Welcome to BBC World News Today, I'm Karin Giannone in London. | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton slugged it out for 90 minutes. | :00:08. | :00:14. | |
No knock-out blow, but who came out on top? | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
Scientists in the United States say the world's first baby has been born | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
using a new "three person" fertility technique. | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
For the first time, the International Criminal Court has | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
passed a sentence for cultural destruction. | :00:31. | :00:31. | |
The crimes were committed in Mali by a jihadi. | :00:32. | :00:36. | |
Nasa finds more evidence of water on one of Jupiter's moons. | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
Reaction has been coming in thick and fast since the to US | :00:40. | :00:59. | |
presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump | :01:00. | :01:01. | |
faced each other in their first televised debate. | :01:02. | :01:03. | |
Campaign teams for both have praised the performances | :01:04. | :01:05. | |
But Donald Trump, despite initially saying the moderator | :01:06. | :01:11. | |
Lester Holt had done a good job, is now saying Holt was tougher | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
Trump has also complained about his microphone crackling | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
In response, Hillary Clinton had this to say: | :01:18. | :01:30. | |
Anybody who blames it on the microphone is not having a good | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
night. In diplomacy, they call | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
this a grin and grab. In last night's presidential debate, | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
it quickly gave way to grimaces, as both | :01:43. | :01:53. | |
candidates exchanged blows. Donald Trump started attacking | :01:54. | :01:54. | |
Hillary Clinton for initially backing | :01:55. | :01:56. | |
the Pacific Trade Deal The gold standard of trade, | :01:57. | :01:58. | |
you said it was the finest And then you heard what I | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
said about it and all Well, Donald, I know | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
you live in your reality, But then it was Donald Trump's | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
to be put under the cosh. First over his refusal to hand | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
over his tax returns, something that | :02:16. | :02:17. | |
all candidates have done Maybe he doesn't want the American | :02:18. | :02:19. | |
people, all of you watching tonight, to know that he's paid | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
nothing in federal taxes, because the only years that anybody's ever | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
seen were a couple of years when he asked to turn them over to state | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
authorities when he was trying to get a casino licence and they showed | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
he didn't pay any But how smart, when | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
everybody else has His business acumen | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
is a cornerstone of his appeal, not questions. He then came under attack | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
over his attitude towards women, a key demographic in this | :02:47. | :02:52. | |
election where he is trailing badly. But this is a man who has called | :02:53. | :02:58. | |
women pigs, slobs and dogs. She spoke about a beauty pageant | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
contestant who Mr Trump had called Miss Housekeeping, | :03:03. | :03:04. | |
because she was Latino. Donald, she has | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
a name. Her name is Alicia | :03:11. | :03:12. | |
and she has become a US citizen and you can bet that | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
she's going to vote this November. But Donald Trump then sought | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
to make it about character. I said she doesn't have the stamina | :03:20. | :03:26. | |
and I don't believe To be president of this | :03:27. | :03:36. | |
country, you need Well, as soon as he travels | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
to 112 countries and negotiates a peace deal, a | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
ceasefire, a release of dissidents, an opening of new opportunities | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
in nations around the world or even spends 11 hours testifying in front | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
of a congressional committee, you Hillary has experience, | :03:51. | :03:52. | |
but it's bad experience. We have made so many bad | :03:53. | :04:05. | |
deals during the last... So she's got experience, | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
