In a Historic Mission a nasa spacecraft has briefly landed on an asteroid over 320000000 kilometers from. The osiris rex spacecraft touched down for a few seconds on the surface of the asteroid named benu to collect rock and dust samples you successful osiris rex will return with the samples to earth in 2023 scientists hope the mission helps them learn more about how planets formed and how life began lets get more on this joining me from washington is Keith Colleen is editor of the space news web site nasa watch dot com keith good to have you on the program the spacecraft has finally touched down on the asteroid 4 years after it was launched was this a successful Sample Collection it would seem that it was perfectly the spacecraft ki moon your this is the asteroid games graded touched made a little worse to be here grab some simple been backed off and everybodys happy everybody was jumping up and down nothing seems to have gone wrong everything seems to go right ok so whats the next set of challenges that we expect for this mission. Well its going to still study the asteroid its circling it right now but at some point it will come back to her itll take 3 years to get here and as it approaches earth it will open up in a little capsule will come out of it that will land on earth in utah and inside of the samples of the asteroid and then the spacecraft will can continue off to another destination and so weve got now exactly pretty much a 3 year wait to see whats inside and thing what and side what kind of insights do you hope to gain from this and time mission. Well when the asteroid was visited because its small its close to earth and so forth and it sucked to be rather old and what they discovered was some surprising things its materials on there that youd only expect on a world with a river of water but this world is the size that this is a skyscraper this is how big the asteroid is so they found evidence of stuff that youd expect in a bigger world so that sort of suggests that this was part of something that was bigger but they also phone chemicals on there that you would expect to be there with the origin of life so they did not discover life but they discovered the components that might cause it to arise that was a surprise as well so this even you a world. Surprised a lot of people and you know that there are many other asteroids like this so if this one which was just sort of picked at random is like this many of them are like this or maybe theyre different. This astroid bando as a serious matter and it could become dangerous for yet right. Yes it orbits the sun very simple route to the earth and it can get close and theres a possibility that towards the end of the century it might come close so if it might hit you might want to know what its made out of and by studying it they discover that its actually a collection of pebbles and so its kind of nice to know that as opposed to something thats really solid and hard as if it did come and hit the earth something its you know solid is it can make a big crater cause a bad day for the world but something is very fluffy and easily eroded might just not cause a problem after all but we have to go visit it to find out exactly what its made up ok hope its not about day for the world keith cowing editor of a space news web site nasa watch dot com and washington thank you for joining us thank you for the insight pleasure.

Promise now 13000000 people across those countries who need humanitarian assistance including 2000000 people whove been forced to flee their home just in the last year or so and problems have a series of underlying causes poverty and Development Rapid population growth Climate Change which means that. You know its impossible to the sunshine times of people to make a living in traditional nomadic pastoral lifestyles who are in subsistence agriculture. And into that are coming extremist groups and these the extremist groups really. Forcing huge numbers of people to flee their homes or a baby to deal with the short term you have to deal with the long long term causes as well right Food Insecurity in this a hell region has increased massively at more than 500. 00 the same in mali for example what all the root causes of hunger in the region. Well its the same sorts of things really i mean people are hungry when they dont have incomes and when theyre very very poll the well produces more than enough for everybody to go to bed each night well nourished the problem is that in some places theyre all people who have the means to purchase the fate now they say he and region has not developed in the way many of the policies that well to have over there asta few generations and so theyre very reliant on forms of agriculture. And then subsistence agriculture which the very large growing populations are too many people to really rely on those forms of being in an era of Climate Change.
