stuff >> this morning, a crucial phone call at a crucial moment in israel's war against hamas. and the us support for that war that could be on shakier ground than it was just a few days ago. this will be the first call between president biden and israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu. since israeli forces killed seven aid workers from world central kitchen, white house sources say president biden is quote, angry and increasingly frustrated and is expected to make those feelings known to the prime minister a cnn analysis of the aftermath video found the attack may have consisted of multiple precision strikes. the team was traveling through a deconflicted zone in two armored cars and one unarmored vehicle. they had coordinated their movements with the idf. now, israel continues just declaim to strike was unintentional. this morning, rural central kitchen is calling for an independent

third party investigation into the strike, cnn's arlette sides is at the white house this morning or let we've been told the president is frustrated. what are you learning about how he will express that frustration in this phone call? >> well john president biden is expected to directly convey his frustration and anger to israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu when they speak in the coming hours, it really marks the latest tension point between the us and the israeli prime minister and present the frustration levels here at the white house have been growing with the way way that israel is conducting their operations, especially in the wake of that strike that. killed seven aid workers working with world central kitchen president biden, made that plainly clear at a statement are released earlier this week when he said he was outraged by that incident. now while the deaths of these workers aren't, is expected to be a large focus on the call the present is also expected to broaden out the discussion a bit as well to talk about protections for humanitarian aid workers, we

also have learned that biden administration officials have been stressing to israeli officials that there needs to be changes in the way that they transmit information about working with these aid workers as there station there in gaza and trying to deliver aid. the president is also expected to talk about the ongoing discussions to try to reach some type of temporary ceasefire in order to release hostages and get more humanitarian aid in as well as the concerns about a potential israeli operation in rafah. now ahead of this call between biden and netanyahu who defense secretary lloyd austin spoke with his israeli counterpart yesterday, a pentagon spokesperson said that in that call he expressed the outrage over the deaths of these aid workers, but also reinforced the concerns of the administration has relating to that potential operation in rafah. but even as we have seen, this rhetoric really a sharpen and heightened from the administration's since the death of these seven aid workers, what we have not seen as any type of shift in the

strategy and policy when it comes to us support for israel, especially when it comes to continuing to provide military aid. that is something a top spokesperson here at the white house spoke about yesterday. take a look. lesson. >> course. we want to see them do things differently to prevent civilian casualties. absolutely. and that's been an ongoing conversation that we've been having with them for many months. >> so while we >> make no bones about the fact that we have certain issues about some of the way things are being done. we also make no bones about the fact that israel is going to continue to have american support for the fight, that they're in to eliminate the threat from hamas now it all comes is president biden is also facing significant pressure here at home. he heard some of that firsthand when he hosted a muslim community leaders here at the white house on tuesday evening, people conveyed their frustrations of his approach, his handling specifically of the situation in gaza. and so

really this could mark it a major moment for president biden going forward, is there are questions of whether the us might change its steadfast a military support for israel whether this could serve as a turning point in the support for the war. but at this time so far, even as that rhetoric is heightening, even as the administration is expressing outrage, there has been no signs that a shift in policy is imminent. >> all right. i'll let signs at the white house watching things. they are very closely this morning, we'll check in with you again in a bit. >> also this morning, there's new reporting that israel has been using artificial intelligence to help identify bombing targets in gaza. the report from plus 972 magazine the insights six israeli intelligence officers, and finds that the ai tool was known to have a 10% error rate. the idf is responding now to questions about this report and this ai program this morning, cnn's jeremy diamond is in tel aviv. he's got much more on this for us. tell us more, jeremy well, it is a truly