but it is bad, bad Donald Trump is positioning | :04:09. | :04:10. | |
himself as the political outsider and that resonates | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
with many disillusioned Americans. By the end of the debate, | :04:15. | :04:16. | |
it was Donald Trump's stamina that | :04:17. | :04:19. | |
seemed to be flagging. Here, both sides are claiming | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
victory, as you would expect, and Donald Trump has come | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
in to do his own spinning. He had one question to answer | :04:27. | :04:28. | |
in this debate: Did he have the temperament to be | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
the next commander-in-chief, Mr Trump, are you satisfied | :04:32. | :04:33. | |
with how it went? Several news organisations carried | :04:34. | :04:49. | |
out their own polls, A joint CNN/ORC survey | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
gave Mrs Clinton 62% But the organisations | :04:53. | :04:59. | |
acknowledge that more Democrats The broadcaster CNBC | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
asked people to cast The outcome was 61 to 39 | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
in favour of Mr Trump, although there's no way of knowing | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
the background of any But the Public Policy Polling | :05:14. | :05:15. | |
Organisation carried out its own survey of what it claims | :05:16. | :05:22. | |
is a balanced group of more than a thousand | :05:23. | :05:25. | |
registered US voters. They called it 51 to 40 for Clinton, | :05:26. | :05:27. | |
with 9% of people undecided. Well, Pennsylvania is a key swing | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
state for both candidates. To get an idea of the reaction | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
from voters there, our correspondent Rajini Vaidyanathan | :05:36. | :05:37. | |
is in Philadelphia. What is the verdict? Well, I've | :05:38. | :05:52. | |
spent the morning here at Philadelphia's Reading terminal | :05:53. | :05:54. | |
market and people are just finishing their lunch, but throughout the | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
course of the morning, people are Pindar jesting and discussing last | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
night's debate and as you say, Pennsylvania is a key state in this | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
election and it is a key battle ground and where both Clinton and | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
Trump both need to win if they want the keys to the White House. So what | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
the voters see a thing? I'm joined by Jim and Dorothy. Let us begin | :06:16. | :06:24. | |
with you, Jim. What did you think? I was disappointed to some degree, I | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
thought the moderator conducted himself like a rookie. I say that | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
for two reasons, one is that he always started the questioning with | :06:34. | :06:40. | |
the same candidate, except for one time and I think that's gave an | :06:41. | :06:46. | |
advantage to that candidate. Do you mean Clinton? Yes, and she started | :06:47. | :06:55. | |
the canisters, except on the second to last question I gave her an | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
advantage of getting her ideas out in the brains of the audience and | :07:01. | :07:07. | |
the people. And then Mr Trump had to say things that would try get those | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
ideas away from them. You support and all Trump? Yes. How would you | :07:14. | :07:20. | |
assess his overall performance? I think they both did OK. I don't | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
think either of them are really gained any votes lost any. I think | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
they're both did pretty well. Dorothy, you are supporting Clinton. | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
How do Joe candidate do? I think she did well and her experience showed. | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
She knows how these things work and knows how to make the best advantage | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
of the situation she was in. I think she did fine. I don't think either | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
one would have gained or lost and supporters. A debate is difficult | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
for someone to change someone's mind, because it is so difficult a | :07:55. | :08:00. | |
situation for them to be in. How much of this is now box office a | :08:01. | :08:04. | |
reality television and how much is really about important political | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
issues? I think a lot of it is just reality television. Trying to get | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
