After Neil Armstrong became the first person to walk on the moon, billionaire Jared Isaacman became the first non professional astronaut to walk in space. Our Science Correspondent Phalab ghosh was 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 on earths orbit. Hed paid billions of dollars for this experience. The capsule has no Air Logs of the entire spacecraft is in the vacuum of space once the doors open. Then the all important checks to make sure the spacesuits dont leak. They have 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. The air is taken out of the capsule so the pressure inside matches what is outside. The hatch opens, and isaacman exits the spacecraft. There is not much to do outside apart from testing the suit, so he floats around and enjoys the view, before returning to the capsule. Then it is the turn of Mission Specialist sarah gillis. She is trained for this moment, and has trained for it for two years. We are hoping to bring back this knowledge for the spacex team, how does it perform . What did we really nail in the training and on the ground because this is a brand new Training Programme . We are bringing that back to make future spacewalk operations and future suit to design even better. It was 60 years ago that the first person walked in space. Since then, it has 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. Spacex have done things very differently. They have built lots of hardware and have done lots of testing and we have all seen amazing explosions, we have seen things go bang, but each time they have learned from that process and this could be a significant step. It will be really exciting to see what happens with the next polaris mission, two more to come we believe, and what are 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. Libbyjackson is the head of Space Exploration at the Uk Space agency and says the transition to private Space Exploration will benefit people back on earth. It is fantastic to see that this commercial Space Sector in low Earth Orbit is taking these steps, because it is the transition from a government funded enterprise, which weve seen over the last 50, 60 years, to a place where there are new opportunities, new investors, new funding coming in, and the opportunities that that will bring for technology, for new materials, things like new pharmaceuticals, will ultimately benefit everybody back on earth. One question people might have is why isnt nasa, for example, doing this . Why is a commercial enterprise doing this . Well, its been the goal of Space Agencies around the world, including nasa, including the Uk Space agency, to see this Transition Take place. So spacex have contracts with nasa for parts of nasas work. They ferry Crew And Cargo to and from the international space station. They will be landing astronauts on the moon but this was something that spacex had developed. And that Technology Development independently is all part of spacexs plan. And that will benefit nasa as well, because well see that Spacesuit Technology potentially feed into future Government Funded Missions as well. And, of course, this is all part of the the wider Future Exploration of space. Thats what lies behind missions like this. How dangerous, though, how risky was it for the four . Everything, thankfully seems to have gone very well so far. Its been really good to see the pressurisation and this spacewalk coming to an end, because it was the first time this has ever been done, and a spacewalk is always a risky part of any mission, along with the launch and the landing. Those are the three parts where there is the most risk for astronauts. But any Anybody Undertaking this, spacex in this case, always go to great lengths to make sure that the safety of the crew is paramount. That spacecraft will have been tested. The spacesuits will have been tested, and it does look like everythings gone well. But to have all four astronauts exposed to space, all of them were in these pressure suits, all of them were in that vacuum of space. Thats not been done, really, since the Gemini Missions right back in the 19605 when we were learning how to live and work in space. And so its really good to see that this spacewalk appears to have all gone successfully, and the crew are safely back in their capsules. The Prime Minister says the nhs is broken but not beaten, after a review into the Health Service in england. The report by lord darzi, a surgeon and former labour minister, found long waits for care and poor Survival Rates for cancer. Despite the damning review, Keir Starmer says there will 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. The uk performs noticeably poorer than other countries on Health Outcomes like surviving Cancer And Life expectancy, there are fewer doctors and nurses but a higher bed occupancy. In the pandemic, it cancelled more Routine Care than any other comparable health system, from 2019 until 2020, Knee Replacements fell by 20 during 68 , compared to 20 On Average elsewhere. 20 during 68 , compared to 2096 On Average elsewhere. 2096 during 6896, compared to 2096 On Average elsewhere. On average elsewhere. There are challenges. On average elsewhere. There are challenges, and On Average elsewhere. There are challenges, and the On Average elsewhere. There are challenges, and the pandemic. Challenges, and the pandemic was a huge shock, once in a sensory event that disrupted services and lead to longer waiting times in all of these countries, so there are similar challenges, but the scope is arguably greater in the nhs, notjust in england, but across the uk. That is largely because the uk. That is largely because the nhs has in comparison to many of these other countries, fewer hospital beds and doctors per head of population and fewer nurses, so it is run on a much tighter ship and there was less capacity in the system to absorb the shocks. As it was pointed out today, the nhs ended up cancelling more non Virus Macro Treatment than any other comparable countries. Now to the united states. The us Swing State of pennsylvania will be critical in the race for the white house. With polls putting Kamala Harris and Donald Trump at 5050. The states biggest city, philadelphia, votes democrat but the counties surrounding it are closely contested.

Un Secretary General<\/a> Antonio Guterres<\/a> said the attack amounted to a dramatic violations of international humanitarian law. The uk foreign secretary, david lammy, described reports of the killings as appalling. From jersusalem, Daniel De Simone<\/a> sent this report. In clear daylight, death from the sky. The united Nations Agency<\/a> for Palestinian Refugees<\/a> says the israeli Air Strike<\/a> on this school in a gazan Refugee Camp<\/a> is the deadliest of this war for its staff killing six meaning at least 220 employees have died since the conflict began last october.

