WEBVTT 00:11.360 --> 00:13.360 Hello and welcome to the show. I'm Ky 00:13.360 --> 00:15.440 Wire. This is CNN 10, your 10 minutes of 00:15.440 --> 00:16.880 news, where I simply tell you the what, 00:16.880 --> 00:19.119 letting you decide what to think. I am 00:19.119 --> 00:21.520 back from a whirlwind run of assignments 00:21.520 --> 00:23.760 and work travel, including the final 00:23.760 --> 00:25.439 four, where I got to meet a whole bunch 00:25.439 --> 00:29.640 of our CNN 10 fam. 00:38.399 --> 00:41.520 How you feel about those Wolverines? 00:41.520 --> 00:42.559 Let's go. 00:42.559 --> 00:44.800 >> And let me just say, you are the real 00:44.800 --> 00:47.760 MVPs. You make this show what it is. 00:47.760 --> 00:50.160 Now, let's get you your news. We start 00:50.160 --> 00:51.440 with an update on the Straight of 00:51.440 --> 00:53.920 Hormuz, a narrow stretch of water with 00:53.920 --> 00:55.760 massive global impact. And right now 00:55.760 --> 00:57.600 it's at the center of tensions involving 00:57.600 --> 01:00.000 the United States and Israel's war with 01:00.000 --> 01:02.000 Iran. On Monday morning, the United 01:02.000 --> 01:03.920 States military began enforcing a 01:03.920 --> 01:06.400 blockade of Iranian ports along the 01:06.400 --> 01:08.479 street. A move that will further disrupt 01:08.479 --> 01:11.040 the global flow of oil and one already 01:11.040 --> 01:13.840 sending gas prices in the US ticking 01:13.840 --> 01:16.880 upward again. US President Donald Trump 01:16.880 --> 01:18.640 announced the blockade after weekend 01:18.640 --> 01:21.520 peace talks with Iran in Pakistan failed 01:21.520 --> 01:23.520 to produce a breakthrough. The straight 01:23.520 --> 01:25.520 typically handles about 20% of the 01:25.520 --> 01:27.360 world's daily oil shipments. That's 01:27.360 --> 01:29.360 about one of every five barrels. And 01:29.360 --> 01:31.840 Iran controls the key waterway at its 01:31.840 --> 01:33.840 narrowest point. After restricting 01:33.840 --> 01:36.320 access early in the conflict, Iran had 01:36.320 --> 01:38.240 allowed some tankers through in recent 01:38.240 --> 01:40.320 weeks, reportedly charging tolls as high 01:40.320 --> 01:43.600 as $2 million per ship. Now, the US 01:43.600 --> 01:45.759 blockade appears to be aimed at cutting 01:45.759 --> 01:47.680 off that revenue stream for Iran's 01:47.680 --> 01:49.759 government and military. The Iranian 01:49.759 --> 01:52.000 Revolutionary Guard Corps has vowed 01:52.000 --> 01:54.479 retaliation and world leaders warned 01:54.479 --> 01:57.040 this situation could spur greater 01:57.040 --> 01:58.799 instability in the region. 01:58.799 --> 02:00.880 >> The ongoing closure of the Strait of 02:00.880 --> 02:04.079 Hormuz is greatly damaging and the 02:04.079 --> 02:06.240 restoration of the freedom of navigation 02:06.240 --> 02:10.000 is of paramount importance for us. The 02:10.000 --> 02:13.120 region remains on edge and a lot of work 02:13.120 --> 02:15.840 is required to reopen the straight of 02:15.840 --> 02:19.280 Hammuz to deescalate the situation 02:19.280 --> 02:22.080 leading to a sustainable ceasefire. 02:22.080 --> 02:24.800 >> The Aremis 2 crew is back safe and sound 02:24.800 --> 02:26.560 after traveling deeper into space than 02:26.560 --> 02:29.760 any humans in history. More than 252,000 02:29.760 --> 02:32.400 miles from Earth around the moon. For 02:32.400 --> 02:34.000 perspective, the International Space 02:34.000 --> 02:36.800 Station is approximately 250 miles from 02:36.800 --> 02:38.560 Earth. The mission is delivering 02:38.560 --> 02:40.640 critical research on how deep space 02:40.640 --> 02:43.120 affects the human body. Data that could 02:43.120 --> 02:45.120 help pave the way for future missions to 02:45.120 --> 02:47.519 the moon and one day perhaps Mars. 02:47.519 --> 02:49.680 Before launch, we asked you for your 02:49.680 --> 02:51.519 biggest questions about the mission. And 02:51.519 --> 02:53.519 our Dr. Sanjay Gupta is here with 02:53.519 --> 02:55.599 answers on everything from catching Z's 02:55.599 --> 02:57.680 in zero G to how astronauts stay 02:57.680 --> 03:00.640 hydrated when down doesn't exist. 