the attention of voters, applying their base instinct and I don't | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
think... I so by Hillary, and I don't think Donald Trump as many | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
real ideas or his policies are fully formed. Clinton has a lot more | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
experience in that areas and I think it is a matter of personality, at | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
one point or another, people are going to gravitate to the | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
personality they like best, for better or worse. General, finally, | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
what do you think Donald Trump needs to do before the next debate? He | :08:42. | :08:49. | |
needs to stick to his solutions for the problems in America. He has that | :08:50. | :08:55. | |
figured out pretty well. He doesn't think like a politician or talk like | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
one but I do know how to tell them to change or to improve on that. An | :09:02. | :09:07. | |
example, last night, Clinton talked to him about his financial problems. | :09:08. | :09:17. | |
She brought up 15 points and all of those are based on speculation. Now, | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
she worded it is such a way that if a person wasn't paying close | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
attention, they'd think that she was making factual statements. Letters | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
asked Dorothy's opinion. I agree Trump doesn't talk or act like a | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
politician, he should do that a little more. A bit more grandeur and | :09:38. | :09:43. | |
controversial statements alienate a lot of people and I think if he | :09:44. | :09:46. | |
wants to get enough support committee needs to stop alienating | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
people. But in a way that seems valid, not him just saying what we | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
want him to say, that he really means it. I don't know if he has | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
time to do that. Interesting views there. It is of course worth noting | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
that was the first of three presidential debates and there's | :10:05. | :10:07. | |
also a vice presidential debate next week. A lot of time in store for | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
many undecided voters who I've messed this morning to make up their | :10:12. | :10:12. | |
minds. -- who I've met this morning. There was a lot of talk | :10:13. | :10:17. | |
at the debate on trade and Donald Trump had some things | :10:18. | :10:20. | |
to say about Asia as well. Joining me from Washington | :10:21. | :10:23. | |
is political risk Welcome to the programme. Did you | :10:24. | :10:32. | |
get much of a picture of the kind of America we would see under each | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
candidate last night from that debate? How they would deal with the | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
rest of the world when it comes to trade? I thin maybe not so much with | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
trade, but certainly in terms of how they approach the world. From Trump | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
we got the same message is been saying all along, and that is that | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
US allies are taking advantage, we are footing the bill for the | :10:54. | :11:05. | |
Security and allowing them to get rich and take advantage of US | :11:06. | :11:07. | |
economic openness and trade deals and that has to stop. That has been | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
his worldview and he has been consistent. From Secretary Clinton, | :11:11. | :11:11. | |
it is a little different. She doesn't bother transpacific | :11:12. | :11:13. | |
partnership anymore, but she does have a worldview that recognises the | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
value of the institutions of the America created after the end of | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
World War II. She recognises there are some positive gains from the US | :11:23. | :11:25. | |
underwriting these global institutions. She knows that has to | :11:26. | :11:31. | |
continue and that there is for argument that. Donald Trump going on | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
in the attack over Clinton's reversal on that trade deal, how | :11:38. | :11:43. | |
much of a blow did he land there? That was seen as one of his | :11:44. | :11:50. | |
strongest elements. Is certainly an issue where Secretary Clinton is | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
vulnerable. People on her left, former supporters of Senator Sanders | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
from the Democratic campaign, I think it was a big issue for them. | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
