'80ings, and '90s. it was only allowed to do that over the ocean because the sound effect is damaging and unsettling. today nasa is working to lower the boom so airlines can quietly cut the sound and achieve those speeds 70 years after chuck yeager's achievements. >> i heard the sonic boom, and we knew right there that he had brought in a new air force, a new supersonic air force. >> reporter: bob cardenas blue the b 29 bomber that dropped chuck yeager's x1 out of the sky and into the history books. >> once we could go beyond the speed of sound, it was the gateway to space. >> reporter: that mow meantous event 70 years ago did lead to space travel but not supersonic commercial air travel mostly because of this.

ground, herring and his microphones are listening and collecting data. >> that's supersonic. >> supersonic right now. >> so we've just completed the normal boom. we're about to try the low sonic booms. >> reporter: but to execute the low boom maneuver, larson must first climb to 49,000 feet. >> so when he in verted and went down and came back up. >> yep. that's exactly it. >> reporter: a few seconds later, back on the ground. herring's information showed a reduction. back then it was obviously a huge deal to go supersonic. now we do it daily. i'm still part of that team going out there doing supersonic research, so that's pretty cool. >> the plan is to use flights

like this to get more data and feedback. nasa will use that in the newly designed planes when they start flying. unlike our flight, that plane will not have to go inverteted a 49,000 feet and then dive straight down. it will create a low boom by y fast. >> compare this to nothing experience you've done in the past. >> nothing like it. nothing like it. just because you're at 49,000 feet and we're spinning over and then you're diving straight down 20,000 feet in 15 seconds or so. >> better you than me. >> and coming straight back up that i'm so jealous, so jealous. >> next time. >> great piece. >> love it. love it. all right. ahead, this morning's other headlines, a tumble that left ed sheeran injured. and how to avoid

it is monday, october 16th, 2017. welcome back to "cbs this morning." "60 minutes" shows how the opioid epidemic got worse. plus oscar winner tom hanks shows off his writing talent in his debut book. he explains how typewriters let his mind and fingers wander. but first here's today's "eye opener" at 8:00. an explosive 60 minutes report found congress helped disarm the drug enforcement administration during the opioid crisis. they say it stripped their agency's ability to go after

suspicious shipments. >> the justice didn't does not dispute any "60 minutes" reporting. >> the family of one victim who died last year says more needs to be done to show how destructive opioid addiction can be. >> at the time of the explosion witnesses heard a loud boom. about 30 minutes later the rig was on fire. >> although firefighters are worry and warn dangers are still here, this're confident the worst is behind us. accusations are piling up. even weinstein'sover brother describes him as sick and debraved. >> the president's own adviser steve bannon -- >> he's looking to his right. that's jones in the end zone. what a grab by jones. >> look at that. that's just beautiful to watch. great athletes playing a great

game. >> i'm charlie rose with norah o'donnell and alex wagner. gayle king is off. they ask why congress passed a bill with no consent limiting the drug administration's power of >> this map shows it in 1999. it hooked like this in 2015 as the number of opioid-related deaths increased. republican members of congress -- republican member of congress tom marino and marsha blackburn. they made it harder to send bad

prescriptions to pharmacies and doctors' offices. >> i don't understand why congress would pass a bill the would strip us of our authority in the height of an opioid epidemic in congressman marino's district and congressman blackburn's district. why are they sponsoring bills when people in their backyard are dying coming from drugs of the same bills they're protect. >> why do you think it's happening? >> because i think they have an influence over congress that has never been seen before, and these people came in with their influence and that money and got a whole statute changed because they didn't like it. >> reporter: seven months after the bill became law congressman marino's point man on the legislation, his chief of staff bill thai became a lobbyist for

the national association of chain drugstores. since the crackdown, they've hired at least 46 investigators, ttorney, and supervisors from the dea including 32 directly from the division that regulates the drug industry. mike gill, chief of staff for the dea administrator was hired by hdjn, one of the country's largest health care law firms and most recently jason hadges overseeing it during the slowdown of the d.c.-based law firm. he declined to speak with us. >> marino and blackburn did not respond to our request for comment. marino is now a nominee of president trump for drug czar. they they say will use all the

tools at our disposal to fight the epidemic. the health alurns said the report presented, quote, a misleading picture and says distributors are strongly committed to finding systemic findings. >> he joins us from washington. good morning, lenny. an incredible piece in the post and on "60 minutes" last night to read the whole thing. you talked to former dea agents including jim geldof who was a 40-year dea veteran who said this was a busy plan. are these drug drirkts complicit in this epidemic? >> well, they certainly have been caught numerous times over and over and over again, not reporting suspicious orders of these opioid pain pills from doctors and pharmacies. that is the law. they must report those things.

