and nasa is sending 4 people on a mission to mars, but they won't be visiting the red planet. instead, they'll be spending one year at the johnson space center in the mars habitat. you can eat sleep and exercise just as if they were in outer space. the simulation habitat is about the size of the 3 to 4 bedroom house. nasa is not going to be able to simulate mars gravity. they have, though, come up with a solution. >> so what we've created here a space where we can simulate a virtual reality space walks

are mars walks also simulate a variety of expect a task that we might see on mars such as geology, removing dust from your space suit or solar panels to repairing the habitat. >> i think i already saw this isn't the movie with matt damon did. did they grow potatoes? do you see movie, is this. what they use for the for crew guys are going to be in it that says they're going to be limited communications. a family and friends just like matt damon. this is like the real-life version. and i saw that workout. i give you more comfortable at this version, though, that that like a cozy here. but a little on the purse if you want to get back outside today, staying here on earth, this is what you've got to be greeted by beautiful, clear skies. love it. >> another beautiful day. and this i'm actually a little better than yesterday. even a little less cool and a little less windy. so we're adding in some more favorable things today to look forward to as you get outside. we have seen

this dip in the jet stream cooling things off the past several days. wind speeds have increased partly because of it, but now we're going to be in the midst of some really clear dry conditions and increasingly common to the weekend, too. as we move into the afternoon today, increasingly com into tomorrow morning. you may notice a few spots of fog near the coast, the santa clara valley and up along 101, in sonoma county that will burn up really quick. and then it's right back to the sunshine a bit more fog into saturday start but then clearing out as well towards saturday into the afternoon future cast of wind showing still breezy conditions into the delta solano, sonoma and napa county still windy. most of the rest of us have seen conditions calming down a bit of a nice note. there. not as windy at the coastline today as we move into tomorrow should be even calmer yet across the bay area. so a lot to look forward to there. still under a high wind watch for solano county that's set to expire here very shortly. just a couple of hours. temps today will be in the upper 50's to low to mid 60's for the most part, not quite as chilly as yesterday. not quite as windy as

yesterday either. so as i mentioned, we're just getting a little bit more improved into your thursday. the weekend looks even better yet. mid 60's for the south bay's daytime highs today as will also be the case for most of the east bay. some of our warmest spots will be walnut creek and concord, antioch, in pittsburgh, as well as vacaville fairfield over to santa rosa. all at 68 degrees tomorrow, saturday and sunday, some low 70's inland just in time for the weekend. not as warm as last weekend, but still pretty nice. next week. we cool things right back down into the low 60's. as for a bridge is still a bit of a back up there at the bay bridge. it's been a little bit of a slow or go. metering lights just turned off, though. so that backup is definitely loosening. and your drive time is improving. one of the roughest bridges has been the san mateo bridge still just barely crawling there as you're heading westbound, nothing close to the limit does look like we have a tow truck trying to make its way across. we saw those bright lights on that tow truck just a second ago. as for the richmond center fell bridge, you're fine. and the golden gate bridge doing okay as well. daria.

>> all right. it's 9.18, right now. and we're continuing our coverage now on the house. democrats calling for u.s.. senator dianne feinstein to resign. and because of that, her saying she wants to be replaced temporarily anyway on the judiciary committee kron four's political analyst michael yaki joins us to talk more about what's really going on here. good morning, michael. >> we're going i just want to say that that mars simulation seems like a great place think the moon landing in 1916, >> don't open that all right. let's let's let's get to the real like what's really going on with this die 5 thing because is it remarkable that democrats would call for the resignation? the early resignation of, you know, the oldest senator and someone who's already said she's going retire. and in 2024. >> they've been doing for quite some of these folks come in quite some time. i think think really are. and this is

the person who is after all the cars moving from south. is the co-chair of congresswoman barbara lee are run for the u.s. some. obviously has a vested stake in it because governor newsom has said if senator feinstein were to resign early, he would black woman to that position. obviously barber. lisa, we fit that bill protectively. so you have to put that into perspective. i think the bigger issue is are the issues that grays by not kind of a others on progressive left, which is. she's not sharing its the committee that approves and trying to make up for the fact that during the trump years it was just it's the of right-wing conservative. lawyers judges out there as he was like for the one you just of course, people, for these are the things that that they're trying to counteract and not having in moos. these counties

are spotlight with one difference, right? so if you want democrat deadlocked, you can move things forward. now, i think that what senator feinstein did last night and actually kind of believe of this. i'm on truck. sure, because he's from seems earlier if you're going to so an important committee, they should have a process in place where you can appoint a temporary replacement during that period of time, which is what they're going to be doing with senator feinstein now the republicans could object. it would require a 60 a 60 vote. aye feeling there enough republicans to have our i would understand the frailties of of life and you thing about senate, you hear a lot of people getting who are sick your out for extended periods of time. you know, this is something where we probably should have prepared for this a long time ago. and it's unfortunate that senator finds shingles, which as we all know, you're not one you would not wish on your worst enemy. think it's that it's that kind

