Jared isaacman became the first non professional astronaut to walk in space. His first words as he stepped outside the Resilience Spacecracft were beautiful world. He used the first privately funded spacewalk to do Mobility Tests of the new type of spacesuit that will be at the forefront of the next generation of space exploration. Our Science Correspondent Pallab ghosh has the story. Back at home we all have a lot of work to do but from here, earth sure looks like a perfect world. Historic words for an historic moment. Out comes the first private Sector Astronaut to walk in space. Silhouetted in earths orbit, billionaire Jared Isaacman paid millions of dollars for this experience. Earlier, he was suiting up, as were the other three crew members. The capsulte has no air lock, so the entire spacecraft is in the vacuum of space once the doors opened. Then, the all important checks to make sure that the spacesuits dont leak. Theyd been upgraded for the spacewalk, stronger and more flexible. The helmets have a heads up display, so they see how well their bodies are coping. Then the air is taken out of the capsule, so the pressure inside matches whats outside. The hatch opens, and isaacman exits the spacecraft. Theres not much to do outside apart from testing the suit, so he floats around and enjoys the view, before returning to the capsule. Then its the turn of Mission Specialist sarah gillis. Shes trained for this moment for two years. We really are hoping to bring back this knowledge for the spacex team, of how does the suit perform . What did we really nail in the operation and in the training on the ground because this is a brand new Training Programme for our spacex team. So i think well be doing a lot of data finding, Fact Finding that we can then bring back to make future Spacewalk Operations or future Suit Design even better. It was 60 years ago that Alexei Leonov became the first person to walk in space. Since then, its only been astronauts working for Government Space agencies to have done this. Until now. This is the first ever private Sector Crew to have walked in space. Companies like Spacex Have done some things very differently. Theyve built lots and lots of Hardware And Theyve done lots of testing and weve all seen amazing explosions, Weve Seen Things go bang, but each time theyve learned from that process. You know, this could be a significant step. It will be really exciting to see what happens with the next polaris mission, so there are two more to come, we believe, and what are going to be the milestones for that that are going to be addressed . I cant wait. The historic spacewalk now over, the Crews Attention turns to carrying out experiments, before Beginning Theirjourney Home in two days time. Pallab ghosh, bbc news. Georgina rennard joins me live now from our cardiff newsroom. It seems to go like clockwork . There was a very tense hour watching the pictures inside the capsule and i thought it looked very small and tight and then of course we saw Jared Isaacman emerging and coming out, he moved his hands and feet to test the spacesuit and he went back in and it went very quickly. His Colleague Sarah at The End of the same thing. There were feelings of nervousness because this was a risky and quite dangerous operation but the mission was successful and they pulled it off and im sure Jared Isaacman will be very pleased with the success. He has funded this and we do not know the exact Cost Butjust we do not know the exact cost but just one seat we do not know the exact Cost Butjust one seat on a Spacex Flight is considered 55 Billion so he will be pleased this is a success. He has seen the amazing view of earth from just outside the capsule. Seeing those pictures now and we have now gone inside the capsule here, but you were talking about the potential dangers and jeopardy, and there were many of those moments, although all passed off with no event. What are the next stages . Stages . This is part of a sixday stages . This is part of a sixday mission, stages . This is part of a sixday mission, the stages . This is part of a sixday mission, the spacecraft six day mission, the spacecraft launched on tuesday and this is the third day and it has two more days in space, tomorrow we think it will broadcast a message, and on saturday it will begin its descent from a high orbit and then splashed down into the ocean off the coast of florida where it will be picked up and they will be celebrating the Success And Learning from this and i do not think this will be the last of the billionaires doing a Space Walk and they will be hoping that someday the rest of us who do not have that much money may have the opportunity to do our own Space Walks but that is probably a long way off. Georgina, Thanks Forjoining us. Lets speak to Space Scientist dr hina khan. Thanks forjoining us. Now straight back to the pictures because they were quite incredible. You were watching them as they happen. It is so interesting because astronauts will spend