beautiful natural coverage. learn more at laura gueler.com, people who are watching and then our world change tv on the edge from here hey, sunday, september 22, did nine on cnn you, are, the cnn newsroom. >> i'm paula reid in washington in for jessica dean. we begin with breaking news tonight. astronauts butch

wilmore and suni williams will not returned or until next february. they're coming home in a capsule made by spacex. instead of the boeing one that brought them up to speed? they'd both been in space since arriving back in june. now cnn's space and defense correspondent, kristin fisher, has more well, paula, nasa is top leadership says this was a really difficult and disappointing decision, but they believe it's the right one in the end, it all came down to the astronaut safety. >> it was a unanimous decision within nasa that made the call that this boeing starliner spacecraft with all of these helium leaks and thruster there are problems. was simply just not safe enough to guarantee that butch wilmore and sunny williams, the two astronauts that have been up at the international space station since june would be able to get back to earth safely on that spacecraft. and this was a

unanimous decision. but during this press conference today, announcing this decision nasa leaders said that boeing felt differently and of course, boeing has so much on the line here. this program, way over budget, way behind schedule. boeing put out a statement shortly after this press conference started and it reads, quote boeing continues to focus first and foremost on the safety of the crew and spacecraft. we are executing the mission as determined by nasa, and we are preparing the spacecraft for a safe and successful uncrewed return. and so that starliner spacecraft is now going to undock from the international space station sometime in early september and when it does, we're going to find out if that's spacecraft and its thrusters are going to be able to orient it properly, get that heat shield in the right place so that it can withstand those really hot temperatures on re-entry. of course, no astronauts will be inside this time, but the reason that this has caused so much concern for the astronauts

safety within nasa is because there are echoes of what happened during the columbia tragedy back in 2003 so during this press conference today, i asked the nasa administrator bill nelson, who was a member of the committee that investigated challenger. he was a senator during in the columbia accident. i asked him how much did those tragedies and his role in investigating them impact the decision that he made here today was starliner it has affected the decision today by this collective group and all of those that participated and the flight tests readiness review this morning it is a trying to turn around the culture that first led to the loss of challenger and then led to the loss of columbia where obvious mistakes were not being brought

forth with that said the nasa administrator says he still remains 100% confident that at some point in the future, nasa astronauts will fly on a boeing starliner spacecraft. it's just not going to be now, butch and sunny are going to stay up at the international space station until february of 2025, making what was an eight day michigan up there. now about eight months and they will return to earth on boeing's biggest competitor, spacex's crew dragon capsule. >> paula kristin fisher thank. you. joining us now, retired astronaut jose hernandez. jose, i want to get your take on today's huge news well, i think it's no surprise in the aerospace community with possibly the exception of boeing, that nasa took the most cautious route to an announce that the astronauts were not

going to come back on the spot. >> hardliner, but rather come back on a proven vehicle that brings astronauts back home safely. and unfortunately that's the competition, which is the spacex dragon capsule well, do you think it was maybe premature to put these two astronauts on a boeing ship in the first place i'd know because we have to have these testified i mean, that's by definition that's why they're called test flights. >> and if everything goes as planned, this was going to be a 10-day mission he, got extended to 80 days because of the thruster failures and the helium leaks. and after doing some hot fire test of these thrusters engineers were convinced that they were overheating causing teflon seals to over-expansion, over bulge restricting the flow of propellant, which degrades the performance. and that's pretty important because you want to make sure you align, as was mentioned earlier, the capsule such that you protect with the

heat shield as it comes in and you can be off by a degree or two elsa, it could be a catastrophic failure and i just want to mention that when the columbia accident occurred, i was working as an engineer at nasa and someone coined a phrase of normalization of deviation that we start get, getting used to. >> deviations are making exceptions and then we'll suffer catastrophic accident. and this is why nasa director bill nelson said, hey, we're going to take the safest route because there's two lives at stake here and butch and sunny are very good friends of mine. i'm glad that nasa is making that decision actually, bill nelson and steve stich, the manager of nasa commercial crew program, actually spoke earlier today about the riskiness inherent in spaceflight. >> let's take a listen spaceflight is risky even at

