| 0:10.2 | The Artemis 2 crew complete their record-setting moon fly-by and get a special call from President Trump. |
| 0:17.4 | But back here on Earth, the President's attention is on Iran with his deadline due to expire |
| 0:23.2 | very shortly. Hello, you're listening to Cheat Sheet, a 10-minute podcast on the day's news on |
| 0:29.2 | Tuesday the 7th of April. I'm Anna Jones. And I'm Kamali Melbourne. Great to be back with you, Anna. |
| 0:35.3 | Also today, some warm weather. Finally finally on its way as the Met Office |
| 0:38.4 | says the UK can expect its warmest day of the year so far. Well, the Artemis 2 crew have now set |
| 0:47.9 | the record for the furthest distance from Earth, travelled by a human surpassing the Apollo 13 record of 248,655 miles, which |

| 1:50.5 | that he held earlier in the day when he updated everybody on his threats to Iran. |
| 1:56.1 | We're going to talk about that a little bit more in a moment. |
| 1:58.9 | And I'm a bit surprised that President Trump hasn't aligned himself |