stunning report from this is really plus 972 magazine noting that the israeli >> military is using artificial intelligence program known as lavender two to identify targets in gaza, effectively, drawing up cyl lists of suspected militants that are then used to carry out of the israeli military's bombing campaign in the gaza strip. the military according to this report, relied on this system to carry out strikes with the idf systematically attacking militants. in particular, in their homes at night, resulting in a significant civilian casualties. this is a section of that report which says the results as the sources testified, is that thousands of palestinians, most of them women and children, or people well who were not involved in the fighting or wiped out by israeli airstrikes especially during the first weeks of the war because of the ai's programs decisions. now, the israeli we military has responded and this is part of their statement. they say that contrary to the claims the idf

does not use an artificial intelligence system that identifies terrorist operatives or tries to predict whether a person is a terrorist. information systems are merely tools for analysts in the target identification process for each target idf procedures require conducting an individual we'll assessment of the anticipated military advantage and collateral damage expected. and so what you can hear in that is not denying that they are using the system, but claiming that there are human checks on this system. but one source told plus 972 that human personnel effectively served as a rubber stamp with oftentimes personnel the voting only about 20 seconds actually review the targets that were selected before authorizing the bombing. and as you noted, this system apparently has a 10% error rate, which obviously lee resulted in a civilian casualties. so a really remarkable report, particularly in the context of the gaza war,

but also really when you consider the future i'm sure of modern warfare potentially >> and jeremy, on the pressure that has been on benjamin netanyahu, some of his top war cabinet members are calling for early elections. now, what are you learning about this? >> yeah benny gantz, a member of the war cabinet, but who also happens to be benjamin netanyahu's chief political rival yesterday in a public statement calling for early elections. this is the first time that he has made this call since joining this unity government in the first days of the war. and he says that he would like to see elections by september ahead of the one-year anniversary three of those october 7 terrorist attacks, the one-year anniversary of israel's war in gaza he says that he is framing it in the context of maintaining in the unity that has existed in israel in the wake of those attacks on october 7. and that's particularly interesting because by being in

this unity government, he really has helped to give the aura of unity to benjamin netanyahu's government. and while his departure from this unity government wouldn't topple the government altogether it could potentially fracture that image of unity, which benjamin netanyahu very much needs in this moment >> jeremy diamond, it's good to see you. thank you so much, sarah. >> all right. still ahead. it's the one controversial issue former president trump hasn't been talking about much voters may finally here, drunk strategy on the issue of abortion rights also knew this morning, what really happened during the chaotic and deadly final days of us troops in afghanistan will bring you see an exclusive reporting. and researchers are racing to reach people trapped after the massive earthquake in taiwan. overnight rescue and the hundreds still stranded this morning. have all that >> if you work in spaceflight it's the worst thing that can

protected under the state constitution. cnn's alayna treene has the new reporting for us this morning. where is trump now where is he on this issue? he has been pretty quiet on what he thinks about what's going on, especially in this day. >> well, that's all right. and sara, i mean, donald trump is really told that the line on this issue for over a year now and throughout the campaign shelled despite many outside people, people like senator lindsey graham, his ally ralph reed, even kellyanne conway pressuring him for months to take a more firm issue and firms dance, i should say on this position, he's avoided doing so. and also at the advice of some of his advisers, but he's really done so far has been to try to have it both ways to take credit for what he argues was stacking the supreme court with conservative justices that paved the way for roe versus wade to be overturned. but then also both privately and publicly saying that he believes the issue of abortion is a political loser and especially in a general

election. but we have started to see him changes, tune a bit in recent weeks, he started floating a 15-week are 16 week ban. and has recently, as you mentioned, said that he plans to make a statement on the shortly take a listen to what he's been saying >> pretty soon. i'm going to be making a decision and i would like to see we could do that or all how i would like to see if we could make both sides happy. >> mr. president, do you support the six-week abortion ban that the florida supreme court justice next week, abortion now sarah, that last sound from him right there when he said he'll be making a statement next week on abortion from our reporting, many of donald trump's advisers told us that it caught them off guard. they were not anticipating that he would say that really it's because even though many people had been pressuring him to clarify his position on this once he became