years in training but that moment when they emerge, and they see that in view of the earth, it is an extraordinary moment that takes the breath away from everyone who has ever done it . Absolutely. I am not one of those people but having seen the pictures, i can imagine what it feels like to have that feeling, to be out in the vastness of space. Whilst this has been the privilege of a very select few, what is important to understand is that what has happened in orderfor them to get here, the Development And Technology taken to build these new spacesuits and experience that, it is a collaborative effort with lots of different people, hundreds of thousands, who have worked on this moment to get these individuals into this situation. These individuals into this situation. ,. , situation. Tell me more about the significance, situation. Tell me more about the significance, the situation. Tell me more about| the significance, the spacesuit is part about what we need, the next generation of space exploration, with missions to mars and elsewhere, but how do you see the significance of this, the first commercial spacewalk . Spacewalk . Two really interesting spacewalk . Two really interesting Things Spacewalk . Two really interesting things and | spacewalk . Two really interesting things and this is paving the way for what we all know is the return to the moon, moving on to mars and off planet habitats, and that is a clear objective for many different government agencies, nasa and the European Space agency and the commercial flight environment, so the testing is really exciting and making sure that it has been a success but the broader context within the commercial space environment, it is allowing commercial Industry Bodies to be part of this journey. We talked earlier, one of the correspondents mentioned commercial Space Development is happening across the board, so it was the domain of a State Run organisations but now individual industries and companies can build satellites and take the technology to space. This is another step and we are now into Space Flight as well as a spacesuit and all the details that are required to have individuals and people within the space domain, it is opening that up to a much broader environment. I will come back broader environment. I will come back to broader environment. I will come back to that broader environment. I will come back to that but broader environment. I will come back to that but so i broader environment. I will. Come back to that but so many extraordinary stories involved in what we have seen today. Sarah gillis made the second spacewalk, she started at spacex as an intern and there she is now doing a spacewalk like this, making history. Absolutely. That is what is so exciting, and yes, there are some individuals who have a lot of money to be able to do these things, but this is also opening doors to young people who have an interest in the space sector. Spacex is a large company which has developed its own capability and we have companies of this site in the uk and also in europe this size. Young people are seeing there is opportunity to be part of something much bigger. Im not saying everyone gets to go to space, though. We not saying everyone gets to go to space, though. Not saying everyone gets to go to space, though. We saw them all breaking to space, though. We saw them all breaking into to space, though. We saw them all breaking into applause to space, though. We saw them all breaking into applause in all breaking into applause in Spacex H O all breaking into applause in Spacex H 0 when the first spacewalk took place, the first few steps, underlying the massive amount of work that goes into something like this and you have got nasa with their trips to the moon, so what is your assessment of the pace of technological advance . That is it. When it was the domain of government agencies, like nasa, there was a Direction Of Travel that was being dictated by those organisations but now bringing it out into the commercial domain, it is highly competitive, and that drives innovation, and it allows organisations to think about what is the next opportunity that we can help push forward on this, and being able to get to this point from a commercial standpoint, i think that is really critical. It allows the opportunity to grow much broader thanjust the opportunity to grow much broader than just the select few organisations that might have done this in the past. An exciting time for the sector as a whole. It exciting time for the sector as a whole. , exciting time for the sector as a whole. ,. , a whole. It really is. Thanks forjoining a whole. It really is. Thanks forjoining us. Russian shelling has killed three ukrainians working for the international committee of the Red Cross and injured two others in a Frontline Village in the donetsk region, according to a statement from the Red Cross. The Icrc Team was preparing to distribute Wood And Coal in a Village North of donetsk city, to vulnerable