they must report them to the dea and say, hmm, this guy order 20d,000 pills last month. now he wants 100,000 pills. we're a little worried about that. over and over again they did not do that, and those pills found their way into the hands of users and dealers. >> the question becomes why did that know report it, right? >> right. is it because they want to make money? is it because it's too difficult for them to keep track of all these pills? is it because they just were not geared up to do this kind of due diligence? it doesn't really matteret the law is the law. i can't just not report my taxes because i have some reason that prohibits me from doing my taxes. they've got to do it. find a way to do it. if those pills spill out onto the street by hundreds of millions, it's their responsibility. >> what was the argument that made that happen? >> the argument that made that happen, the argument that sold

this bill on capitol hill was that legitimate painkiller users were not getting their drugs in a legitimate manner. they said, well,'ve good all these folks out there who do need these pills and they're not able to get them when they need them because the dea is out of control, because the dea is cracking down so hard on these distributors that folks are not getting their drugs. well, there's nothing in the law that actually changes that at all and the evidence for that was actually sort of anecdotal. where was the evidence that these pills were ending up in the hands of dealers and users was quite substantial. >> lenny, the dea said only a small minute amount is involved in the misappropriation of these drugs. how impactful is that action?

>> it is true. the impact one single pharmacy can have is important. as we report and you at "60 minutes" reported, you had a single pharmacy in west virginia that put millions of pills on the street in a town of seven hundred people. there were two pharmacies in sanford, florida, in the time frame before 2012 that put millions of pills on the street by they come from far and wide from app lash ya, florida, and ohio, and they get those pills. if you have a rogue doctor or pharmacist, the impact is enormous. >> what's been the response to the piece on "60 minutes" on sunday night and the legal focus on sunday. >> we heard from the dea. you heard the statement you guys referenced at the beginning of this segment. you heard from the drug dealers who say it's true but relevant to our reporting.

it's monday morning. we'll see what happens on capitol hill. >> tom marino is nominated to be the next drug czar? >> he is. >> wow. >> we don't know what will happen there. you know, his hearing isn't even set. >> lenny bernstein with the "washington post." great reporting. thanks, lenny. >> thanks so much. the senate is expected to vote this week on a budgetlet it is the first step toward advancing president trump's tax agenda. a new cbs news poll finds 58% of the tax reforms would fab the wealthy. 18% say they would favor the middle class. the white house says it would bost annual income by $4,000 a year through corporate tax cuts. >> the president is expected to meet with mitch mccome about taxes. he called the meeting after former chief strategist steve bannon lashed out over the weekend. rescue divers are searching for a missing person.

the platform went up in flames last night. seven people were hurt including five who have critical injuries. it happened on lake ponchartrain. they're trying to determine if oil is leaking into the lake. the fbi launches a new campaign today to clamp down on fake kidnapping claims. >> a man says we have cut off her finger and if you want the rest of her in a body bag, it's your choice. >> reporter: ahead, where investigators say most of the calls come from and how to tell if the threats are fake.

going to mars is not about rocket science. it's about political science. >> which is getting the money to go there. >> slum. >> you trained with the russian space program as well as the u.s. space program. what are the differences between the two? >> there's a lot. they even been great colleagues. they've had to do a lot with less funding. they don't have the same funding we have in our space program but they even been great partners. that's what makes space and the space station so great. one of the things is there's this international partnership where countries that are sometimes at odds with each other and enemies can work on something collaborative that benefits us all. >> do you assume you've been in space for the last time? >> i hope not, but likely, you know, unless we get a pretty good stream of commercial flights going -- >> we may have, not from nasa but from sflievt yeah. if i ever flew again, it would

be there. >> you say it gave you a different feeling about a small part of a larger universe. how does that affect your everyday life? >> i think it makes you more of an environmentalist looking aet the planet, makes you more of a humanist, looking at 7.5 billion people on earth, no political borders, and then hearing all the news that happens on this planet on a daily basis, mostly bad news, in talking to the choir here, it really changes you and makes your more empathet empathetic. >> we should send the leaders up to space. >> interestingly enough my russian colleague said if we want to solve problems, we should send our two presidents to space for a year. >> he's going to get in trouble for that. >> i didn't say that. >> that was me shah that you didn't say it was a bad idea though. >> thank you, scott kelly. welcome back to terra firma.