its safety, safest and even at its most routine and a test flight by nature is neither safe nor routine. >> it was just too much risk, but the crew and so we decided to pursue the uncrewed tukey so if we accept the test flights are necessary and they are risky, does today's decision impact though the credibility of future boeing missions? well, i don't think so because, you know, as as director bill nelson you know, it's not a trivial thing to go off into space. and these are complex machines that get us up there. and nasa is committed to having to methods of getting humans, up into space. and this is why i think they're going to bring back the starliner. i'm sure it's going to come back safe and sound and we're going

to learn a lot more and redesign the thrusters and fix those helium leaks. and it's going to take another test slight up and eventually it will get into the system where it will be normal flight, where we can take it oh, crew up and bring them back home safely. >> i mean, would you feel comfortable getting on a boeing starliner absolutely you know, the reason why i left is because they retired the space shuttle fleet and the only game in town at that time was going to russia. i have five kids and i couldn't afford leaving them at home. and so but if nasa was to call me giddy up, i'll get up there and go go up myself. absolutely. i think i'm still in good shape so i can be ready to giddy up, but i just mentally right. even even for people were not astronauts thinking about what this must be like for butch and for sunny, you think you're going up for eight days, you're up there for eight months mentally, how does an astronaut

prepare for something like this? and then how do you handle it? have you ever find yourself in this kind of situation? >> yes. i mean, you can't disregard the mental effects of having these kind of like the goal line moved up and up further open up, right? because it was a ten day trip. >> now we're at what they 80 and now they're talking about eight months since the start of the mission and absolutely affects you mentally because you've had plans, you were only planning on being gone ten days. >> you had something scheduled two weeks in the future that didn't involve being a pin space. and you're going to miss thanksgiving, you're going to miss christmas, you're going to miss birthdays those types of things that does have a psychological effect. but you know what nasa does a great job at filtering people who are mentally strong and are able to withstand this i mean, they are professionals. i personally

know sunny and butch and these guys are outstanding instead of astronauts, they're going to pull out of this with flying colors and big heroes here, or their families. but nasa has a great support system the whole nasa family is supporting the families or anything that they mean i want to bring in another voice to this conversation, miles o'brien, he an aerospace analyst. miles, what is your take on today's decision by nasa well i don't think nasa really had a choice but to do what they did. >> there was the hardware to paraphrase what was said in the wake of columbia the hardware was screaming at them, saying something was wrong and the uncertainty associated with this it's just was too much too for them to stomach. it's so critical on re-entry that those thrusters fire at the appropriate time for the appropriate length of time. in order to make sure that capsule threads the needle between

coming into the earth's atmosphere, too hot, or perhaps skipping off and not being able to get in at all. it's a very risky series of events that has to happen and given what they've learned and what they don't know, which is crucial here they couldn't fathom putting a lot of astronauts in. there. i would have been very surprised if nasa made the decision to fly starliner back with sunny and butch aboard, an uncrewed return, we'll give them a lot of data maybe those thrusters will work just fine. but there's still some fundamental questions about the design of this craft that need to be answered before any astronauts strap in no miles, jose and i've been talking about a lot about what this means for boeing. but on the flip side, what does this mission now mean for spacex well if you'd asked me for five years ago when this contract was first let that it

was going to play out this way that we would have had you, know half dozen or so successful flights by the spacex dragon a dozen or so astronauts on board up and down the space station successfully without a hitch and boeing would have yet to accomplish what we can we call a successful mission i would, i would have bet against it boeing is the blue-chip enterprise when it comes to space and aerospace or was in this country and as we've seen on the commercial airliner side of things, somehow along the way that strong engineering culture, which made it this aerospace giant, seems to have been forgotten or needs to be relearned. >> there's new management at the top. let's hope that happens, but it's really really sad to see that happen. and boeing has been a partner with nasa since the very beginning. nasa doesn't build its own spacecraft is just now they're doing it a different

way of contracting boeing spend there since the beginning. and let's hope that it can get back on track jose, i want to pose this last question to you. >> i mean, put yourself in sunny and butch his position. >> how do you pass the time for eight months in space? >> do they have access to netflix up there well know and nothing science up there. >> the crew up there is conducting science and you've got to look at it as a a lab at a university. there's a lot more work than the number of people up there. so when butch in sunny, all of a sudden find themselves up there for eight months believed me, nasa will put them to work. there's plenty of experiments that need to be conducted and they're going to be a busy as bees working it. now, with respect to entertainment, they pipe up movies and there's email and there's the ip phone. so they can talk to their families just