03:00.640 --> 03:02.800 >> So many questions coming in about 03:02.800 --> 03:05.360 Artemis 2. Uh I spent a lot of time with 03:05.360 --> 03:07.519 the NASA doctors over the years. I find 03:07.519 --> 03:08.959 this to be a topic of endless 03:08.959 --> 03:12.000 fascination. Just the granular detail, 03:12.000 --> 03:13.519 the all the planning they have to do for 03:13.519 --> 03:15.440 a mission like this from a health 03:15.440 --> 03:17.680 perspective. And certainly sleep is a 03:17.680 --> 03:18.720 big part of this. And we got this 03:18.720 --> 03:20.319 question from a grandma in Canada who 03:20.319 --> 03:22.159 says she's writing in on behalf of her 03:22.159 --> 03:24.239 seven-year-old grandson, Cammy, 03:24.239 --> 03:26.800 wondering about sleep times. Is there a 03:26.800 --> 03:29.519 schedule? And do they feel rested? I 03:29.519 --> 03:31.040 love that a seven-year-old's writing in 03:31.040 --> 03:33.440 for with questions as well. So, first of 03:33.440 --> 03:35.840 all, yeah, sleep is a huge part of the 03:35.840 --> 03:37.360 planning that goes into a mission like 03:37.360 --> 03:39.120 this. And they really want these 03:39.120 --> 03:41.360 astronauts to get eight hours of sleep. 03:41.360 --> 03:43.280 We have these images of what the capsule 03:43.280 --> 03:46.000 looks like. It's a really small space. 03:46.000 --> 03:47.599 These these sleeping bags, as you see 03:47.599 --> 03:49.360 there, they're attached to the wall. 03:49.360 --> 03:50.879 Obviously, they're in a microgravity 03:50.879 --> 03:52.879 environment, so they're floating, but 03:52.879 --> 03:54.400 they do keep the sleeping bags attached 03:54.400 --> 03:57.599 to the wall. You have noise, light, 03:57.599 --> 04:00.159 vibration, circadian rhythms, all these 04:00.159 --> 04:01.920 things that interfere with sleep. And 04:01.920 --> 04:03.599 the first particular night of the 04:03.599 --> 04:06.239 mission, they had to to basically break 04:06.239 --> 04:08.720 up the sleep into two separate chunks 04:08.720 --> 04:10.159 because they had to wake up for some 04:10.159 --> 04:12.480 mission critical activities, including 04:12.480 --> 04:14.720 firing the rockets toward the moon. Got 04:14.720 --> 04:16.079 another question. This one's from Brenda 04:16.079 --> 04:18.239 in New Jersey. He writes, "Since water 04:18.239 --> 04:20.239 is heavy, I wonder how they get this 04:20.239 --> 04:22.160 essential nutrient up there with them, 04:22.160 --> 04:23.600 how do they continue to keep up with 04:23.600 --> 04:25.440 their daily intake amount to avoid 04:25.440 --> 04:27.120 dehydration? 04:27.120 --> 04:28.639 This is one of the most challenging 04:28.639 --> 04:31.280 things because water is heavy. They're 04:31.280 --> 04:34.000 sending up four tanks that are 125 04:34.000 --> 04:36.000 pounds each. And take a look at these 04:36.000 --> 04:38.080 images here. You have these lines then 04:38.080 --> 04:40.960 from those tanks to to basically a 04:40.960 --> 04:43.520 dispenser which sits inside the capsule. 04:43.520 --> 04:46.080 They use this to to get drinking water, 04:46.080 --> 04:49.360 but also to rehydrate their food. Much 04:49.360 --> 04:51.680 of the food goes up freezedried in order 04:51.680 --> 04:54.160 to save space and then they rehydrate it 04:54.160 --> 04:55.360 when they're back up there on the 04:55.360 --> 04:56.880 capsule. And I think we got one more 04:56.880 --> 04:59.440 question. This is from Nosa in Texas and 04:59.440 --> 05:01.600 is saying, "Hey, can you explain more on 05:01.600 --> 05:04.000 the hot sauce?" 