households in preparation for the upcoming winter, when their vehicles were hit. I am joined now by our ukraine correspondent, james waterhouse. Tell us more about what you know. �. ,. , know. Attacks like this, humanitarian know. Attacks like this, humanitarian Vehicles L know. Attacks like this, humanitarian vehicles being struck in this way, it is rare, and a few months ago we saw a vehicle belonging to a similar body being hit, this looks like a similar situation, three people injured, to kill, a team from the international Red Cross were giving out Wood And Coal to a village on the Front Line and when you are within 20 kilometres, there is always the looming threat of drone and missile attacks or artillery strikes. A reminder of the risks. We have spoken to the icrc who say they are heartbroken. We have a statement here from their president , she says, i condemn attacks on our personnel in the strongest possible terms, it is unconscionable that shelling should hit an aid distribution site, our hearts are broken and this tragedy unleashes a wave of grief all too familiar for those who have lost Loved Ones in armed conflict. No response from the kremlin but this is certainly a bleak day for the Aid Teams who work in these parts of the conflict zone. Thanks forjoining us. Here in the uk, the Prime Minister has described the Health Service as broken but not beaten, after a review commissioned by his government concluded that the nhs in england was in serious trouble. The Report Highlights declining productivity and patients being put at risk by Ballooning Waits and awful emergency services. Despite the damning findings, Keir Starmer says there would be no extra money without reform, as our Health Correspondent Catherine burns explains. As a diagnosis goes, this one is serious. The patient is in a critical condition. The body is under huge strain, but it can be saved. The vital signs are strong. Thats the professional opinion of this man, surgeon lord darzi. He used to be a Labour Health Minister and has spent the last couple of months assessing the state of the nhs. His report talks a lot about waiting in busy corridors, in a e, to see your gp, for cancer care. He says long waits have become normalised but some things stood out for him. 100,000 children and adolescents waiting for mental Health Services, access, for more than one year that was truly, truly shocking. Elderly patients lying on trolleys for 12 hours above a certain age. Again, shocking news. The report is particularly damning about the physical state of the nhs. Lord Darzi Talks about a £37 billion shortfall in buildings and equipment. He says if that had been spent over the years it would have been enough to refurbish every gp practice, to provide up to Date Kit and to build the a0 new hospitals that were promised. Instead, he says were left with crumbling buildings and Decrepit Portakabins and technology that just isnt up to the job. And so the Prime Minister is promising change calling it the biggest reimagining ever of the nhs. He says this will focus around three shifts a shift from treating sickness to preventing it. As part of that, Transferring Care in hospitals to more focus on the community. And moving away from old technology to embracing digital. The nhs is at a fork in the road and we have a choice about how it should meet those demands. Dont act and leave it to die, raise taxes on working people or reform to secure its future. Now, working People Cant afford to pay more, so its reform or die. Dont expect a quick fix. A long Term Plan for the nhs will come in the spring and theres an acknowledgement that it will take years for the nhs to get back to good health. Catherine burns, bbc news. We will be in philadelphia we will be in philadelphia because we have 5a days until because we have 5a days until the us president ial Election the us president ial Election and our correspondent is and our correspondent is talking to voters. We will be talking to voters. We will be back with her in just a few back with her in just a few moments. Moments. Around the world and across the uk. Around the world and across the uk. This is bbc news. This is bbc news. In a big Election. In this battleground state, politics are never far from the surface. Too big, too small Orjust Right . Including forjames and tracy lamb, who run evolution candy. Thank you. Harris is the obvious candidate, is the smart candidate. I dont even like saying the other guys name, hes a convicted felon. How is he even allowed to be on on the ticket . Amid the afternoon After School sugar rush, tracy tells us she believes theres only one choice in this Election. Weve obtained certain rights over the years, and i believe that theyre slowly being taken away with things like the overturning of Roe V wade. I believe the Trump Side of things is trying to pull us backwards. As the Election remains on a knifes edge, all eyes will be on the critical Swing State of pennsylvania and counties just like this one. Bucks