India makes history in moon landing

India is the first country to have a space mission land near the south pole of the Moon

India's Chandrayaan-3 has become the first space mission to land near the south pole of the Moon. "India is now on the Moon," announced PM Narendra Modi immediately after the Vikram lander touched down on the lunar surface. We'll speak to space enthusiasts in India to hear their reaction.

Also, many people are still reacting to the dramatic rescue of 8 people from a cable car in Pakistan. We'll speak to other people who have been stuck in cable cars and the people that rescue them.

And we'll take a look at the wildfires happening in Greece, Canada and Tenerife.