There's a lot of questions over where she stands on this, what will | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
she do about it. Wherever her heart is, I think if she were elected, it | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
would be hard for her to move forward with the trade agreement. | :12:13. | :12:15. | |
Even President Obama is trying to get it done before he leaves office, | :12:16. | :12:21. | |
despite the obstacles. Is there any perception that Trump is more | :12:22. | :12:24. | |
trustworthy with matters of trade, given that he is a product of the | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
business world and not a politician? I don't know if trust really gets | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
there. This is someone who I thin back in 2000 talked about how he | :12:36. | :12:42. | |
was... If he were elected, he was going to be his own trade | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
Representative. So he's talked a big game about trade deals. But this is | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
closing the barn door after the horse has bolted. The US is still a | :12:53. | :12:55. | |
major manufacturing power, is just that they are very efficient at the | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
same number of manufacturing jobs available. In some ways, Secretary | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
Clinton's approach is better in that she's thinking about creating jobs | :13:05. | :13:07. | |
in the economy as a whole and we've heard none of that from Donald | :13:08. | :13:10. | |
Trump. He talks about these bad trade deals, there's no plan for how | :13:11. | :13:16. | |
to create good jobs in the United States, he just talks about stopping | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
jobs going overseas. That's not good enough. Thank you. | :13:20. | :13:21. | |
Scientists in the United States say the first baby has been | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
born using a new "three person" fertility technique. | :13:25. | :13:26. | |
The New Scientist Journal says a baby boy, | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
who is now five months old, was born to Jordanian parents. | :13:31. | :13:32. | |
They were treated by a US team in Mexico | :13:33. | :13:34. | |
as the procedures are not approved in the US. | :13:35. | :13:36. | |
parents with rare genetic mutations to avoid passing | :13:37. | :13:39. | |
It involves removing the nucleus from one of the mother's eggs, | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
and inserting it into a donor egg which has | :13:44. | :13:48. | |
In every case here, this is a genetic mutation which is passed on | :13:49. | :14:04. | |
a downer through the mother's ache in structures known as the power | :14:05. | :14:11. | |
packs of themselves. In a couple, from Jordan, had already had two | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
children who died of a genetic disorder and four miscarriages, all | :14:17. | :14:24. | |
as a result of this. Experts in New York took healthy donor DNA from a | :14:25. | :14:30. | |
second woman and mixed it with the DMA, the key DNA that you inherit | :14:31. | :14:36. | |
from your parents that affects your personality, how you look, all the | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
key DNA, and produced this healthy baby boy who is now five months old. | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
But that tiny bit, that no .01% of DNA from the third person will be | :14:48. | :14:55. | |
passed on down the generations. A little bit of disquiet that we | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
haven't had the full scientific report on this, where having to take | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
their word on it. It has come out as an abstract, one of the short, brief | :15:05. | :15:10. | |
paragraphs that hasn't even been discussed at the scientific | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
conference. We will get it at some point. What is the ethical and legal | :15:14. | :15:19. | |
position of a technique like this? It is very interesting, a lot of | :15:20. | :15:22. | |
people are uncomfortable about it. It's interesting that last team | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
based in New York, just off Central Park, went to Mexico to do it. They | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
went to Mexico, because there are no rules there. Indeed, many countries | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
would make this illegal. The only country that has specifically passed | :15:37. | :15:44. | |
legislation to permit it is the UK and a team of scientists in the | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
North of England are planning to help a handful of women every year, | :15:49. | :15:51. | |
but they haven't even applied for the license yet, this team, is not a | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
race of course, that New York have done it first. Thank you. | :15:57. | :15:58. | |