This isnt the first time. Its the fifth time the school has been targeted. The un said the school housed around 12,000 displaced people, mainly women and children.

We have witnessed a series of military interventions by israel in gaza, with the level of Death And Destruction<\/a> that has no parallel in my time as Secretary General<\/a> and with very dramatic violations of international humanitarian law. The Israeli Military<\/a> says this was a precise Air Strike<\/a>, targeted at terrorists planning attacks from a Hamas Command Centre<\/a> in the compound, and that its an example of the systematic abuse of civilian infrastructure by hamas. Nearly a year into this war, the chasm between the two sides remains vast. Daniel de simone, bbc news, jerusalem. Pope francis has called on people to treat Each Other<\/a> with fairness in a mass In Singapore<\/a>. It is a first visit by the pope To Singapore<\/a> since 1986. Pope francis said life was characterised by a deep respect for others no matter their race or beliefs, and he said society In Singapore<\/a> should be united in solidarity despite being ethnically diverse. Singapore is the last leg of a 12 Day Asia<\/a> pacific tour for the 87 year old pontiff. My colleague joins us from singapore. Where you were last hour, a huge Concert Taking Place<\/a> after the mass and the sheer volume we could hear gives a sense of the celebration this has been for catholics in the country. I could not hear you and i could barely hear myself. That was about an hour ago but everything is calm now, very quiet. The stadium behind me is gearing down and hopefully the lights will stay on while im talking to you. Significant day In Singapore<\/a> and the pope has been here before, in 1986, and he only stayed here five hours but this time around Pope Francis<\/a> was In Singapore<\/a> for three days and this is the second day. He started with a visit to a university and he spoke alongside the singapore president talking about social cohesion and interfaith dialogue and the environment as well. Those were messages he was trying to get across and He Xp<\/a> travelled around in an electric vehicle he actually travelled. There were 50,000 people here to celebrate mass along with him and 3000 came from overseas as well. Remarkable thing to be a part of. Catholic services are often quite sombre and reserved and that was certainly the case when i was almost whispering at times, but that gave way to what can only be described as a concert an hour ago when i could barely hear myself speak. That is all Done And Dusted<\/a> and ramped up and the pope is on his way to restaurant up he has two more events, he is visiting the sick and elderly the pope is on his way to rest up. Hes also going to meet with some young people with another interfaith dialogue as part of his trip and then he will be back on the plane and making his way back to rome. Briefly, the Po E<\/a> his way back to rome. Briefly, the pope in his way back to rome. Briefly, the pope In Singapore<\/a> his way back to rome. Briefly, the pope In Singapore<\/a> talked l the pope In Singapore<\/a> talked about making sure that Migrant Workers<\/a> should be paid a fair wage, In Singapore<\/a> is a global capital, and he has delivered these messages throughout the trip. How do people think he has coped with such a gruelling agenda . He has coped with such a Gruelling Arenda<\/a> . , i~ has coped with such a Gruelling Arenda<\/a> . , f~.

Singapore is a bustling city but built on the back of the Migrant Labourers<\/a> and he was keen to drive that home. Notjust to the singaporeans but also of the hierarchy of the country who are looking after things here. But that is it for me and i will send it back to you. Steve, Thanks Forjoining<\/a> us.

Business and sport coming up for you. Hello again. Its been a rather chilly start to the day, but for many of us its been a dry start. We have seen some sunshine already. Showers, though, have been affecting northern and western areas of the uk and as we go into the afternoon, those showers will continue. So today, really, its a mixture of those sunny spells and showers. Some of them could be on the heavy side with the Odd Rumble<\/a> of thunder as well. But why is it so cold at the moment . Well, the air is coming in all the way from the arctic. You can see those blues there across the uk as we go through today. Behind me, the milderair will start to move its way back in as we go into the weekend. But for this afternoon, you can see just a rash of showers, really, across the united kingdom. Some of those, as i say, could be heavy, maybe thundery, perhaps not quite as frequent or as heavy as they were yesterday. Sunny spells in between. Still that north westerly wind. Temperatures below the average for the time of year at 1315c. Now, through this evening and tonight, the showers will fade away, skies will clear and the wind will drop. And that means temperatures will fall away quite quickly through tonight. And actually, tonight into Tomorrow Morning<\/a> could be even colder than it was last night. Temperatures perhaps down to freezing across northern parts of england and into central scotland. Those are the temperatures in the towns and cities 2 7 degrees. But for friday, its going to be a lovely start to the day with lots of sunshine. A few showers perhaps across northern scotland, one or two coming in towards east anglia, the southeast of england as well. But for most of us, its a dry and a fairly sunny day on friday. Maximum temperatures up by a degree or so on today 13 to 17 degrees. But into the weekend, we will see that switch in wind direction, a South Westerly Wind<\/a> bringing milder air. High pressure sitting to the southeast, keeping things settled, low pressure to the northwest. And thats going to bring in some pretty strong winds across the far North And West<\/a> of scotland through saturday, along with some rain, which is going to gradually move its way in across scotland and northern ireland. Cloud increasing in northern and western areas of england and wales, but down to the southeast, its staying dry and fairly bright. Temperatures up again a little bit about 16 to 19 degrees on saturday afternoon. As we go through sunday and into the rest of the week, well, actually not looking too bad. Sunny spells and temperatures more typical for the time of year. Bye bye. Live from New York<\/a> at the opening bell, this is business today.
