pretrial releases of detainees. -- of many felon arrestees who have otherwise been detained. zach: the second factor is what he says a scourge of untreated meth addiction among those arrested. the proposal aims to expand drug treatment for arrestees, support small businesses hit by robberies, and focus on what he calls a revolving door at the jail. >> the san jose police department looked at data over a 14-month period, identified 30 arrestees who had been arrested a minimum of 10 times over that period of 14 months. one individual, 19 times. >> need all the help we can get, whether it is physical bodies, patrol cars making a difference, or changing the law, or changing legislation. what is occurring right now is not working. that needs to change. zach: the city does control the san jose police department. much of what happens to someone after an arrest falls on the county and courts. accardo says his proposal can bring different stakeholders and jurisdictions together. >> obviously, a lot of this is work that requires

[laughter] >> i think so. the standard definition of astronaut is you have to make it to a certain height. rob: that would be an altitude of 50 miles, and the international space station is 250 miles up so they would definitely qualify. each visitor will have a set of

experiments to run while up there so that is one reason they prefer to not be called tourists. as a gift for their hosts, they will bring up food prepared by celebrity chef chef jose andres. what can we take from this mission? dick allen says the interest in a trip like this says it all gets us talking about science. >> that i think is the big take away. there is something about space that gets people involved in science, and that is good for all of us. rob: rob mcmillan, abc7news. liz: anything to go into space, right? still ahead on abc 7 news, preparing for fire season. how calfire is wrapping up to what is to be a very wild season. we w
