Hello everyone.
I'm Allison Chinchar in for Koi Wire.
Ifyou were on spring break like we were, Ihope it was fun.
Hope you wore yoursunscreen and hope you're feeling readyto rock a fresh new week.
Now, let's getto your news for this Monday, April13th.
NASA and the rest of the world arewelcoming the Artemis 2 crew back toEarth.
The four astronauts received astanding ovation when they arrived atthe Johnson Space Center in Houston,Texas Saturday.
They also reunited withtheir families after their 10-dayjourney around the moon.
The Orioncapsule splashdown in the Pacific Oceanon Friday capped the successful mission.
Speaking publicly for the first timesince their return to Earth, the crewmembers described the camaraderie theyshared on their journey to deep space.
>> We are bonded forever and no one downhere is ever going to know what the fourof us just went through.
When thisstarted on April 3rd,I wanted to thank God in public and Iwant to thank God again.
>> What struck me wasn't necessarily justEarth.
It was all the blackness aroundit.
Earth was just this lifeboathangingundisturbingly in the universe.
>> When you look up here, you're notlooking at us.
We are a mirrorreflecting you.
And if you like what you see, then justlook a little deeper.
This is you.
>> These four history makers also brokeseveral world records.
They traveledfarther from Earth than any humans everbefore.
They witnessed the far side ofthe moon.
They even saw a solar eclipsefrom behind the moon.
Our Pete Montenehas more on the successful return andwhat comes next.
>> We heard from NASA officials who saidthat the Aremis 2 mission concluded withincredible accuracy.
A successfulsplashdown off the coast of San Diego at5 07 and 27 seconds Pacific time, thusconcluding a 9day 1h hour mission, anorbit around the moon.
AstronautsWiseman, Glover, Hansen, and Cook wereall plucked from the Orion capsule oneby one by Navy divers, then hoisted byhelicopters and flown to the deck of theUSS John P.
Murtha where we were seeingthem walk unassisted on the flight deck.
This concludes the most dangerous partof this mission, the re-entry wassurrounded by questions about whether ornot the heat shield and tweaks that NASAmade to the re-entry angle would workleading up to this re-entry.
There wasconcern that the heat shield that wasseen on Artemis one would have problemsagain in this crude mission.
Artemis onewas an uncrrewed mission.
Now NASAengineers will go over the heat shieldof the Orion spacecraft as it's hauledon board the USS John P.
Murtha.
NASAsays this is all about the folks behindthe scenes like those at Johnson SpaceFlight Center in Houston, which brokeout into a celebration after the sixminute long communications blackoutended during re-entry.
Some pretty bigquestions here, but NASA says now theyare focused on landing on the moon.
Thismassive test flight paves the way forthe Aremis 3 missions in 2027 and thenthe Aremis 4 mission in 2028 with thegoal of putting Americans on the moonagain.
>> Now to an update on US and Israel'songoing war in Iran and the outsizedimpact it's having on the global energymarket.
The ongoing conflict has beenfelt around the world and is causingchaos as far away as Ireland.
Roughlyonethird of the country's gas stationshave run out of fuel and key roadwayshave been blocked as part of protestsover rising fuel costs.
Our Ne Kennedyhas more on what's driving the surrealscenes.
This man appears to be walkingto the airport as tractors block roadsacross Ireland.
Farmers and hollersacross Ireland have been protesting for4 days over soaring fuel costs.
Convoysof tractors have clogged major roadsacross the country from inner cityDublin to fuel depots that supply muchof the country and it's caused chaos.
Atleast 250 service stations hadcompletely run out of fuel on Friday.
Anindustry body told CNN.
Now thegovernment has even asked the army to beon standby to help clear blocked roadsamid concerns that emergency servicescould be delayed.
Protesters say risingdiesel prices are pushing them to thebrink, and that government measures tocut fuel costs haven't gone far enough,the price hikes are tied in part to thewar in Iran, which has disrupted oilsupplies.
Time for 10-second trivia.
What is agroup of penguins called on land? Is ita herd, a flock, a colony, or a troop?Now, if you said colony, happy feet.
Once they're swimming together, thepenguins are often called a raft becausethey often float and move as a group onthe water's surface.
Climate change is pushing two iconicspecies closer to extinction.
Emperorpenguins, for one, and Antarctic furseals are now both listed as endangeredby the International Union for theConservation of Nature.
The animals wereadded to the group's red list, theworld's most comprehensive census ofthreatened species and their causes oftheir decline.
Factors like warmingocean waters, melting sea ice, anddeclining food availability are wreakinghavoc on their ecosystem and leadingwildlife experts to sound the alarm.
>> They need that ice.
Yes, they swim andthey hunt in the cold waters ofAntarctica, but they need that ice tonest, to raise their offspring, tobreed, to sleep.
And what a loss itwould be to our natural heritage to losethese species.
The same for these theCape for seal.
They're integral to theecosystem in the cold waters of thesouth.
And the krill that they dependupon, this is the food that they eat isgoing deeper and deeper and literally isbeyond their reach for a creature thatis designed to survive in the wild of awatery ecosystem.
>> The IUCN report says furs sealpopulations have shrunk by more than 50%since just 1999, and they fear emperorpenguin populations could be cut in halfby the year 2080.
This weekend marked a key date inChristianity.
Sunday was OrthodoxEaster.
Now, Orthodox Christians inparts of Eastern Europe and Asiacelebrate Easter Sunday later than theirWestern counterparts due to their use ofthe older Julian calendar.
And inJerusalem, a remarkable event ushered inthe holy holiday.
A single flame wasshared by hundreds of worshippers asthey celebrated at one of the faith'sholiest sites.
Our Orin Liebermanattended the Holy Fire ceremony atJerusalem's Church of the Holy Supplrfor an upclose look at the ancienttradition.
>> This is Holy Fire Saturday here insidethe Church of the Holy Supplr and it'sone of the most beautiful ceremonies inthe old city of Jerusalem.
It comes oneday before Orthodox Easter.
Churchleaders will enter the tomb of JesusChrist right here behind me and theywill come out with a flame fire that'ssupposed to be lit by the spirit ofJesus Christ.
That single flame as itcomes out is then spread around as youcan see here behind me to worshipperswho have been waiting all morningchanting saying prayers here inside thechurch and then they spread itthroughout not only inside the churchhere but the hundreds if not thousandswho are waiting outside.
This is areligious ceremony that has happened fora thousand years here in Jerusalem andis it is one of the most remarkable tosee.
>> More than 300 items from Queen ElizabethII's wardrobe are now on display inBuckingham Palace to mark 100 yearssince her birth.
Queen Elizabeth II herlife in style showcases fashion fromnearly a century of her royal life,including dresses, tiaras, and even herwedding necklace.