about any time of day and be able to have that constant communication. so it's not like they're isolated so i think they're going to pass the time. they're going to be become part of the international space station crew as they are now. and they're going to be working for the next six months and now conducting grill important science. and they're going to come back. >> the scientific world. it's going to be for the better, for them staying up there. those eight months wadea, look on the upside, jose. thank you very much to you and to miles thank you very much. and ahead in the cnn newsroom, a manslaughter investigation is now underway after a soup yacht's sunk off the italian coast killing seven people. but for the key sticking points are merging tonight as negotiators work around the clock to get a gaza ceasefire deal over the finish line by got news for you. >> ramirez said today, september 14th at nine on cnn

talks, high level talks are happening this weekend in cairo. major sticking points however, remain to reaching a deal. yesterday, i spoke with someone who is close to the israeli military operation in gaza. major john spencer, who served in the u.s. army, is now chair of urban warfare studies at west point's modern war institute this is some of what he told me about the state of the war in gaza and continuing questions about civilian casualties. there let me just for a moment, because for folks watching here, what they will often see images of particular particularly, let me just show you video of an incident that took place just in the last week since i've been in gaza. since i've been in israel. this this took place earlier this month. there was an attack on a school in gaza in which israeli, sorry, gaza civilians, palestinian civilians were taking shelter more than 90 people were killed in this includes women and children.

the idf described this attack as precisely striking hamas terrorists operating with a hamas command and control center embedded in the building. now, i know, as well as knew that hamas often hides behind civilians but cnn has confirmed the idf use three gbu-39 250 pound bombs. how can that be described as a precise strike? given the number of civilian casualties one is because i don't believe that number of civilian casualties, we have a problem with determining what is the civilian casualty count? >> in operations where the only spokesman for those numbers is local sources that are hamas validated or hamas sources themselves so in that strike, which i think is a great example in that context of a strike, you would have to know what was the enemy known target, number of targets, and then what was the known status? when did they take the strike?

what did they do to prevent civilian casualties? and then what would the actual results? and this is where mass media now saying use specifically, but keep parroting whatever number that comes out of gaza within hours. and i've stayed war for a long time. i've never seen anybody ever be able to get civilian casualty counts within hours, like we seem to be able to do two repeatedly over know what you're dismissing your dismissing the entire you can take issue with the health ministry of gaza says specific numbers, but as you know, the biden administration, the pentagon has said that civilian death tolls in gaza of many thousands, including many thousands of women and children. they felt incredible as well so you can't dismiss the civilian casualties has entirely and credit incredible. and i should note that cnn has fixers on the ground there that witnesses the results of these strikes and sees the bodies of women and children and the

elderly so you can't dismiss all the civilian casualties. so my question is, not just wasn't good deaths in gaza, that's that's a fact. and this is war. but the question is, is israel doing everything feasible? that's the law of war requirements? feasible to prevent civilian harm. and there is no data that you're presenting that says they're not. have there been civilians to include women, children that have died in gaza? absolutely. is it 40,000? absolutely not. is it who is the cause of that civilian death? i think that the international fingers should be pointed at hamas, who doesn't sometimes embed it uses human shields and human sacrifice as its strategy. so again, i think we're coming at it from different angles when you can have your own opinions, you can have you own fabs thanks so much to major john spencer there who's often quoted by the israeli prime

minister in justifying the conduct of the war in gaza. >> coming ahead, why authorities in italy have now opened a manslaughter investigation into the sinking of a super yacht we're gonna be back in just a moment. >> summer means millions flock to america's national parks. but nature can turn disastrous when tourists is crossed the line. >> she started by my left leg, my initial thought was your definitely in a dei the whole story with anderson cooper tomorrow at 8:00 on cnn so far as helping me get my money right to achieve my ambitions were so five check-in and statements that be no account and earn one of the best at the lies in store or higher apy, an epic logan bonus, when you set up there with deposit you've got a pepto predicament as you overdid it on the loaded fries to now your gut is in the gutter. i'm doing with pepto fast mouth so you can keep on rolling when you are undo it with pepto-bismol when you're

way the boat was handled. >> joining me now to discuss is bruce neck, a former wall street journal reporter and author of the proving ground, the story of the 1998 sydney to hobart yacht race the turn deadly for us. are you surprised about this new manslaughter investigation no, not entirely but i don't think that explains everything. i think it's a combination of extraordinary weather and i think the yacht itself, it's designed, had some features that sets it apart from most schatz and yes, the crew probably made some decisions that are potentially maybe decisive, but without that whether none of this would have happened and regarding why this yacht sank, you, write in barons that the answer almost certainly lies in a combination of extraordinary weather conditions and a trio of design features that set this yacht apart from most sailing yacht talk to us a little bit about those specific three design