05:04.000 --> 05:06.080 This this is again a really fascinating 05:06.080 --> 05:07.919 thing. They send up five different types 05:07.919 --> 05:10.080 of hot sauces. And just consider that 05:10.080 --> 05:12.320 for a second. Uh sophisticated mission, 05:12.320 --> 05:15.360 limited space, they send hot sauce. And 05:15.360 --> 05:17.440 part of the reason why is they know in a 05:17.440 --> 05:20.240 microgravity environment, fluid shifts 05:20.240 --> 05:21.680 start to affect all these different 05:21.680 --> 05:23.600 parts of your body. They affect your 05:23.600 --> 05:25.360 face. You get puffy. They affect your 05:25.360 --> 05:27.600 vision. But they also affect your taste 05:27.600 --> 05:30.160 buds and your sinuses. So your taste 05:30.160 --> 05:32.479 buds make it harder to taste, but also 05:32.479 --> 05:36.000 you feel congested, harder to smell. 80% 05:36.000 --> 05:38.479 of taste comes from smell. They need to 05:38.479 --> 05:40.160 eat these astronauts. And one of the 05:40.160 --> 05:42.080 ways that they actually uh can help with 05:42.080 --> 05:44.080 that is to provide these different hot 05:44.080 --> 05:46.320 sauces. So that's where the hot sauces 05:46.320 --> 05:48.160 come from. I will point out, I think we 05:48.160 --> 05:51.680 have some video of this. Back in 2023, 05:51.680 --> 05:54.479 this particular crew uh did taste 05:54.479 --> 05:57.440 testing at NASA 3 years ago, picking 05:57.440 --> 05:59.039 foods that they like, picking foods that 05:59.039 --> 06:01.199 they would like to send up. That's the 06:01.199 --> 06:03.520 level of meticulous planning that goes 06:03.520 --> 06:05.440 into something like this. 06:05.440 --> 06:07.520 >> Pop quiz hot shot. Which ocean is home 06:07.520 --> 06:09.360 to the world's largest floating garbage 06:09.360 --> 06:12.160 patch? Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, or 06:12.160 --> 06:15.160 Southern? 06:19.120 --> 06:21.440 If you said Pacific, you sure know your 06:21.440 --> 06:23.520 stuff. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch 06:23.520 --> 06:25.120 is located in the ocean's northern 06:25.120 --> 06:27.680 region and contains roughly 1.8 trillion 06:27.680 --> 06:29.919 pieces of plastic waste, spanning an 06:29.919 --> 06:31.840 area nearly three times bigger than 06:31.840 --> 06:35.440 France. Almost 200 tons of plastic and 06:35.440 --> 06:37.280 debris are found in the Hawaiian waters 06:37.280 --> 06:39.199 of the Pacific Ocean. Researchers from 06:39.199 --> 06:41.919 Hawaiian Pacific University say plastic 06:41.919 --> 06:44.080 pollution in Hawaii is greater than any 06:44.080 --> 06:46.479 other US state. So they started 06:46.479 --> 06:48.240 experimenting with how they could turn 06:48.240 --> 06:50.720 trash into treasure using that harmful 06:50.720 --> 06:53.520 plastic waste to fix their local roads. 06:53.520 --> 06:56.160 >> And what I can say by driving on that 06:56.160 --> 06:59.120 road, it's holding up great. It feels 06:59.120 --> 07:02.800 like a normal, fairly new asphalt road 07:02.800 --> 07:05.680 without major cracks, no potholes. The 07:05.680 --> 07:08.000 project began in 2022, and researchers 07:08.000 --> 07:10.639 say early results are promising, but 07:10.639 --> 07:12.639 they're still testing to make sure those 07:12.639 --> 07:14.720 recycled plastic infused roads aren't 07:14.720 --> 07:17.599 releasing harmful chemicals. What do air 07:17.599 --> 07:19.440 traffic controllers and video game 07:19.440 --> 07:21.360 controllers have in common? Turns out 07:21.360 --> 