Now a look at some of the day's other news. | :15:59. | :16:01. | |
Typhoon Megi made landfall in Taiwan, the third major | :16:02. | :16:03. | |
storm to hit the island in a matter of weeks. | :16:04. | :16:05. | |
Megi has brought winds of nearly 200 kilometres an hour | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
and has caused disruption across the island. | :16:09. | :16:09. | |
At least four people have been killed, and hundreds injured. | :16:10. | :16:12. | |
Schools and offices are expected to be shut for a second | :16:13. | :16:14. | |
New York authorities say a firefighter has died | :16:15. | :16:21. | |
after responding to a report of a gas leak at | :16:22. | :16:23. | |
It seems an explosion happened at the two-storey private house | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
after the firefighters discovered a drug lab. | :16:28. | :16:29. | |
Six other officers have been taken to hospital with minor injuries. | :16:30. | :16:35. | |
A trial has begun in France of 15 current and former | :16:36. | :16:37. | |
employees of Air France, after two company executives | :16:38. | :16:39. | |
had their shirts torn off as a meeting on job cuts | :16:40. | :16:43. | |
Five of them face charges of organised violence, | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
while the rest are accused of damaging property. | :16:49. | :16:50. | |
The violent protest took place last October at the airline's | :16:51. | :16:54. | |
An Islamist militant from Mali who destroyed historic shrines | :16:55. | :17:01. | |
in the city of Timbuktu has been sentenced to nine years in prison | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
at the International Criminal Court in The Hague. | :17:05. | :17:06. | |
Ahmad al-Faqi al-Mahdi led the desecration of a number | :17:07. | :17:09. | |
of ancient tombs four years ago when an Al Qaeda-linked group took | :17:10. | :17:11. | |
According to tradition, the door of this city | :17:12. | :17:28. | |
mosque was supposed to | :17:29. | :17:31. | |
In this footage played in court, you can see | :17:32. | :17:40. | |
In this footage played in court, you can see it been broken down by | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
jihadists, an attempt to destroy the mystery | :17:44. | :17:45. | |
and with it, centuries of | :17:46. | :17:46. | |
He was found guilty of running the morality brigade, | :17:47. | :17:52. | |
a religious vice squad carrying out orders from the sharia courts. | :17:53. | :18:01. | |
They considered these Sufi shrines to be un-Islamic. | :18:02. | :18:03. | |
At the start of the trial, the prosecutor explained why the | :18:04. | :18:05. | |
destruction of cultural heritage is being prosecuted as a war crime for | :18:06. | :18:08. | |
Attacks on cultural property have become actual weapons | :18:09. | :18:12. | |
They are being used to eliminate entire communities and | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
It is done to make it seem as though they never existed. | :18:17. | :18:23. | |
During the trial all visible signs of the militant | :18:24. | :18:26. | |
TRANSLATION: I am pinning my hope on the fact that the punishment | :18:27. | :18:34. | |
that will be meted out to me will be sufficient | :18:35. | :18:37. | |
enough for the people to | :18:38. | :18:40. | |
People were also targeted during the rebel occupation | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
and many of the victims say that this case | :18:46. | :18:47. | |
fails to cover some of the | :18:48. | :18:48. | |
Particularly crimes against women, sexual violence, sexual slavery, | :18:49. | :18:53. | |
And the fact that these charges have not yet been | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
represented at the ICC is very difficult for people to understand. | :18:58. | :19:04. | |
The trial is being seen as a rest success for this controversial | :19:05. | :19:07. | |
It proves that some African nations are willing to cooperate | :19:08. | :19:10. | |
Ahmad al-Faqi al-Mahdi is unlikely to appeal, which means | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
that the authorities now have access to someone who may have inside | :19:16. | :19:18. | |
And it proves that people can be prosecuted for | :19:19. | :19:21. | |
Timbuktu has now been renovated and for a | :19:22. | :19:28. | |
local people, this represents a tangible and symbolic victory | :19:29. | :19:30. | |
Reports from Aleppo is a Syrian Government forces have been making | :19:31. | :19:46. | |
advances on the ground in the centre of the divided city. Military | :19:47. | :19:49. | |
sources and rebels say pro-government forces appeared to be | :19:50. | :19:52. | |
mobilising for a possible ground assault after several days of heavy | :19:53. | :19:56. | |
air strikes against the rebel held is of Aleppo. The new offensive was | :19:57. | :20:00. | |
launched with Russian backing after a week-long ceasefire collapsed. | :20:01. | :20:03. | |
The migrant crisis shows no signs of easing. | :20:04. | :20:06. | |
The ship which capsized off the Northern coast of Egypt last | :20:07. | :20:08. | |
