  • their support optimism in the international fight against Corona virus.

  • And that's where we start today's edition of CNN 10.

  • I'm Carla Zeus outside the CNN Center.

  • Here we go.

  • From Sunday to Monday, the Nation of Spain saw an increase of several 100 deaths from Cove in 19 but it was a smaller increase than the average day last week.

  • That's giving hope to Spanish health officials.

  • The increase in the number of new cases was lower as well.

  • Italy has seen a decrease in the number of daily deaths and hospitalizations from Corona virus, and in Germany, the government has allowed some small businesses, like bike shops and car dealerships, to reopen.

  • But Chancellor Angela Merkel says the country is a long way from being out of the woods and that preventing a relapse of the virus is a priority.

  • The Czech Republic, Austria, Denmark in Slovakia have also removed some of their restrictions.

  • The United States has seen more than 760,000 confirmed cases of the virus, according to Johns Hopkins University.

  • More than 30% of those cases are in New York state alone, and though the governor says New York is past the peak of new cases and deaths, Corona virus is still very much a threat.

  • And as far as New York City goes, the mayor of its 8.5 1,000,000 people says all parades, concerts and rallies have been canceled through the month of June.

  • Other parts of the U.

  • S.

  • With fewer cases are looking at how and when they can start opening up businesses and schools again.

  • Ah, former commissioner of the U.

  • S.

  • Food and Drug Administration says quote, it's not going to be a light switch, meaning that states that do start getting back to normal will be doing it gradually over the months of May.

  • In June, you 12th Trivia.

  • Which of these meteor showers is typically visible in April?

  • Clear.

  • It's boated.

  • Percy.

  • It's four persons meteor shower that gets its name from the constellation Libra occurs in April, and scientists say that's because the lyrics appeared to originate from near that constellation.

  • But don't just take their word for it on Tuesday, and especially Wednesday night, you can see the lyrics for yourself if the weather is clear.

  • It's the first meteor shower of spring.

  • The American Meteor Society says the best time for viewing.

  • It will probably be between midnight and 5 a.m. But if that's too late or too early for you, astronomers say some slower, longer Meteors will streak over our heads in the hours before midnight.

  • Here's why this is happening.

  • There's a comet named Thatcher.

  • It leaves a trail of debris behind it as it rockets through space.

  • The Earth passes through that debris in April, and the shooting stars that are really Thatcher's Meteors burn up in our atmosphere.

  • Questions here all the time about comets, asteroids and Meteors.

  • Meteorites.

  • What's the difference?

  • Well, let's start in space, work our way all the way down to the surface, a comet is a snowball.

  • It's a piece of ice now.

  • The ice is mainly frozen gas, not water.

  • But there could be dust and rocks and things inside the comet Haley's comet.

  • Now NASA knows of about 3600 other comets than that one out there.

  • Closer in in the asteroid belt.

  • These are rocks, not gas.

  • They could be metal as well, but they are hard surfaces, and sometimes they come out of the asteroid belt.

  • Get closer to the surface of the earth, or at least our atmosphere.

  • If one or a piece of a smaller one called the Meteoroid hits the surface of the atmosphere, it turns into a meteor.

  • It gets bright because it hits our atmosphere and begins to burn up.

  • It doesn't make its way.

  • All the way down to the surface.

  • It turns into a shooting star.

  • Now, if it does make its way all the way down to the surface of the Earth and hits the ground and you can pick it up, that is a meteorite from looking above us to diving below us.

  • Get ready for a ride on the deep flight dragon.

  • Its top speed is only 4 to 5 miles per hour, and it only goes as deep as about 400 feet.

  • But there's still enough sunlight at that depth for you to see what's around you so the watercraft can save the weight of heavy lighting equipment, and you don't need extensive training or a wetsuit to operate it.

  • So let's see what's under C.

  • It looks kind of like a Formula One race car.

  • That's what most people think.

  • I think of it as a quadcopter.

  • You know, these drones that fly around.

  • But there's a big man, one that goes underwater.

  • It's very simple.

  • It's been a secret.

  • This is going to be shocking, but this is an ocean planet.

  • We think it's built for us because we walk on land.

  • But this is a small part.

  • 94% of life on Earth is in.

  • The oceans were excluded.

  • Human beings don't have access to our own planet.

  • We're trying to change them, so this thing comes down.

  • For the last 50 years, we've gone underwater in machines, court Submersibles.

  • Initially, the Holy Grail was to get to the bottom of a plan.

  • And now you realize that the real goal, Let's get everybody else down there who wants to go, Let's given the opportunity.

  • It doesn't exist right now.

  • We're trying to create that in a normal Submersible, most people think you need to be a professional pilot because you have to adjust the vows.

  • You have to adjust the buoyancy, and if you mess up, you can sing Well.

  • The machines were building.

  • Now don't do that.

  • They don't have that complexity.

  • There it is.

  • We just tried to make them so they usable by most people will take you out and I'll give you the controls.

  • You will die.

  • Submarine.

  • That's a big deal.

  • Okay, under the sea and you have the car left hand side.

  • Is this up and down?

  • I'm pushing all the way forward right now under the sea diving submarine That easy way are now well under Lake Tahoe, right?

  • A beautiful death.

  • Even though there's no animals, your right hand side is a joystick.

  • Move that joystick generally to your right sub is turning around right, moving gently forward.

  • You're now moving forward.

  • That's all there is to it.

  • We go down to what we call the edge of darkness, which is this wonderful twilight zone below where you can snorkel.

  • But before it's black, 400 feet is black.

  • You can't see what's the point.

  • It's powered electrically.

  • We have really good lithium type batteries, and you can stay down electrically eight hours or so.

  • Life support is really important, so that's 24 hours.

  • That's longer than most people.

  • That's 123 hours max.

  • The key to having something that most people can use is if you mess up what happens if you get into trouble you have to do the simplest possible thing.

  • Switch it off and it floats back your home.

  • No, very first of anything cost a lot of money.

  • So these cost well over $1,000,000.

  • How do we get that to most people?

  • We fly in airplanes.

  • We don't have to buy them.

  • You rent one charter one you get taken out by one don't have to buy some very, very wealthy people.

  • One of the adventure they could buy their lucky ones.

  • You almost lose sense of where you are.

  • I had to sort of pinch myself and say I'm flying underwater, which is incredible.

  • One thing that the ocean needs is the ability to be more accessible.

  • And if this doesn't do it, I don't know what does.

  • You can tell the future.

  • But our kids will have access to the ocean in a way that we never did.

  • Their parents thought this planet was explored trodden, worn out, fought over.

  • That's it.

  • We have to go into space.

  • Kids are gonna go way.

  • It isn't even bigger planet down here.

  • You never had access to.

  • But I do.

  • I'm going to explore this place back in the water.

  • surface.

  • We thought we'd serve to shore, but Carl there lockdowns.

  • That's not a problem for Thomas Serve Eddie.

  • He hadn't been surfing since January, so he made this sweet stop motion video from his apartment.

  • And now at least it looks like he's doing what he loves to do.

  • Survey used sheets, pillowcases, towels and a lot of creativity to complete the scene.

  • The only problem is when he wipes out, it's like hitting his head on hardwood.

  • Oh, maybe there are no aerials, but you're still floored.

  • But if the waves and opportunities air flat and you're too tense, toe hang loose at home, why not wax the floor lunch after camera and kick out some six surfing videos?

  • They're sure to win you a perfect CNN 10 to the students of Roane County High School.

  • Thanks for hanging CNN 10 with us from Spencer, West Virginia.