the republican nominee, essentially, they argue that maybe the politics of this doesn't make sense to come out with during a general election when really it's an issue that republicans are very vulnerable on. but now it's really, he's putting his advisors on the clock and we do know that behind the scenes, his policy team has been quietly preparing a working on a policy memo led by his top policy aides to put something out on this and look, when i talked to donald trump's advisers, they essentially tell me that we wanted to avoid this issue. we know it's not great politics, but at some point, he was going to have to address this. and one of them even said, from a pr standpoint, it's better to do so earlier rather than later. so that's where donald trump is right now. and i do just want to be very clear. we still don't know exactly what he's going to say next week right before he had made that comment about making a statement next week, his advisers had essentially put out a statement saying his position is that he believes the issue should be decided by the states. and so i think there's still working out the details tells behind the scene

and we'll see that unfold in the days ahead. >> sara, i know how big of an issue this is a biden administration saying they believe they can capture florida in the vote because of this issue, we will have to wait and see what donald trump says about abortion. thank you so much, alayna treene, i know you will get the answer to that soon. john. >> i will also say for those still waiting for trump to releases tax rate returns sometimes he does say he's going to do something and then doesn't fall through $30 the biggest ist in history, f new s. the police hand have anxclusive new cnneporting testimony that the plans for the us withdrawal from tch this is the big dam. rom >> it's great to be here the music, the magic of madness it's time to dance >> while you can eat it

this effort for them. and then when they got there on the ground, john, what these folks describe was situations that we're changing minute by minute and that there was no plan that was an effective plan in place that they were following. they were essentially creating that at plan on the fly. i want to read to you a portion of the transcribed interview from james to heart, one of the state department officials who was asked, quote, where you executing office specific plan? and he answered by saying, i would say not really, we had to. i would say create from scratch tactical operations that would get our priority people into the airport. and then of course, he went on to add, we will routinely as effective as we could be under the circumstances. but those circumstances on the ground were just so challenging. they talk about having to work with the taliban and how hard that was. now, the state department is doubling down on the biden administration's decision to withdraw from afghanistan saying it was the right decision, it gave them more

ability to focus on other foreign policy issues. of course, ukraine and the middle east, or to that they name and i do want to take a step back here. chairman mecole, from the house foreign affairs committee, who is leading this investigation has been carrying out this investigation for more than two years now. and according to sources who are working on this investigation, what they're gonna do with all of these transcribed interviews is put together a report with the key takeaways. and when you talked to biden administration officials, they are very cognizant of the fact that there's a political motive here for congressman mecole and the republicans were leading this investigation. they want this issue to come to the fore around the time and with the november elections will have to watch and see if that report comes out around that time. so they can focus on one of the worst parts, one of the really damaging aspects of the biden administration's foreign policy legacy kylie atwood, part of the team that broke the story. thanks so much for sharing your reporting this morning. >> kate so the chance the chance that cancer cases could spike by more than 75% in the

number is projected to rise to 9.7 billion by 2050. so as we have more people in the world and more older people, because we're aging, we can expect to see more cancer. this report found that lung cancer was really the leading it cause of cancer death in 2022, and it causes the most cases as well. but when you look at data by country and by men versus women, you see interesting trends like on this map here, here's the cancer incidence among men around the world. you see prostate cancer in green is very prevalent. there's also lung cancer and blue flu, which we see a lot in european and asian countries. and then when you look at cancer incidence among women around the world, breast cancer is the most prevalent. you see breast cancer there and pink, but we also see cervical cancer in orange, which is prevalent in african countries. and then lung cancer in blue prevalent in asian countries. so, these trends are very, very important to follow. they show that

