WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:11.519 [Music] 00:11.519 --> 00:13.679 Hello everyone, I'm Ky Wire. Welcome to 00:13.679 --> 00:15.679 CNN 10. Hope you're having an awesome 00:15.679 --> 00:17.520 day so far. I've got your news for you 00:17.520 --> 00:19.359 this Tuesday, August 12th. Let's make 00:19.359 --> 00:21.199 this a teacher time Tuesday. All those 00:21.199 --> 00:23.439 out there inspiring and informing us at 00:23.439 --> 00:25.199 some point today, show a teacher some 00:25.199 --> 00:26.960 love. Give a handshake, high five, or 00:26.960 --> 00:29.119 fist bump. Let them know I see you. 00:29.119 --> 00:31.359 Without further ado, your news starts 00:31.359 --> 00:33.360 now. You've probably heard of tractor 00:33.360 --> 00:35.200 beams, the science fiction technology 00:35.200 --> 00:37.280 scene in everything from comic books to 00:37.280 --> 00:39.760 Star Wars. Once one gets a hold of you, 00:39.760 --> 00:41.920 it's not letting go. 00:41.920 --> 00:44.559 >> Why are we still moving towards it? 00:44.559 --> 00:45.600 >> It's pulling us in. 00:45.600 --> 00:46.879 >> There's got to be something you can do. 00:46.879 --> 00:48.160 >> There's nothing I can do about it, kid. 00:48.160 --> 00:49.360 I'm full power. I'm going to have it 00:49.360 --> 00:50.879 shut down. They're not going to get me 00:50.879 --> 00:53.039 without a fight. Now, what if I told you 00:53.039 --> 00:55.120 this kind of tech is not only closer to 00:55.120 --> 00:56.559 being real than you might think, but 00:56.559 --> 00:58.879 it's already being used to help patrol 00:58.879 --> 01:01.600 the skies for things like drones. That's 01:01.600 --> 01:03.680 the case for one company who says their 01:03.680 --> 01:06.080 new high-tech system can help hunt down 01:06.080 --> 01:08.880 unauthorized drones, take them over, 01:08.880 --> 01:11.040 even force them to land. Our Pete Mund 01:11.040 --> 01:12.880 team got an uplose look at how the 01:12.880 --> 01:15.439 system could help keep the sky safe over 01:15.439 --> 01:17.520 major events like the upcoming World 01:17.520 --> 01:18.560 Cup. 01:18.560 --> 01:19.920 >> You can launch. 01:19.920 --> 01:22.320 >> Copy. This is what it looks like when 01:22.320 --> 01:24.400 drones are flying where they shouldn't 01:24.400 --> 01:26.479 and are about to be taken over. This 01:26.479 --> 01:28.799 demonstration by Israeli company Defense 01:28.799 --> 01:31.439 Solutions comes as drones are taking off 01:31.439 --> 01:33.200 as a tool of war. 01:33.200 --> 01:34.960 >> They are threat for airports. They are 01:34.960 --> 01:36.799 threat for critical infrastructure. 01:36.799 --> 01:39.119 >> CEO Zohar Halachmi says even 01:39.119 --> 01:41.600 offthe-shelf drones can now be easily 01:41.600 --> 01:44.000 outfitted to drop grenades or carry 01:44.000 --> 01:46.159 explosives like during the Ukrainian 01:46.159 --> 01:48.720 attack on Russian air bases in June. It 01:48.720 --> 01:50.720 is the latest concern of lawmakers on 01:50.720 --> 01:52.479 Capitol Hill as they're calling for 01:52.479 --> 01:54.079 greater coordination from federal 01:54.079 --> 01:56.560 agencies to protect large events like 01:56.560 --> 01:59.840 the 2026 World Cup and 2028 Olympics in 01:59.840 --> 02:00.719 Los Angeles. 02:00.719 --> 02:03.360 >> With minimal skill, bad actors can use 02:03.360 --> 02:06.479 these drones to launch attacks or create 02:06.479 --> 02:07.200 chaos. 