the city police fans want to see theres been cheers disappoint so much was at stake so many people feel that they would bring back the good within minutes of the game store in a culture is that the story told and despite all the exuberant celebration that was in place. Minute by minute cheering during side by halftime many of the fans here were commenting on the game saying that their team is an underperforming you know they came along to moaning you but they were worried because our team is one goal down told this the next Clear Thinking but it will come. During the 2nd half of the game senegal were on the fence. Many big pieces and while many have been critical of the refereeing everybody agrees that he would see the coach was. A player in 2002 when senegal missed a penalty for missing the cup did a fantastic job with this and so many here hope that he will continue to manage to set a goal to want. To put it but obviously we have to keep pushing build basically keep working stay united let lucy say do his job if we keep pushing then we can when. Might the disappointing results this for many here has been a fantastic african cup of nations for the 1st time in the clubs history in the finals but most of the managers of algeria and senegal were not foreign or western coaches but ones that came from alford i was a fully african events and so many here hope that in cameroon senegal will be able to make again come to the final and perhaps finally breathe a copout.

S. Says its developing a Multinational Task force to increase surveillance and security in the regions waters on thursday President Donald Trump said American Forces shot down an iranian drawn meanwhile an iranian oil tank of remains impounded in gibraltar a court there has now extended its detention for another 30 days we begin our coverage with this report from Patty Culhane in washington. This british tanker and presumably its crew is now in iranian custody as announced on state t. V. A British Oil Tanker called stana imperio was stopped while passing through the strait of hormuz because of failing to observe International Maritime regulations at the request of ports and Navigation Authority of our most gun province the tanker was guided to the coast after being stopped and was handed over to the ports and Navigation Authority iran had 2 tankers one british lacked the other liberia and we will respond in a way that is considered robust and we are absolutely clear that if the situation is not resolved quickly it will be serious cause iran later announced the liberian tanker had been warned and release news of the tankers being seized in iran broke shortly before u. S. President donald trump left the white house for his new Jersey Country Club his reaction was muted there will be working with the u. K. Though i have a new prime ministers are which is a good thing and well be working with the u. K. But we have no written agreement but i think we have an agreement which is longstanding that was in contrast to his remarks just a few hours earlier where he showed his usual bravado we hope and thats a couldnt do anything for wish they do they will pay a price like nobodys at the better place. This all comes as the 2 countries dispute in earlier incident in the strait of hormuz where the president insists the m. P. V. Ship the u. S. S. Boxer was threatened by an iranian drone so they took it down in response iran released this drone video that it says proves their drone conducted surveillance and returned to base and now news of the tankers reportedly taken in iran likely a response to the british detaining an iranian tanker weeks earlier another clear escalation but the u. S. Secretary of state is signaling a way out to get me and the president trying to make a decision about how to proceed hes made clear it appeared to conduct negotiations with no preconditions he waives continue to say well the talk but only if and only if the United States. Theres something we need them to come to the right with everything changes iran says it will talk if you a sanctions are lifted 1st so for now the standoff continues. Aljazeera Washington Well a british flags tank has operate a stain of bokes as the vessels no longer under the Cruise Control and come to be contacted has been transferred to an avanti in port as the explains while this seizure apparently took place earlier on friday and there were a few events that led to the reign of revolutionary guards seizing this british vessel 1st the local officials in hormones gone province south of the country said that this vessel heads came in contact with a small fishing boat and that is when they tried to contact it and a few attempts were made but no response was received by the iranians and thats when the officials called the revolutionary guards to the scene and thats when the revolutionary guard said that the vessel was in a number of violations 1st that it was going in the wrong maritime direction 2nd that it had turned off all its tracking in g. P. S. Devices and 3rd it was not responding to any of the warnings that was being issued that is when they decided to seize the tanker and it is now sitting in the port city of bam there are 23 crewmembers on board the laws brother who is professor of law at Fordham University in new york and he says that the escalation is troubling. I think we have to go back to the prior statements by the Iranian Foreign minister and other officials which are very clear that iran would seize british tankers or british ships if the tanker grey swan were not released from seizure and your brault or. If this were a civil arrest for a maritime tort the collision between the alleged collision between the tanker and a fishing boat perhaps a normal arrest by a court would be proper but this was not an arrest by a court it was a premeditated act by the Iranian Revolutionary guard corps its not a judicial proceeding as the proceedings and roll to were and in the commercial sense a small collision like this presumably from the information that ive just heard would result in either an exchange between the ship owners representatives or their insurers and a commercial document a letter of undertaking a promise to pay certain amount of damages would be tendered instead of the rest of the ship this is very troubling in light of the 9 or 10 incidents since the middle of more a may and each one continues to escalate out of out of hand each response being worse and more more dramatic than the prior.