cancer isn't just a public health concern here in the united states, but all around the world and it's estimated that about one in five people will develop cancer in a lifetime. so these are numbers that are important to follow, especially as we think about what the future could look like. >> kate and looking in looking to the future. and with this new report from the american cancer society, what are the saying about you've got multiple types of cancer. you've got multiple countries. we're talking about different healthcare systems, but what people can do best to reduce their threat of cancer, right? >> well, the report does recommend interventions as a society like to backhoe control and improved screening, but individually, which we can each do something to reduce our cancer risk. it eating more healthy, getting regular exercise watching how much alcohol we drink and not smoking. these are all things that we can do to not just reduce our cancer risk, but to live healthier lives just in general, kate, jacqueline, thank you so much for bringing

that report out this morning. a lot to learn from it. thank you, sir all right >> in the coming hours, a critical phone call between president biden and israeli rarely prime minister benjamin netanyahu, the first since israeli forces killed seven humanitarian aid workers from world central kitchen joining us now is delaware senator chris. he served in the senate foreign relations and judiciary committees. he also is a national co-chair for the biden harris reelection campaign. and you just returned really recently, like just now from your trip, but six countries in africa. thank you so much for taking the time to be here. i want to start with this phone call. biden has said he is outraged on the attack, as is much of the world on the world central kitchen aid workers. he has this phone call with netanyahu today there is tension that has been there for some time what more can he say to try and change what is happening on the ground in gaza? what do you want him to say to bibi netanyahu? first, >> i think president biden is going to demand accountability.

a quick, a quick throw, an independent review of this particularly tragic incident. it look this war in gaza against hamas by israel has been going on since october 7 and thousands and thousands of civilians have been killed this has been a tragic war really from the beginning, because hamas has used palestinian civilians as shields and they have embedded themselves underneath mosques and hospitals. but this particular targeted killing, which is hard to explain or understand, brings into sharp focus the challenges of the ongoing campaign against hamas it's been months now that many of us have called on israel to allow humanitarian aid into gaza and to protect aid workers. these seven deaths are tragic, but there have been nearly 200 aid workers killed so far. the idf needs to provide direct communication real time on the ground. and there's so column in the new york times this morning by david sanger, peter

baker, suggesting the idf might accompany humanitarian aid deliveries otherwise, frankly, i don't see how we fend off famine in gaza, world central kitchen, world food programme an era on all the major non-profits that deliver food right now into gaza have stopped opera operations because they don't know whether they're staff will be the next to be killed in a friendly fire incident like this. yeah. we just heard from america. i'm one of their partner says they have to cease for right now because they're aid workers are simply not safe. i want to let you listen to what jose andres, the founder of the world central kitchen has said about the attack has pointed words with a >> but i know is that we were targeted deliberately non-stop until everybody was dead. these convoy that that cannot be that cannot be the role of an army that cannot be the role of an army. the highest hundreds of drawings above gaza israel's

minister of economy, is the one who has pushed back saying that claim is nonsense. but the world central kitchen founder makes a very compelling argument as to what happened here. and he says he doesn't trust the israeli military to do an independent, independent investigation. do you? >> i think we need to hear both from the idf and have an independent investigation by an organization outside the idf to review the materials, the details, the video of exactly what happened. jose has a close friend. he's well-respected and well regarded both sides of the aisle in the senate. in fact, he just briefed a dozen senators about two weeks ago. i spoke to him tuesday. he is grieving, he is angry. i understand and respect that emotion in that response to this tragic incident. but so many others are as well. when i was last in israel, now, two months ago, cindy mccain, who runs the world food program, who's a friend had said to me, are aid workers are getting

killed. you have to raise this. i raised this issue with benjamin netanyahu in-person, the prime minister. he said, we'll take care of it we understand it's an issue. it clearly hasn't been taken care of and look, president biden has conveyed again and again before any further large-scale military operations, there has to be humanitarian aid. there has to be a relocation of civilians. i suspect this call today will be a very important next step in the israel relationship. >> you've had words with benjamin netanyahu. the president has had worked with benjamin netanyahu at what point does the policy change? do you support a change in policy instead of a carrot instead of words, a stick saying to israel that in order to get military aid, you have to change your tax. when does that happen? >> i think we're at that point. i think we're at the point where president biden has said, and i have said and others have said, if benjamin netanyahu, prime minister were to order the idf into rafah at scale. they were to drop thousand pound bombs and send in a