features well, the first and most obvious one is the mast for a time it was the tallest mast in the history of sailboats hundred 246 feet, just extraordinary height, which they lit up like a christmas tree whenever it entered the harbor. >> and the mast is not something that adds to stability. >> when you start rocking turbulence are high winds, it something like a pendulum. so that's the first one the second one is the key it well, i'm gonna it's on the screen right now just at the center of the mass. there is a sort of a lounge, a cockpit quite large. and it's below the level with deck. and that's sunken deck. if it were to be filled with water as as clearly happened in this case it joined basically the living room of a yacht and

the entrance was a double glass door that retracted in and out. so one of the questions i'm sure the investigators are looking at this was that door open? because if there was water in this essentially cockpit, that would have turned into a swimming pool. it could have entered through that door, but i'm not sure that's quite decisive either because the door if there was a lot of pressure water problem with a broken in some of the accounts from people on the boat talked about broken glass i don't know that that's the case, but certainly one possibility so the third issue is the kiel most large sailboats have a kill that's fixed. this one was unusual in that it had a so-called lifting kill the change. you could change the height of the killer, the depth of the kill from 13 feet below the water to 32 profound difference but the truth is, boats like this sale they

don't say all that much. >> you would want to have the killed down when you're sailing up wind when you're motoring, which is what they did the day before they arrived at this harbor in the north, north of sicily. >> we know through navigational records they went in a straight line which certainly indicates that they were there were under power. >> when you're on your power, you would never leave the heel down because all that does is increase the drag slowed the boat down and you burn more fuel so it's those three things that together with this weather, i think that explain what happened here. >> and we're seeing some beautiful pictures of the ship. now, there is, of course, ben, as i said, a manslaughter investigation that is opened. so how do you see this playing out given that you believe it's combination of maybe human error and weather events well, i think there's going to be a lot of litigation and i'm sure the crew and that probably means the captain because the captain ultimately as their responsibility as the keeled

down, is it not? >> there were some people were on the deck at the time when the boat was knocked down? knocked down, wear the mask went flat to the water. that's when the water certainly entered. should the crew have gotten everybody out of there, they're state rooms, their bedrooms on deck, maybe should the killed have been fully sat down if it wasn't? well, that's going to be certainly an issue for the inquest but there's also the design of the boat was it was it a boat that could withstand these conditions? >> i think most yacht designers would say that a yacht that's knocked down two 90 degrees, essentially flat to the water, should recover. sailboats do that, i wouldn't say they do it all the time, but they do it and they recover. you can going past 90 degrees this is about the couldn't withstand that. so i think the, designer of the boat, the manufacture the boat

when it comes to litigation, i think there's going to be a whole lot of directions that's going to go and it's going to take this will be played out for a long period of time snack thank you so much for joining us thank ukraine is celebrating its independence today as the country's armed forces take control of more and more russian territory, the first time russia has been invaded since world war ii five good things. >> listen wherever you get your podcasts when the saw dust settles and the engine roars, the thing you care about is a job well done. well, when you get your tools from harbor freight something about the job feels different. >> your wallet, whatever you do, do it for less at harbor freight still have symptoms from moderate to severe ulcerative colitis or crohn's disease he's after a tnf blocker like humira or remicade, put them in check with revoke revoke works differently and it's a once-daily pill when symptoms

industry streaming exclusively on max in, ukraine, high alert today as the country celebrates its 33rd independence day, the deadly fighting with russia continues with ukraine battling on two fronts. repelling russia inside its own borders, but also a counter attack inside russia's kursk region. as the war hits the three month mark, a rare positive development with both sides agreeing to a prisoner swap, exchanging 100 and prisoners each. this as president biden pledges more military support to ukraine, including air defense missiles and counter-drone gear, anti-armor missiles, and mogul rocket systems. cnn military analyst retired air force colonel cedric leighton joins us now we're now more than two weeks into ukraine's advance into western russia, or russian forces are advancing in eastern