02:07.200 --> 02:09.280 >> Potential for a coordinated drone attack 02:09.280 --> 02:11.760 on our in an airport, seapport or mass 02:11.760 --> 02:13.599 gathering is a credible and growing 02:13.599 --> 02:14.160 threat 02:14.160 --> 02:16.640 >> here. defense system uses an antenna to 02:16.640 --> 02:18.959 detect radio signals emitted by drones 02:18.959 --> 02:21.120 from the moment they take off, feeding 02:21.120 --> 02:23.040 information back to a command center in 02:23.040 --> 02:25.440 real time. You essentially just create 02:25.440 --> 02:27.760 your own no drone zone. 02:27.760 --> 02:29.280 >> Correct. It's a no-fly zone. 02:29.280 --> 02:31.280 >> First, a demonstration of a lone, 02:31.280 --> 02:33.599 unfriendly drone flying into our 02:33.599 --> 02:36.000 airspace. The system detects the drone, 02:36.000 --> 02:37.920 then with the push of a button takes 02:37.920 --> 02:40.480 control, sending the drone to land in a 02:40.480 --> 02:42.000 predetermined spot. 02:42.000 --> 02:44.160 >> So, this is our unfriendly drone here. 02:44.160 --> 02:46.400 Next, a demonstration of multiple 02:46.400 --> 02:48.959 hostile drones in the air at one time. 02:48.959 --> 02:51.040 What's called a drone swarm. 02:51.040 --> 02:53.120 >> It looks like they're all coming towards 02:53.120 --> 02:53.840 us now. 02:53.840 --> 02:56.000 >> Once again, the system pulls the drones 02:56.000 --> 02:58.160 into its metaphorical tractor beam, 02:58.160 --> 03:00.319 setting them down in a safe zone and 03:00.319 --> 03:02.159 providing the location of the drone 03:02.159 --> 03:04.879 operator whose controls have gone dark. 03:04.879 --> 03:06.560 >> The pilot has no idea that we're doing 03:06.560 --> 03:08.720 this. Defense says this is based on the 03:08.720 --> 03:10.879 science of attacking computer viruses, 03:10.879 --> 03:13.440 filtering out good and legal drone users 03:13.440 --> 03:15.599 from malicious ones. Even the Federal 03:15.599 --> 03:17.440 Aviation Administration has tried the 03:17.440 --> 03:19.599 system and similar technology from other 03:19.599 --> 03:21.680 companies during a series of tests this 03:21.680 --> 03:24.480 spring. A new tropical storm could be 03:24.480 --> 03:26.560 poised to become the first hurricane of 03:26.560 --> 03:28.400 the Atlantic season by as soon as 03:28.400 --> 03:30.879 tomorrow. Tropical storm Aaron formed 03:30.879 --> 03:33.120 earlier this week just west of Africa's 03:33.120 --> 03:35.760 Cabo Verde Islands. As of Monday, the 03:35.760 --> 03:38.959 storm had sustained winds of 45 mph and 03:38.959 --> 03:41.200 was heading west. It's forecasted to 03:41.200 --> 03:42.879 track over the Atlantic's main 03:42.879 --> 03:44.879 development region, a stretch of warm 03:44.879 --> 03:47.120 water from Africa to the Caribbean that 03:47.120 --> 03:49.760 helps storms intensify. It's too early 03:49.760 --> 03:52.239 to know exactly how big of a threat 03:52.239 --> 03:54.239 Aaron could be. But scientists say 03:54.239 --> 03:56.319 nearrecord temperatures in the western 03:56.319 --> 03:58.560 Atlantic may help the storm rapidly 03:58.560 --> 04:00.959 strengthen into at least a category 3 04:00.959 --> 04:03.680 hurricane by this weekend. Calling all 04:03.680 --> 04:05.840 stargazers. Tonight marks the peak of 04:05.840 --> 04:07.840 the year's most popular meteor shower, 04:07.840 --> 04:10.319 the Perciad's meteor shower. But you may 04:10.319 --> 04:12.319 have a hard time seeing it. The culprit, 04:12.319 --> 04:14.319 a full moon. Light from our lunar 04:14.319 --> 04:16.160 neighbor is expected to wash out the 04:16.160 --> 04:17.840 darkness, making it tougher to see 04:17.840 --> 04:19.919 meteors as they shoot through the sky at 04:19.919 --> 04:23.199 37 m per second. Still want to give it a 04:23.199 --> 04:25.440 shot? Scientists say your best bet is 04:25.440 --> 04:27.280 between 1000 p.m. and the hours just 04:27.280 --> 04:29.440 before dawn. You can see the meteors 04:29.440 --> 04:31.199 with the naked eye, but you want to 04:31.199 --> 04:33.199 bring a comfy chair and some patience. 