  • 49 days after US House of Representatives voted to impeach President Donald Trump, the U.

  • S Senate voted yesterday afternoon to acquit him down.

  • The middle explanation of that event is our first topic today on CNN 10 on Coral A Zeus.

  • This was the third time in U.

  • S history that a president was impeached by the House and acquitted by the Senate.

  • And the events that occurred over the past couple months reflect the deep partisan divide in the United States.

  • The House is controlled by Democrats.

  • The Senate is controlled by Republicans, and the Chambers decisions were made mostly along party lines.

  • There were two votes in the Senate yesterday because there were two charges from the House.

  • The first charge or article one, was on abuse of power.

  • The Senate voted 52 to 48 that President Trump was not guilty of this.

  • All but one Republican voted to acquit the president that Republican joined every Democrat in voting to convict him For a president to be removed from office.

  • The constitution requires that 2/3 of the senators present vote to convict him.

  • President Trump's acquittal has been expected since the House charges were made.

  • The second charge, or Article two, was on obstruction of justice.

  • The Senate voted 53 to 47 that President Trump was not guilty of this.

  • Every Republican voted to acquit the president.

  • Every Democrat voted to convict him.

  • Senate having tried Donald John Trump, president of the United States, upon two articles of impeachment exhibited against him by the House of Representatives and 2/3 of the senators present not having found him guilty of the charges contained therein.

  • It is therefore ordered and adjudged that the said Donald John Trump be, and he is hereby acquitted of the charges and said articles.

  • So the end result is that Donald Trump will remain in office as U.

  • S president.

  • Next up, a charter flight from Wuhan, China, arrived yesterday in the U.

  • S State of California.

  • It's one of three evacuation flights that the U.

  • S has made in about a week, and the 178 passengers on board will stay under quarantine at Travis Air Force Base.

  • This is the first time in more than 50 years that a quarantine order was issued by the U.

  • S Centers for Disease Control.

  • It's trying to protect Americans from the widely spreading Wuhan Corona virus, which has infected more than 24,500 people worldwide and killed more than 490 of them.

  • It's about a 2% death rate from the virus.

  • Many who've gotten it have recovered.

  • The vast majority of the cases are in China, where the virus was first identified in mid December and the country has just finished the first of two hospitals.

  • It's built specifically for Wuhan Corona virus patients.

  • If you're wondering how China did that so quickly, it took more than 1000 construction workers and 100 machines working overtime.

  • The two new facilities will have thousands of beds for patients during the outbreak, even after nearly two decades.

  • Former SARS patient Alex Lamb is haunted by his experience.

  • SARS infected around 8000 people globally and killed 774 nearly half of them in Hong Kong.

  • The isolation of cases eventually led to the end of the outbreak.

  • The new Corona virus outbreak is already larger than SARS and unprecedented measures are in place to control it.

  • The rapid construction of hospitals, mass production of medical supplies and protective equipment and sweeping travel restrictions and temperature checks.

  • When will these measures stop the outbreak will.

  • The answer lies in understanding the virus itself.

  • Inside that building is the world's first lab grown copy of the Han Corona virus outside mainland China.

  • It's a major breakthrough that allows researchers here Hong Kong University to better understand the behavior of the virus.

  • Inside the lab, we are required to wear face masks.

  • My feeling is that this is just going to be like sand is that the world is going to get basically a very bad cold for about five months.

  • But with one major Kaavya, it appears the new virus, unlike SARS, can spread before symptoms arrived.

  • But the problem with this virus is that it does appear is that there is a period within the 1st 4 or five days with people say they can be frustrating but maybe asymptomatic.

  • So, for that reason, is gonna be far more difficult to manage.

  • And I want to shake your hand.

  • But it's during an outbreak.

  • So the master off when I meet Malik Paris in his office, he advises the World Health Organization on the violent the Indian way of greeting or a or the Japanese were greeting, He says There are two extreme scenarios.

  • The outbreak is brought under control, or the other extreme off course is that the virus is like influenza, which means that it's cannot be contend on.

  • It will spread.

  • This has already happened with H one N one, also known as swine flu.

  • The strain emerge in a pandemic in 2009 and now it's a seasonal virus.

  • Before Alex Lamb.

  • Humankind doesn't need another disease to contend with.

  • We must stand together.

  • We need to think positive because one day the disease will go away.

  • Now the head of a group of SARS survivors in Hong Kong, he is calling for the government to take tougher measures whatever it takes to end the latest outbreak.

  • Second trivia.

  • What is the world's most widely used source of renewable energy solar power, wind energy, hydropower or biofuels?

  • Hydropower.

  • Hydro electricity is used more than any other.

  • Renewable hydropower is also one of the oldest forms of renewable energy.

  • Wheels spun by the current of flowing water provided power for centuries before electricity caught on solar panels as we know them are a much more recent invention.

  • Their development really started advancing in the 19 fifties.

  • They come with some downsides, though they're considered a form of clean energy.

  • Building the panels themselves and then disposing of old or damaged ones can cause significant harm to the environment and the solar windows you're about to see.

  • A relatively small manufacturers will have to find a way to build larger ones.

  • Owners of skyscrapers will have to decide whether they want to install them, and there are questions about their cost versus modern windows that don't generate electricity.

  • But the company that makes solar windows says the benefits are clear is glass.

  • Similar panels are a popular method for capturing renewable energy, but they have some limitations.

  • They need lots of space, special installation and have some aesthetic drawbacks.

  • But what if they looked like this?

  • And every window around you doubled as a solar panel?

  • We've developed a way of making solar cells transparent by only capturing the invisible light.

  • This is the only technology that allows you to do that.

  • Ubiquitous energy isn't the first to develop solar glass.

  • Others have combined glass with solar cells that are thinner and smaller.

  • But they could have drawbacks, like lower power efficiency and less transparency.

  • Ubiquitous took a different approach and developed a solar coating made from organic dyes designed to match the transparency of standard windows.

  • Light absorbing dyes are found all around us.

  • What we've done is we've engineered those dies to selectively absorb infrared light and also convert that light into electricity.

  • And that's key because infrared light is invisible to the human eye.

  • The result, the team says, is solar glass that delivers the best combination of energy efficiency and transparency.

  • The installation here is one of the first installations of this glass.

  • For now, solar glass is still less efficient than traditional solar panels are, but its potential for wider use can make up for that.

  • For example, the Salesforce Tower in San Francisco has 70 times as much vertical surface to its rooftop, and that would mean over 20 times more energy production from transparent solar than opaque solar on the roof.

  • We really see the future of this technology is being applied everywhere for 10 out of 10.

  • Leonardo could never Devin see this coming.

  • This is one of his most famous paintings.

  • The Mona Lisa made entirely out of Rubik's Cubes.

  • She's so like the Lady with the Mystic Smile, The work, called a form of Rubik.

  • Cubism is up for auction later this month, where it could fetch as much as $166,000.

  • That'd be a pretty good profit.

  • The 330 cubes it took to build it would have cost less than 3000.

  • It's too bad the winning bidder has to pay that all at once.

  • Some could Matisse Allee, then go to the bank one starry night and convincing them to let you Warhol out enough Monet to Caravaggio right back to the auction house.

  • But that's a long way to go.

  • Yah, when what you really cuts sought to do is just take out a Mona lease that's elevating puns to an art form.

  • Y'all East Middle ensue.

  • City knows all about it.