ukraine. what is your read on this whole situation? >> yeah, paula, it's actually really a fascinating situation that we're dealing with now. so on ukraine's 33rd independence day, what we can see is these major things. first of all, the russians still control all of this territory, so they control about 18% of the ukrainian landmass but what has changed is this little fact right here. this area is where the ukrainians have actually moved into russian territory for the first time since world war ii. they've captured about 500 square miles or so of that territory. in addition to that, what they're doing is major activity here in the crimean region. and also all throughout russia where they've been able to use long distance drones and missiles of various types to actually make a difference in the kinds of things that you would expect a more advanced power to actually do. they've done some strategic work that has actually impacted moscow and gone all the way as far north as more the more months

kirya, which is north of the arctic circle, know we mentioned earlier that prisoner swap with each side, exchanging 115 individuals. what do you make of this? do you think this is really a sign of de-escalation or is it just a tactical move well, in many ways, this is something that's been going on for quite some time. >> there have been a few hundred prisoners exchanged at a time, really since the start of this, of this conflict, going all the way back to 2014. but this particular action that the russians and the ukrainians agreed to really allows both sides to replenish some of their people also get their people back. so it could be the sign of a bit of a thaw in they is a diplomatic standoff, but more importantly, it is something that has been going on for some time. and even though the ukrainians have invaded part of russia or incurred into it they are still allowing each other to exchange prisoners. and that is a good thing for both sides. >> this week, the biden administration announced, of course it will send $125 million in new military aid to ukraine. can you lay out what

exactly is in this new aid package? >> so there are several things that are critically important here, paula. but i think one of the most important thing is this, the air defense missiles. this is something that ukraine has been asking for for quite some time. this is designed to protect the civilian infrastructure as well as the military infrastructure. you're protect the cities. and of course, we're coming up on winter and the air defense missiles are going to make a really big difference when it comes to the possibility of russia attacking things like the heating facilities, the power plants, things like that. so they're critically important. high-mars, this is something that the eu cranial have been asking for, for quite some time. they're getting more of these anti-armor missiles critical because the russians have a lot of armored vehicles, including tanks, counter-drone systems. this war is all about drones. and these counter-drone systems going to help the ukrainians really achieve a degree of security that they otherwise wouldn't be able to achieve. and then something that they always need is 155 millimeter as 105 millimeter artillery. this is very important for the war in

the donbass region. and that's really why this is so critical. >> that's a lot. are there any limits to how these can be? u.s for example, can they've used inside russia. >> well, that's the critical thing. a lot of these munitions are going to be used only in ukraine, especially the air defense missiles the anti-armor missiles are basically designed also for use inside ukraine. but what the ukrainians want to do is they want to not only use weapons like the high-mars, but atacms systems two, which would really allow themselves to go into areas along all of this areas. so the russians are really afraid that the ukrainians are going to to be able to use these weapons into this area so far, the united states has not allowed the ukrainians to use the atacms far into russia. however, if they do get that permission, that would put all kinds of russian facilities like in belgorod at risk. and that really would be a critical thing. one other thing that i'd like to point without real quickly, paula, is this town

right here. it pokrovsk. this is where a lot of fighting is taking place in the east right now, if that fighting continues, it could we can the ukrainian defensive line and that could make a really big difference for the war and could be very difficult for ukraine to recover from this if pokrovsk is taken by the russians colonel cedric leighton. thank you so much. and we'll have more after this break the pros for him. >> i got news for you are pretty odd yeah. >> what are the kinds we could run out the news? before then would never happen if i got news for you, the mere saturday, september 14 at nine on cnn and streaming next day on max the ergo smart base from tempur-pedic automatically response to snoring. so no more hiding under your pillow because this system actually detect snoring than adjust tell producing, don't miss our biggest sale of the year with savings up to $700 on select adjustable mattress said we really don't want people to think of feeding food like

2024 college football season, kicking off with a major upset in ireland. georgia ch, stunning number ten, florida state winning on a last second field goal. and there's more action can getting underway right now. bleacher report college football reporter morgan moriarty is live with the latest morgan. what a win by georgia tech yeah, this is like the perfect way to pick off the 2024 college football season. georgia tech pulling off incredible upset over florida state, who's favored, who was entered this season favored to win the acc a preseason top ten team. and credit to georgia tech head coach brent key he is a former tech alumnus. he played offensive line for the yellowjackets back in the day. and the way the georgia tech won this game as a former alignment, you couldn't ask for anything better on that last possession, they've won this game by running the ball