04:33.199 --> 04:35.520 While you may be able to see up to 25 04:35.520 --> 04:38.000 meteors per hour, there's no guarantee. 04:38.000 --> 04:40.400 And if you miss out, don't worry. NASA 04:40.400 --> 04:42.080 says another famous shower, the 04:42.080 --> 04:44.400 Geminids, will feature moon-free viewing 04:44.400 --> 04:47.360 in December. 04:47.360 --> 04:49.759 Pquiz hot shot. Which country is home to 04:49.759 --> 04:51.360 the world's tallest waterfall? 04:51.360 --> 04:53.520 Venezuela, United States, Switzerland, 04:53.520 --> 04:57.160 or Costa Rica? 05:00.560 --> 05:03.120 Angel Falls in Venezuela is the world's 05:03.120 --> 05:04.560 tallest waterfall, plunging 05:04.560 --> 05:07.680 approximately 3,212 ft. That's about 05:07.680 --> 05:09.520 twice as high as the Empire State 05:09.520 --> 05:11.840 Building. Do not try this at home. 05:11.840 --> 05:13.840 Thrill seekers in southeastern Europe 05:13.840 --> 05:15.440 got quite the adrenaline rush over the 05:15.440 --> 05:17.840 weekend. Divers from around the world 05:17.840 --> 05:20.320 gathered in Bosnia and Herzaggavina this 05:20.320 --> 05:22.720 weekend for the International Waterfall 05:22.720 --> 05:25.120 Jumps Competition. Yeah, there is such a 05:25.120 --> 05:27.199 thing. If the views aren't spectacular 05:27.199 --> 05:30.160 enough, just look at these dives. The 16 05:30.160 --> 05:32.240 daredevils jumped off of a waterfall 05:32.240 --> 05:34.560 that was the height of about a six-story 05:34.560 --> 05:36.240 building. Got to know I've been doing 05:36.240 --> 05:38.320 that professional for 2 years now. I've 05:38.320 --> 05:40.560 been training 15 years of diving. And 05:40.560 --> 05:41.840 I've been traveling all around the 05:41.840 --> 05:43.840 world, Japan, Australia, America, 05:43.840 --> 05:45.759 everywhere. And this is the most 05:45.759 --> 05:48.080 outstanding spot I've ever been. 05:48.080 --> 05:50.560 >> Scoring focused on the divers's swallow 05:50.560 --> 05:53.280 form and posture throughout each jump. 05:53.280 --> 05:54.960 And although professional divers 05:54.960 --> 05:57.039 traveled from all across the globe, a 05:57.039 --> 05:59.520 native Bosnian took home the trophy this 05:59.520 --> 06:02.320 year. Congrats. The White House's most 06:02.320 --> 06:04.240 storied green space has a brand new 06:04.240 --> 06:06.560 look. The iconic Rose Garden, which has 06:06.560 --> 06:08.560 hosted everything from diplomats to 06:08.560 --> 06:10.639 dinner parties, now features a large 06:10.639 --> 06:13.199 patio. The decision to swap the lawn for 06:13.199 --> 06:15.360 pavers, has been a bit polarizing, but 06:15.360 --> 06:17.120 it's far from the first time the space 06:17.120 --> 06:19.520 has gotten a facelift. Our Tom Foreman 06:19.520 --> 06:21.360 has a look back at some of the biggest 06:21.360 --> 06:24.560 changes through the years. 06:24.880 --> 06:26.960 For more than a century, the legendary 06:26.960 --> 06:29.520 spot has hosted history. John Kennedy 06:29.520 --> 06:31.280 welcomed astronauts here after they 06:31.280 --> 06:33.680 returned to Earth. Let me tell you that 06:33.680 --> 06:35.440 you've given the United States a great 06:35.440 --> 06:37.280 day and a great lift. 06:37.280 --> 06:39.360 >> Richard Nixon launched his daughter into 06:39.360 --> 06:42.080 marriage in the garden. George HW Bush 06:42.080 --> 06:44.880 welcomed royalty from afar. Bill Clinton 06:44.880 --> 06:47.360 as a young visitor met President Kennedy 06:47.360 --> 06:49.680 there and apologized for some of his 06:49.680 --> 06:52.319 actions during his presidency near the 06:52.319 --> 06:52.960 same spot 06:52.960 --> 06:55.680 >> that I am profoundly sorry. 