Artemis II makes space history
Mission takes humanity deeper into space than ever before.
Four astronauts have taken humanity deeper into space than ever before, breaking a record set in 1970. We hear from space expert Dr Kevin Fong as well as Young and Sick, one of the bands whose songs have been played to the Artemis crew.
Also on the programme: President Trump repeats his deadline for Iran to agree to a deal with the United States; and the discovery of Yiddish songs performed during the Holocaust.