of illness. so i think that they're they're going to remedy that situation. hopefully calm down what it really only 2 voices in congress and then answering echo to the group progressive left that are educating for senator feinstein to leave i mean, she's 89 years old. it's got to be difficult to battle chang gulls, you know, let alone at that age. and yes, she's been missing. >> votes which >> you would think, though they would be doing this maneuvering behind the scenes and not just out in public because that doesn't help the democratic party as a whole either. does it? >> really it's not a it's not a great look. the fact is, if you're sick, you're sick. it's oneoof those things. if you're senator president, if you're just you know, you're working at retail place. you don't want people to say when you're sick out your get rid of this person. you know, we've got to we've got to move out. it's not it's not that kind of thing. and this is someone who really i know it's over states. and it was interesting, too, the right to just can. and i think that you

made the wise decision with trucks. you want to get a replacement. you can it because that is really the locus of where are you have kamala harris still to help breaking tie. vote there. but there are issues that go beyond dianne feinstein becomes the operation of the u.s. senate and blame it all on her. the sighting on her. i think it's just purely. political in the sense out again, roe conn a co-chair of congressman barr released campaign. yeah, i'm wondering, quite frankly, had as much they admired and respect comes shortly what she's thinking about, what real kind of just yet, because i think that that actually may not help her in the upcoming campaign being associate with that kind of remark because it just expect add some of the divisions even more right. all right. >> all right. well, thank you, michael. not say bad things about james at all, who's called in sick today. was called in sick. on the mars

refunds to everybody. and you said, wait, let's have a policy about who gets a refund. and before you give a refund, let's have you check with your supervisor. woman's life was more than a refund policy. >> but pamela price, you need to hold these criminals. they have long records. they have done crime. they have been doing crime for years. they need to get off the streets so that people in alameda people in the bay area can feel. >> virginia says price seems to be advocating more for the defendants and she is for the victim's family. >> this has what do you think? spare? because this is his life now right here. so you tell me those 3 guys, should they have 75 years to life? yes. the answer is yes.

going on as usual. so things here right now actually pretty calm except inside. everybody's been evacuated. now, keep in mind, this is still in the morning here. so some people are not at work at the time of the evacuation. so it was already pretty quiet inside. now, just about a block that way is the swing space, the swing spaces that part of the that's actually off the capitol grounds where all of the members have their offices. so i've been told, as they've all been asked to stay in their offices, a block that way, the actual capital course is the older building where they have the chamber. they do the floor session. that right now is all on hold. but outside things actually pretty common fact is even a rally with few 100 people will just around the corner over there. so, yeah, overall, these outside aria. okay. but inside capitol under evacuation for now. no session for now. yeah. i mean, i'm looking at you and you're able to be right up against those stairs. so

>> get so they're not up for. i mean, it's like a threat but not is right. what is it inside? was it called in? is it a package? do we have any idea? great question. well, they are not saying any details right now as for that. but what we do know is that >> the members of of the leaders here inside the capitol are keeping very open at this point in the sense of open. i mean, outside is open the side, though, clear. so very a strange situation and just hear, you know, sometimes in these situations, you know, they block it off yesterday. and, you know, the california high patrol, by the way, runs the outside of the capital, not inside, but outside. right. and i just spoke with a just walking by and he told me, well, things at least outside carrying on as usual. so that's great thing. thing, daria, you get guy just walked over your shoulder and i think he in to do you missed it. >> so you're there all the time. i want i want to ask you because, you know, we're here in the bay area. so

>> you're in that building all the time. is that behind you? is that the only exit and there are several ways in and out and you've seen people streaming out. here is a guy coming out now and you see people coming out and everybody is out now. >> great question. yeah, everybody's out right now. in really the only behind here are just some of the security folks who run the capital you so when you walk in, have to go through security. so they kind have you go through those metal detectors and you walk right and they as i tried to walk in just a few minutes ago, said no, no, it's it's blocked optic active in that way. but overall outside, yeah, things still going on. so we're trying to figure out exactly what the threat may be. in you know, i'm going to be the shadow here. little tough to see because this is actually a computer. i can't really sue meant, but it's a street that there are a few ideas. see the california highway patrol just on their bikes as usual patrolling near. so it's just part of seems like a usual day here, except for the fact that right now things are on hold and people evacuated from the

inside of the building. now, remember, though, the inside of the building is under remodel. a lot of it construction on that part. you can see all the construction here a little bit tough with this and there. but that is because it's under a 5 year remodel. the governor's office used to be and all the members 120 80 in the assembly, 40 in the senate used to be right here inside the capitol. but because of this remodel construction, a 5 year construction project, they've all been moved to the swing space. so that's where they all a block south of in their normal office says that they will have for the next 5 years while this is under construction. so if you think about it, there's still her offices in the normal heart and this week's baseball, this place here is under evacuation. this only right now used for floor session and the official and some committees. but the overall mainly just for session at this point, got it. all right. and the takeaway here is everybody safe at the moment appears to be the case. thank you so much. a time for that live report. live report. >> thanks to