07:23.120 quite a bit. The Federal Aviation 07:23.120 --> 07:25.039 Administration is facing a nationwide 07:25.039 --> 07:27.280 shortage of air traffic controllers, and 07:27.280 --> 07:29.120 they're looking to gamers to help fill 07:29.120 --> 07:32.639 the gap. R. Alexandra Scores has more on 07:32.639 --> 07:34.479 the campaign aimed at those with quick 07:34.479 --> 07:36.560 decision making, spatial awareness, and 07:36.560 --> 07:39.199 multitasking skills to help them level 07:39.199 --> 07:42.000 up their careers. Hi, Alexandra. Hi, 07:42.000 --> 07:44.720 Coy. Just like air traffic controllers, 07:44.720 --> 07:47.199 the DOT says video gamers think quickly 07:47.199 --> 07:49.520 and stay focused. The kind of traits an 07:49.520 --> 07:51.520 air traffic controller needs to keep the 07:51.520 --> 07:54.479 skies safe. This hiring push comes after 07:54.479 --> 07:56.800 several situations have left air traffic 07:56.800 --> 07:59.360 control with an ongoing shortage that 07:59.360 --> 08:02.479 has lasted for years. Currently, the FAA 08:02.479 --> 08:05.919 says it has 11,000 controllers working 08:05.919 --> 08:09.039 and 4,000 trainees in the pipeline. But 08:09.039 --> 08:11.440 after the pandemic several years ago, 08:11.440 --> 08:13.440 last year's government shutdown, and 08:13.440 --> 08:16.479 other factors, many controllers choose 08:16.479 --> 08:18.479 to leave the profession altogether 08:18.479 --> 08:21.520 during times of instability. For now, 08:21.520 --> 08:24.000 gamers are encouraged to level up their 08:24.000 --> 08:26.960 career, as the campaign says, and begin 08:26.960 --> 08:30.639 applying on April 17th. After 8,000 08:30.639 --> 08:33.200 applications are received by the FAA, 08:33.200 --> 08:35.360 the hiring window will close. Training 08:35.360 --> 08:37.279 will start after potential candidates 08:37.279 --> 08:39.200 have fulfilled all the requirements 08:39.200 --> 08:41.680 needed. Since the push began for more 08:41.680 --> 08:46.160 people, the DOT has hired 2,400 new 08:46.160 --> 08:49.120 controllers. This all comes as the FAA 08:49.120 --> 08:51.839 is trying to replace the decades old air 08:51.839 --> 08:54.000 traffic control system where floppy 08:54.000 --> 08:56.399 discs and paper strips are still used in 08:56.399 --> 09:00.040 facilities today. 09:03.279 --> 09:04.800 Today's story getting a 10 out of 10. 09:04.800 --> 09:07.120 The NHL's Utah Mammoth unveiling what 09:07.120 --> 09:09.200 just may be the coolest ride in sports. 09:09.200 --> 09:12.160 Meet Zamoth. The woolly mammoth-shaped 09:12.160 --> 09:14.800 Zamboni, complete with glowing eyes, 09:14.800 --> 09:16.720 massive tusks, enough style to make the 09:16.720 --> 09:19.200 ice age jealous. At the Delta Center in 09:19.200 --> 09:21.360 Salt Lake City, is this prehistoric 09:21.360 --> 09:23.040 inspired ice cleaning machine that's 09:23.040 --> 09:25.760 built from a real piece of history. The 09:25.760 --> 09:28.399 Zamboni used at the 2002 Winter 09:28.399 --> 09:30.800 Olympics. And here's the icing on the 09:30.800 --> 09:33.279 rink. Up to eight fans at a time can 09:33.279 --> 09:35.519 ride it while it smooths out the ice 09:35.519 --> 09:38.000 midame. The team mascot Tusky took the 09:38.000 --> 09:39.839 very first spin and it is clear this 09:39.839 --> 09:41.760 team is trunking in the right direction. 09:41.760 --> 09:44.160 Utah recently clinched its first ever 09:44.160 --> 09:47.440 Stanley Cup playoff birth. We have some 09:47.440 --> 09:49.279 mammothsiz shoutouts today. Our first 09:49.279 --> 09:52.560 one goes to Mrs. Crer, Mrs. Stanley, and 09:52.560 --> 09:55.519 Mr. Van Ginkles at Bridges Community Day 09:55.519 --> 09:57.279 School in San Juan Capistrano, 09:57.279 --> 09:59.279 California.