battalion to go after hamas and make no provision for civilians or for humanitarian aid that i would vote to condition aid to israel. i've never said that before. i've never been here before. i've been a strong supporter of israel the whole time. i've served in congress we just appropriated another $3.3 of support in the last appropriations bill we did the challenge is to make it clear that we support the israeli people, that we want to and will continue to have a strong and close relationship with israel. but that the tactics hi, which the current prime minister is making these decisions don't reflect the best values of israel or the united states. >> so things have gotten so bad for the first time you were saying yes, we will put conditions on military aid. >> i'm speaking for >> myself, for yourself, but >> if they continue with large-scale military operations in rafah without making any provision for civilians. now to continue fighting hamas taking targeted raids, small

counterterrorism are special forces raids. i think that's an acceptable part of continuing their campaign against hamas. >> but the idf can bring humanitarian relief in through the north of gaza. they just demonstrated this to three weeks ago by escorting convoys of trucks through a new opening and the very northern security perimeter of gaza, it is the far north of gaza where the idf has the most control, where there's the most famine and there is the most urgency. i think we can move forward if we see real seriousness about addressing the humanitarian crisis in gaza, as well as the security crisis that israel continues to face. >> famine is happening. people are starving senator. thank you so much for coming in. i know you're tired after six country trip and al-furqan, really appreciate your time >> this morning. a statue unveiled on the sidelines of the world's greatest race, which ends in the world's greatest city. it commemorates spencer, the golden retriever,

>> if you work in spaceflight, this is the worst possible thing that can ever happen >> my dad died doing what he loved space shuttle columbia, the final flight premieres sunday at nine on cnn new this morning, a big legal loss for donald trump, the new york judge, presiding over trump's criminal hush money trial rejected >> the former president's last-ditch bid to delay that trial. the trial then we'll begin jury selection. just 11 days from now on april 15th, it had already been pushed back from martin trump wanted to postpone it again until after the supreme court rules on his presidential immunity claim. cnn's katelyn polantz is joining me now. katelyn, this thing is going forward sarah certainly looks like it. donald trump is making a lot of attempts to try and delay that trial to get jury selection, not to start on april 15th as scheduled, but the judge is not buying it there's another

thing happening here too, in this case, in this leadup to trial, it's the table setting of how this is going to work. once a jury is seated and the prosecutors are going to be able to present their evidence in the hush money case in this latest situation that the judge ruled against donald trump on his request was to delay things because the supreme court is looking at presidential immunity. donald trump's attorneys were telling judge merchan in this case in new york, nothing that trump said while he was president should be able to come into the presentation prosecutors make, including tweets. they can't even use his tweets before the jury. the judge says, this was way to wait for you to be bringing this up asking for this in march to try and cut it out out of the trial. but i'm going to not allow us to delay the trial. however, the judge said to donald trump's attorneys, you can bring this up during the trial if there is something that prosecutors want to present, that something trump said while he was

president sure. flag it for me at that time. that's the table setting going on. >> there's going going to be other rowling's as well out there because donald trump's attorneys are trying other ways to delay this case. one of them is they're asking him to delay because of pretrial publicity. we don't have a ruling on that yet from judge merchan, although he had shot down requests like this in the past and the da's office in new york says, it is perverse that donald trump thinks that this case should be delayed because of pre pretrial publicity. he's the one causing all of the pretrial publicity. sarah. >> yeah. up until now, delay. delay. delay has worked for the team trump not this time, perhaps. all right. thank you so much, kaitlan. appreciate it, but john. >> well, this now, elliott william cnn legal analyst and former federal prosecutor council. let me read you. part of what judge merchan wrote because i think there's some frustration be in here. he said the fact that the defendant waited until amir 17 days prior to the scheduled trial date of

