For the first time in history, almost one in five Australians support One Nation.

Their surge in popularity comes as the Liberal Party bleeds support from both ends of its base, as it tears itself apart over climate and immigration.

So, is this just a protest – or the start of a permanent shift on the right of Australian politics?

Today, Director of Strategy and Analytics at Redbridge, Kos Samaras, on why One Nation is soaring – and what it means for the country.

Jeffrey Hoffman grew up on Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers. He was still a boy when the space age began – Sputnik, the first American astronauts, then Apollo. From early on, he knew he wanted to be part of it.

He was. Hoffman went on to fly five Space Shuttle missions, logging more than 1,200 hours in space. And today, he’ll be watching as NASA sends astronauts back around the moon for the first time in more than 50 years.

While Artemis II won't land on the moon – it's the next step in a plan to return humans to the lunar surface, and eventually establish a more permanent presence there.

And with China wanting to put astronauts on the moon before 2030, we're in the midst of a new space race.

Today, former NASA astronaut Jeffrey Hoffman, on why humanity is racing to the moon once again.

It’s now one month since the U.S. and Israel launched their war on Iran – and it looks like it may be entering a more dangerous phase.

Washington is sending thousands more troops into the Middle East – with President Trump saying he wants Iran’s oil and may seize the country’s Kharg island, adding he could take it “easily”.

Meanwhile, the diplomacy is confused, with Trump claiming negotiations are underway and Tehran stating there are no direct talks, while dismissing a potential U.S. proposal as one-sided and unfair.

Today, executive vice-president of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, Trita Parsi, on whether the U.S. is edging towards a ground war with Iran – and what it would actually take to get to a deal, if a deal is still possible at all.

Louis Theroux has spent years making television out of the people polite society prefers not to think about.

In his new documentary on the Manosphere, he turns that gaze on a world of male grievance, online swagger and old misogyny dressed up in the language of self-help.

In Australia, researchers and educators say that boys, women and girls are bearing the consequences of actions and attitudes turning up far beyond the screen – into classrooms, into harassment and intimidation, and in the growing sense among girls that school is becoming less and less safe.

Today, misogyny researcher at Monash University, Dr. Stephanie Westcott, on why Louis Theroux's documentary misses the real story, and what happens when we treat misogyny as fascinating instead of dangerous.
