About this episode
Astronauts aboard the Artemis II spacecraft have begun a four-day journey back towards the earth after completing a flyby of the far side of the moon. The mission began on April 1, when the rocket lifted off from the Kennedy Space Center in the United States, and has raised significant interest around the world. We heard from a representative of Africa2Moon - a project working towards Africa's first mission to the moon.
Also, the African Union Development Agency says foreign aid won’t be enough to bridge Africa's trillion-dollar funding gap. What does this mean for the continent's young population?