march 25, the file a motion raises real questions about the sincerity and actual purpose of the motion, the circumstances viewed as a whole test this court's credulity meow. i mean, that is pretty harsh language from a judge in any context, but he's got a point, john, and just look at the opportunity. he's that the former president's team probably had to raise these motions. they could have done so back in february when the supreme court took the case back in october, when they briefed the issue for the first time and then or back in may 2023, the first time it came up when they tried to remove the case to federal court. this issue of immunity has been out there for for nearly a year at this point, yet it's only on the eve of trial of the trump team chose to move forward. so it's fair for the judge to say, i think you're trying to okey-dokey me with the timeline here and we're just not going to do that. he isn't it? no. >> normal slash good lawyering to file as many motions to delay for the trial?

>> yes and no. it has good lawyering to protect a defendant's rights and that's really important point, john, in any criminal case, a defendant has a right to slow down a trial, to delay, make sure that all of his rights are protected. and frankly, if you care about seeing someone convicted, you want to have that defendant get his rights to have his day in court because you can get a conviction tossed out later if he didn't so yes, there's a space for that, but just look at the calendar and the timing and it's, you know, it's a long part of a pattern. >> and when you push the judge to the point where he has to say it has a meow like maybe you've gone too far. >> maybe, i mean, again, there are judges. judges are just like all of us. sometimes they get annoyed, sometimes they don't. but clearly this is a point at which the judge was frustrated with pete with the attorney. there's a little bit of a tale of two judges. yeah. going on right now, the job to the new york criminal case, who is not having any of the delay tactics and the judge in the mar-a-lago documents case, aileen cannon, who whether or not she's buying into little delay tactics may be part of the delays situation. right now

to the point where there are those who were speculating that some of her decisions might not just be appealed, but there's a possibility she could be removed from the case. i want to play some sound from ty cobb, not the baseball player that would be a good that'll be a good booking though. but from the lawyer who did represent donald trump for a while, who's, on with aaron last night. listen you know yes, she may be in competent, but at this stage of the game the hurrying competence is so gross that i think it clearly creates the perception of impartiality partiality, and her attempt to put her thumb on the scale. so i think that should disqualify yeah. >> so i think the fact that a judge shubi or moved from a case and can be or will be removed from the case are two very different things. now, merely a judge getting it wrong isn't going to be sufficient to get a judge kicked off. judges get it wrong, and that's why we have appeals courts to sort of challenge their decisions. now, with the justice barbara did something

really, really smart yesterday and saying, you have to roll on this motion before the juries and panel. if not, we lose our right to appeal or will, and then we'll move to get you kicked off. why they did that is that judges have an obligation to rule on anything that could go away once a trial starts. so there's are pushing are invading her. and if she fails to do that, i don't see how how they don't at least try to get her kicked off. >> al awda rooms. great to see you in-person. go. yeah. i was going to say better that you didn't make us, but i knew that was coming in the red sox well our winning as well. so i'll allow it >> okay. >> all right. so right now, more than 600 people are still stranded in eastern taiwan after that seven magnitude earthquake which hit yesterday morning, ten people we've now learned are reported to be dead more than 1,000 people have been wounded and dozens were rescued overnight thing thankfully, including worker stranded and inquiry. we're going to show you some video because we have video of what the query looked like before the rescue. >> cnn's i've been >> watson is in taiwan for us.

