NASA to launch its first crewed mission to the Moon in over half a century

NASA is set to launch its first crewed mission to the Moon in more than half a century.

NASA is to launch the Artemis II mission to the Moon. It is the first time for over half a century a crewed rocket will head to the celestial body, we’ll hear from one of the four surviving astronauts who have set foot on the Moon.

Also in the programme: Tomorrow the UK government will host a gathering of international leaders to discuss plans to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, we speak to our Chief International Correspondent Lyse Doucet; and what is happening on the streets of Clapham? We hear from a former deputy assistant commissioner to the Metropolitan Police after a number of young people were arrested for taking part in a social media trend called "swarming the streets."