effectively, eating that clock and winning the battle in the trenches. credit to their fields pitch kicker, a bird, he missed a funeral earlier in this game comes out nails the 44 yard or with confidence this is a program building when brent key and tech, i mean, just a huge upset, huge way to start the college ball season for state, not out of anything, yet, the beauty of the 12 team plant as they can still so very much, stay alive in the postseason race, but a shocking upset, no doubt in dublin, ireland today. >> and we'll get and this is the first season will see the new expanded playoff field. so how do you expect this to change the postseason landscape? >> yes. so the 12 team field is going to be unlike anything we've seen in this sport. so essentially how to break, to break it down, how it will actually work be first four teams, excuse me, the first four conference champions, they will get top four spots. so that's gonna be the acc, the

sec, the big and in the big 12, they will get bids in addition to first-round byes, the fifth highest ranks conference champion. so that's going to be your group of five team. boise state at the mountain west looks like the favorite there, but keep an eye on the legs of liberty, maybe even an appalachian state from the fund belt, they will get a bit as well if the ranked inside the top 12 that will be their seat. if they're outside of the top 12, there'll be automatically bumped up to that number 12 spot. so it going to be really fun to see how it plays out. in addition, seeds five through eight will be able to host first round games. >> this is unlike anything we've seen in college football teasing able to host meetings we'll play out gains in the first round. >> these campuses are going to be absolutely electric as they host these games in mid to late december. from there, the bracket just kinda plays out how a normal bracket would in addition, the traditional bowls like the festival, orange bowl, peach bowl, all of those will also be incorporated into the

postseason in those lakes. eight rounds. so while there are rules for seating and first-round byes, there are real note set parameters for how many teams certain conferences can get it and so, although fans may not like to hear it, we can very well see multiple sec teams are multiple teams out of the big ten in the big 12. so i made sure see how the committee values certain conferences depending on how everything played plays out and if they placed an emphasis on stronger conferences or weaker conferences with respect to the number of bits. so it's going to be a lot of fun and really exciting. a lot of change, but i can't wait to see how it plays out. >> now make an important point because this is of course the first season under this new conference dynamic the power five is no more. how do you think that could affect the overall experience for fans? >> yeah. i mean, for fans, like i mentioned the home playoff games, the fact that these schools will get to host playoff games is going to be so

much phone. >> i mean, you talk about a typical college campus. is dead during christmas time in the middle of december. now they're going to just go into be electric, isn't any primetime matchup? so it's going to be so much fun. but as far as fans and certain teams, although it is expanding to 12 teams, there are going to still be plenty of teams left out. florida state, obviously, last year, left out of the 14 playoff despite being undefeated. but there are plenty of contenders across the country. the sec, georgia in texas, the favorites there wouldn't be surprised if they play in the sec title game here in atlanta, but also keep in mind alabama, ole miss, a team lane kiffin. he has one of the most talented rosters in oxford that he's had since he's gotten too old miss but also don't sleep on it seem like tennessee and 11 in the, acc i mentioned florida state being the preseason act favorite. they've still very much alive in that hot, but this is a critically important year for clemson dabo swinney and the

tigers have missed out on the playoff. each of the last four seasons. and he's been head coach who's really actively pushed against the modern changes that we've seen with rooting for spec to the transfer portal. just a couple of years ago, he was joking about using god's name, image, and likeness to build his recruiting class. this is a critical year for him, also a team like miami and the acc, i like them as well. they're really, really talented. it feels like this is the kind of miami team that will finally take that off he's in hype and momentum and translate that into on-field winds. but we've seen a lot of that happened in miami teams in the past, in the big ten, the favorites there, oregon coming in from the patch wealth ohio state, they'll actually play each other in late october in the regular season and then the big 121 of the more fun conferences in the country, utah was the favorite there. but just keep an eye on it's really fascinating to see how it will all play out because there's a lot of unknowns with this new 12 team playoff. and i'm just excited to be along for the ride.

>> morgan. thank you. >> thank you, paula. >> and every year tourists get far too close up, close and personal with wild animals like a grizzly bears and bison in america's national parks. but how close is too close? i'll, cnn's ed lavandera's spent four days in yellowstone america's oldest national park, and learned well, the hard way. take a look the motel over there has a sign that says do not pet the fluffy cows. >> you constantly have to be reminded about this stuff because you're walking around town and you think that they're just part of the atmosphere and that they're friendly. to remind yourself to wild animals well friendly stranger reminds us of that. in a loving way this, is close encounters tourists in the wind it didn't