ivan, what are you seeing? >> right? well, kate, i'm in this small city called hualien. this is the epicenter of wednesday, wednesday mornings, 7.4 magnitude earthquake. so here we have a? pretty stark example of the sheer power of that earthquake which has been described as the most powerful earthquake to hit taiwan in 25 years. this building, a residential building, maybe six stories, leaning precariously. we saw social media videos of firefighters rescued residents by ladder from this building. and it is one of several that are going to be demolished here in the city as a result of this earthquake, which has been deadly and has wounded more than 1,000 people. but i do want to share with you another side of the city as we pan down the street away from that precariously leaning building,

you can see the lights of hualien lit up on the night of a holiday here many of the shops and restaurants are open right now this is a town that lies on a fault line that is very accustomed to earthquakes, as is all of taiwan and people get over this rather quickly. not only that, look at the buildings around here. they look very much structurally sound. you have to go a long way around this town to find buildings like this that are so badly damaged. now the situation in the mountains, the enormous mountains around here, is very different. for example, a tenth victim, his body was found today. that's a taiwanese tourist in a national park about an hour's drive from here. and that's where we saw those massive landslides entire faces of mountains coming down. and that's where the emergency workers are trying come to reach scores of people, hundreds of people that they still cannot reach because of

these obstructions. take a listen to what one eyewitness had to say about what these rockfalls looked and felt like typo. >> there were too many rocks, like bullets falling from above. we didn't know where to run. we're all scared so terrifying scenes there, i just met the mayor of this city of hualien. he was on crutches, he was hit by falling furniture in his home on wednesday morning but he attributes the kind of training that residents of the city get as they grow up at school of how to deal with earth the quake's for the relatively low death toll considering the sheer power of the earthquake that struck the city just yesterday morning. back to you yeah. it's almost it's almost hard to wrap your mind >> around the contrast in the images that you're able to show us here. but it's great, glad you're there, ivan. thank you so much. we're going to continue covering this. john. all right. this morning we are learning what nasa has planned

for the epic total solar eclipse on monday. well, most of us might be contentious to look at it nasa is going to shoot rockets at it sort of see it as bill, we're is your bill. why are they trying to shoot down the eclipse? well, there is that wrong? i had a little bit wrong. okay. let me set you straight. actually, assigns can learn so much during these events most famously, albert einstein in 1916 floated a theory that gravity is the result of time and space bending, sort of like the fabric of the universe, like a bowling ball on a trampoline. and you'd be able to prove this by planets or stars being in the wrong place different perspective, changing three years later during the 1919 eclipse, they prove the theory of relativity and these days, scientists are most obsessed with the corona, the mexican beer, or the virus, but the corona is the atmosphere of the sun, which is 10 millions of degrees freeze hotter than the actual surface of the sun. and one of the enduring mysteries is why as the sun

gets hotter and cooler over these 11 year cycle's why that maintains a consistent temperature. so they're going to fly these rockets wb-57, or i'm sorry, not rockets, airplanes, wb-57, high-flying airplanes. they go to 60,000 feet twice as high as your flight to grandma's house. and they're going to take pictures of the corona and measure it and do this and fly in the path of the eclipse. they can stay up there for a lot longer and gather a lot more information mission. but then you also need an instrument that's between the airplanes and satellites to study the ionosphere. and that is the layer that protects us from the vacuum of deep space. it's these charged particles that protect us and contain earth's livable habitat. >> and >> that fluctuates as the sun goes around and. the earth rotates, it gets stronger during the day and then later at night. and now with the eclipse, they can send these rockets up before, during and after the eclipse to measure how those charged particles

fluctuate, how they affect communication on earth between radio transmissions satellites, there's a bunch of citizen science going on with ham radio operators. so it is sending pings and then recording how long it takes to hit a certain area and come back and are balloon experiments happening in colorado? satellite stuff everywhere? soh atteion the science world paid to what'happening dung it is incrediblyool chances that only come once a generatn or so. and you make it sound so much cooler than my dumb joke thank to have you here >> you guys are talking about relativity and the corona, which i you know, which one i thought it was and i'm just focused on my chances to win powerball. so that's where we are today. >> i don't know. that's all i'm gonna say. okay. but we're going to continue on this. we have been seeing severe weather across the country i'll week and now there are concerns. the forecast here down on earth, not in the stratosphere is, could actually be a problem for the much-anticipated solar eclie.