week with hundreds on board has been raised from the sea bed. | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
11 more bodies were found on deck bringing the total number | :20:12. | :20:14. | |
It's unclear how many more people may be found below deck. | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
Many of the dead were young Egyptian men. | :20:21. | :20:22. | |
So what's driving so many of them to risk | :20:23. | :20:25. | |
From Northern Egypt, Orla Guerin reports. | :20:26. | :20:41. | |
The sons of this town are coming back home. | :20:42. | :20:43. | |
This village and others nearbyhave buried 20 men and teenage boys. | :20:44. | :20:46. | |
They fled the poverty of Egypt's Nile Delta, | :20:47. | :20:49. | |
He boarded the migrant ship, though he | :20:50. | :21:00. | |
The women tell those people smugglers should be executed. | :21:01. | :21:07. | |
Instead, they pay bribes and get released. | :21:08. | :21:13. | |
The boy's grandmother said he wanted to help get electricity | :21:14. | :21:15. | |
This man says his friends just wanted jobs and | :21:16. | :21:40. | |
Among everybody here, if | :21:41. | :21:48. | |
you are considering taking a boat, raise your hands. | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
Plenty of Egyptian children already have, | :21:52. | :21:56. | |
For those who risk of the dangerous voyage across the Mediterranean, | :21:57. | :22:06. | |
A boat approaches and families rush to the | :22:07. | :22:15. | |
dock, hoping to at least get bodies to bury. | :22:16. | :22:18. | |
Some victims phoned home as they struggled | :22:19. | :22:20. | |
Relatives tell us that in the crucial early hours, they got no | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
They were in the sea from 5am until 11am. | :22:25. | :22:29. | |
I come out of the captain, and these | :22:30. | :22:32. | |
This man lost his brother, who was only 20. | :22:33. | :22:47. | |
I asked him if he'd seen my brother swimming, | :22:48. | :22:54. | |
he said he swam for an | :22:55. | :22:55. | |
Locals say the lack of opportunities he will keep driving young men to | :22:56. | :23:17. | |
see and they expect this tragedy to be repeated. | :23:18. | :23:22. | |
Nasa's Hubble Space Telescope has taken new pictures | :23:23. | :23:24. | |
of one of the moons of Jupiter, called Europa. | :23:25. | :23:26. | |
They show jets of water spurting from the moon's icy surface. | :23:27. | :23:29. | |
The images are the first direct evidence that there is a vast | :23:30. | :23:32. | |
And the discovery increases the possibility of | :23:33. | :23:35. | |
Here's our Science Correspondent, Pallab Ghosh. | :23:36. | :23:42. | |
More than 350 million miles away, orbiting Jupiter, | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
Scientists think that under its surface there | :23:46. | :23:52. | |
might be a vast ocean - and where there's water, | :23:53. | :23:55. | |
These new pictures from the Hubble space telescope are the first direct | :23:56. | :24:04. | |
At the bottom left, jets of water - the largest of which | :24:05. | :24:12. | |
We've discovered these features here which may be plumes of water | :24:13. | :24:18. | |
If that's the case, it's exciting because it's depositing material | :24:19. | :24:24. | |
from the ocean on the surface of Europa and into space, | :24:25. | :24:30. | |
and that means we can look for organics and even signs of life. | :24:31. | :24:35. | |
Nasa and the European Space Agency both plan separate missions | :24:36. | :24:37. | |
The discovery of these jets now means that the search for life | :24:38. | :24:47. | |
Instead of having to land and drill through metres of ice to see | :24:48. | :24:53. | |
what's in the ocean, spacecraft can now fly | :24:54. | :24:55. | |
through the jets, collect the water and analyse it for evidence | :24:56. | :24:58. | |
I'm almost sure there is life of some kind out | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
I'd be flabbergasted if there wasn't. | :25:04. | :25:08. | |
I think the conditions seem to be right in a number of places that I'm | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
almost certain bacteria of some kind must be able to form in the liquid | :25:13. | :25:18. | |
water oceans on some of the moons of Jupiter and of Saturn, as well. | :25:19. | :25:26. | |
There's a new space race between the European Space Agency | :25:27. | :25:28. | |
and Nasa to get to Europa and the other moons of Jupiter. | :25:29. | :25:32. | |
Whoever gets there first could answer one of the biggest | :25:33. | :25:34. | |
questions in science - are we alone in the universe? | :25:35. | :25:49. | |
You can get in touch with me and some of | :25:50. | :25:51. | |
But for now from me and the rest of the team, goodbye. | :25:52. | :26:06. | |
the way for Scotland by Thursday. It is quite windy across the North | :26:07. | :26:14. | |
right now, quite a few showers as well. Things were, later in the | :26:15. | :26:18. | |
night. This weather front taking the remaining cloud and drizzle away, | :26:19. | :26:20. | |
but | :26:21. | :26:21. |
