Hello, I'm Ankur Desai and in the early hours of Saturday the 11th of April, these are our main stories.

The Orion space capsule carrying four astronauts has returned safely, splashing into the Pacific Ocean of Southern California and successfully concluding the Artemis II moon mission.

An Iranian delegation has arrived in Pakistan for negotiations with the United States, whose team is also on its way.

History has been made as the four astronauts of the Artemis lunar mission have safely returned to Earth, having made the first manned voyage to the moon and back in over half a century.

Their Orion capsule splashed down into the Pacific Ocean after 10 days in space.

They've broken the record for the furthest humans have ever travelled into space.

This was the moment the bullseye splashdown took place on the official NASA feed.