county voted Forjoe Biden in 2020, and it has a republican member of congress. We spoke to some residents who tell us they want to see a change in november. Ten minutes down the road in chalfont, scott stokes, who has run a Pest Control Business for 35 years, has a very different picture of whats at stake in this Election. Thats the most recent one. But if you want to see my trump shrine. I might be one of the few Business Owners who has a picture of the president. Mugs and i even have him talking to you. Financially, all the prices are up. Gasoline is up. Uh, the taxes are never ending. I get audited constantly. My fear is, if harris becomes president , its going to be the final flush of the toilet. When Donald Trump was president , i knew that he knew business. I knew that he knew how to cut the fat and cut the waste. At the family diner, an institution in the neighbourhood, The Cost Of Living and the Election are on the minds of regulars. I think that it needs to be easier for people to pay their rent. It needs to be easier for people to buy groceries. To get an education, and it needs to be easier to get health care. And i didnt hear answers to any of those four questions. I feel like the Policy Answers are not being given by either candidate. A reminder that this county and this state will be fought one vote at a time. Lets speak to Sumi Somaskanda who is in in pennsylvania. We are about an hour outside of philadelphia and we are back at the Family Restaurant from the report, because this is where regulars come to have Breakfast And Lunch to talk about what is going on in their lives and we want to bring you to one person we met this morning, he is in the restaurant. Great to see you.

We have breaking news coming into us, Harvey Weinstein has been hit with new criminal charges in new york. Jurors in manhattan found Harvey Weinstein guilty on Rape Charges in 2020, but the new York Court of appeal throughout the conviction in april, because a judge improperly allowed a testimony by accusers, and he was not formally accused of assaulting them, and thejudge did not specify the new charges but it is understood that more women agreed to testify against the Miramax Studio co founder. The judge said a new trial could start as soon as the 12th of november. We will have more on that injust a november. We will have more on that in just a moment. Hello there. Weve got another cold but sunny Start Tomorrow Morning and then the weather is going to change. Right now the winds have come from a long way north, which is why its so cold. But as we head into the weekend, we cut off the supply of cold air. The winds coming in from the atlantic and temperatures are going to rise. Today, though, weve got a mixture of sunshine and showers. Once again seeing some heavy showers breaking out, those showers breaking out a little more widely through the afternoon. Temperatures again 13 to 15 degrees below average for the time of year, but not quite as windy this time, and the winds continue to fall light overnight. The showers tend to fade away, just keeping a few in the far north of scotland and maybe around some of those North Sea coasts. But clear skies, light winds, it all points to a cold night, colder than last night. We may well have temperatures dipping below freezing in Southeast Scotland and parts of northern england, so really a cold start to tomorrow. Sunny, though, as we head through the day and temperatures rise a little so there will be some cloud developing, but were not really expecting the showers this time. And this rain coming into Northern Ireland is much slower. Whilst it will turn cloudy in Northern Ireland, itll be late in the day before we see any rain and it should be dry in scotland, but still on the cold side here. Temperatures will be a little Higherfor England and wales, underneath that area of high pressure, keeping it dry. This low pressure, though heading towards iceland, will steer these Weather Fronts towards scotland and Northern Ireland and strengthen the winds. Particularly windy in the far northwest of scotland. Most of the rain, though, will be coming into Northern Ireland and Western Scotland through the day. England and wales maybe seeing a bit more cloud in the west, sunshine in the eastern side of england and those temperatures continuing to lift to 19, possibly even 20 degrees and across the whole of the Uk Temperatures are going to be higher than what were seeing at the moment, which is good news, i suppose, and it wont be as cold at night either, particularly on that weather front, as it runs southwards into england and wales. Now its running into higher pressure, so there may not be an awful lot of rain. Some rain for a while in northern england. That will continue in wales, maybe the West Midlands and towards the south west. Sunny skies for scotland and Northern Ireland. It wont be as windy. Weve still got temperatures up to 16 or 17 degrees and dry and a bit warmer still in southeastern parts of england