06:55.680 --> 06:58.400 >> Pronouncements, parties, and pardons 06:58.400 --> 07:00.880 have all had moments in the garden. 07:00.880 --> 07:05.599 >> I hereby grant you a full pardon. 07:05.599 --> 07:08.240 >> But change has come too. From Edith 07:08.240 --> 07:10.479 Roosevelt's colonial garden in the early 07:10.479 --> 07:13.280 1900s to Jackie Kennedy's update in the 07:13.280 --> 07:15.120 early 1960s, 07:15.120 --> 07:17.199 which established the modern look of the 07:17.199 --> 07:19.919 Rose Garden to Melania Trump's try just 07:19.919 --> 07:22.960 a few years ago. By comparison, that was 07:22.960 --> 07:25.599 a minor remake, but it still triggered 07:25.599 --> 07:28.080 outraged opposition and left the first 07:28.080 --> 07:30.880 lady feeling bruised by the backlash, 07:30.880 --> 07:33.919 asking people to accept the very act of 07:33.919 --> 07:36.880 planting a garden involves hard work and 07:36.880 --> 07:39.599 hope in the possibility of a bright 07:39.599 --> 07:41.840 future. 07:41.840 --> 07:45.510 [Applause] 07:45.510 --> 07:46.639 [Music] 07:46.639 --> 07:48.400 Today's story getting a 10 out of 10. A 07:48.400 --> 07:50.160 phenomenal feat that's a testament to 07:50.160 --> 07:52.720 putting mind over Matterhorn. Sam 07:52.720 --> 07:55.199 Evermore is now the youngest American 07:55.199 --> 07:57.199 ever to summit the world famous 07:57.199 --> 08:00.080 Matterhorn. At just 11 years old, an 08:00.080 --> 08:02.240 iconic peak sitting at top the Alps 08:02.240 --> 08:04.639 between Italy and Switzerland, it is one 08:04.639 --> 08:06.080 of the tallest mountains in all of 08:06.080 --> 08:08.960 Europe. Scaling the nearly 15,000 ft 08:08.960 --> 08:11.360 summit is a tall order for even the most 08:11.360 --> 08:13.440 experienced climbers. But Sam didn't 08:13.440 --> 08:16.160 just climb it, he crushed it. He reached 08:16.160 --> 08:18.240 the peak in a record time of just 3 08:18.240 --> 08:20.879 hours and 45 minutes. 08:20.879 --> 08:22.560 >> You just start hiking and then you just 08:22.560 --> 08:25.199 can't stop. 08:25.199 --> 08:27.360 >> Sam was just like a machine. He didn't 08:27.360 --> 08:30.240 stop. He was just moving the whole way. 08:30.240 --> 08:33.919 And it's a very difficult and technical 08:33.919 --> 08:36.000 and even dangerous mountain. And so 08:36.000 --> 08:38.719 there's several disciplines that Sam has 08:38.719 --> 08:39.919 had to learn. 08:39.919 --> 08:42.479 >> Sam and his dad say this feat was years 08:42.479 --> 08:44.159 in the making. and they were forced to 08:44.159 --> 08:46.240 turn around just 1,200 f feet from the 08:46.240 --> 08:48.640 top last year before giving another go 08:48.640 --> 08:50.560 this time. And Sam, well, he's no 08:50.560 --> 08:52.080 stranger to mountains. He previously 08:52.080 --> 08:54.000 made headlines for climbing Yose 08:54.000 --> 08:56.800 National Parks El Capitan at just 8 08:56.800 --> 08:59.519 years old. Sam's a superstar and so are 08:59.519 --> 09:01.600 you. Some terrific Tuesday shoutouts 09:01.600 --> 09:04.480 today. First one, Miss Gorvine at Red 09:04.480 --> 09:06.800 Oak Elementary School in Highland Park, 09:06.800 --> 09:10.160 Illinois. Los fly rockets fly. 09:10.160 --> 09:12.399 Thank you for this custom shirt. You all 09:12.399 --> 09:15.120 signed it. We love CNN 10. We love you, 09:15.120 --> 09:17.680 too. And we heard that you make your own 09:17.680 --> 09:20.320 CNN 10 broadcast as a class assignment. 09:20.320 --> 09:22.560 Got to see that. And from our YouTube 09:22.560 --> 09:24.959 channel, this shout out goes to the 09:24.959 --> 09:26.640 Hammond Secondary School in Hammond, 09:26.640 --> 09:29.200 Oklahoma. Go Warriors, rise up.
