but things began to change in 1946 when america began to balance the radar signals off the moon.nto orbit and in 1958 we launched our first satellite. by 1961, when president kennedy challenged us to put a man on the moon, we were deep into the space race. at that time, the question was not just about wonder and amazement. it was about the american leadership and security. with space serving as the final frontier, we were forced into a competition, with space and by proxy, our collective future would be defined by american freedom, or soviet communism. to answer that question, we enlisted the help of hundreds of thousands of patriotic americans. americans across the country began to study math and science and engineering and they began writing equations and solving problems we had never previously considered. also that our country would continue to be the pioneering people they had always been. so when are rockets carrying man launched into orbit, in 1962, they did so with the fuel of american willpower and determination and with the faith that we could do, what no one had done,

to land the first humans on the moon. and to launch and during scientific missions like the voyager probes. their achievements are all the more impressive given the challenges they faced. ordered them congressional gold medal honors their lives and work and ensures that they will continue to inspire americans for years to come. when the first woman lands on the moon in the artemis program she will follow a trail blazed by the women we honor today. i am proud to have a small part. a small role in giving them the recognition they deserve. thank you. >> ladies and gentlemen, the united states senator from west virginia. achievements of the wt and this group of women that we are presenting wit >> i am absolutely thrilled to be here today to be in front of all of you, and i celebrate the achievements of the women and this group of women that we are presenting with gold medals today, and their families. i know there are a lot of family members here. all of the rest of the women who have contributed to the success of nasa during

here's a live look at half moon bay. things look fairly calm there, but other parts of the coastline, not so you get toward pacific. you see those large waves kind of slamming right along the coastline. so, yeah, the national weather service says we've got to be careful out there. some of those waves, maybe 6 to 10 feet high in those big time waves. they can knock it down and drag. you're right on that cold water in a hurry. so be very careful if you're headed out along the coast. in the meantime, though, yeah, we are working on a nice day outside the temperatures. pretty comfortable in most spots school 60 in san francisco. it is 66 degrees in oakland. 73 in san jose. 79 degrees now and live more warm. 80 in concord. 79 saint rose and a cool 59 in half moon bay with that fog. but we can expect more fog on the way as camped out right there. some of the clouds continuing along the coastline out said though, talking about those storms. we could see something punch through a chance of rain on the way. we'll talk more about

moon in the late �*60s and �*70s and then stopped going for decades because it was too expensive.lan is notjust to go back but to stay there and have a long—term presence and build infrastructure. it was so expensive back in the �*60s and �*70s, theyjust did it for geopolitical reasons. now they are trying to do it for commercial reasons, to build new industries. so this is part of an effort to lower the cost of space flight and notjust go to the moon once or twice and have a day trip, but to go there and stay there, and the ultimate aim is to build a spacecraft that can take up to 100 astronauts. can you believe that? you said it was about geopolitics in the �*60s but there is still a space race going on, though, isn't there? you are absolutely right, for decades congress were not interested in sending astronauts back to the moon even though presidents kept saying they wanted to, but the moment china said it wanted to send an astronaut to the moon — "oh, this is about national security", and all of a sudden the budget lines had two or three zeroes added to them. elon musk is runn

this is half moon bay's favorite annual tradition.only a few get up there and it all starts with weighing the smaller pumpkins. those that just weigh a couple hundred pounds. but the real prize, some say, is getting to meet and network with some of the farmers all over the country. >> just. i love to see the community come together, especially, you know, even having the farmers come in from all over and just everyone's in a great mood. so we, you know, we definitely have a good time project. >> last year's winner had a pumpkin weighing 2,749 pounds that set a world record. the event is also a kick off for the town's pumpkin festival that happens later this week. the winner gets $9 for every pound and an additional $30,000 if they do break that record, we're not going to know that until way later in the afternoon. but once we find that out, if that happens, we will certainly let you know. we are live this morning in half moon bay. i'm james torres, ktvu, fox two news. >> all right. thank you james. well, today governor newsom is set to

san francisco to half moon bay. and it was just this time last week when we were still stuck in that heat wave. so it's just been really nice to get in on all of these comfortable temperatures. and now once we hit wednesday, we'll see a quick moving system drop down. there's really not a great chance of rain with it. the way we're seeing things right at this point, because of that northerly path of the storm, it's just having a hard time picking up moisture from the pacific. there will be some rain chances with it, but it really looks like it's going to be on the eastern side. so maybe a spotty shower there. wednesday. the larger headline, we're really looking ahead towards that we want to get out ahead of is the chance here of some dry and gusty winds thursday, friday and saturday as high pressure sets up over the pacific. low pressure in nevada. it's going to create that wind moving across northern california that will be very dry and gusty. so because of the way we think that weather pattern is going to set up, w

it's an almost full moon. the hunter moon, this time of year will be peaking here in a couple of days. so look forward to it. couple of bright evenings the next few nights. this is your view right now from the east bay hills, looking down into the bay. definitely less fog that we saw yesterday, a much clearer view. as for fog tracker not showing a whole lot this morning. that low that's sitting to the north and west of us. those talking about it yesterday resulting in that opportunity of a sprinkle or 2 come wednesday after wednesday, though, this low is going to have a whole different impact on us as it moves inland. it's going to stir up some really dry offshore winds that will funnel right here into the bay area. and with those fire danger increases from thursday into saturday, in particular. you can see winds are relatively calm this morning. but as we zapped through the next few days, eventually working our way towards thursday, winds shift direction entirely becoming offshore with the regular winds aroun

it's an asteroid circling the main moon. the moon we know.t will be with us in earth's gravity for about two months before heading back out to space. it's a little bit hard to follow. so, we came up with a demonstration that i hope will make it clear. imagine that i am the earth and guillermo is my moon. guillermo, would you mind orbiting me? [ cheering ] so, this is the earth-moon relationship we're used to. but now that we have a mini moon, for a limited time only, it looks like this. [ applause ] hi mini-moon. how you? welcome. >> hi, jimmy. >> jimmy: hi. so for the next eight weeks, the mini moon will be orbiting like this. and then, on november 25th, it'll do this. >> guillermo: weeeeeeee. >> jimmy: it will wander back out into the universe and be gone. [ applause ] are you getting dizzy? >> guillermo: a little bit. >> jimmy: a little bit. go back to your spot. hopefully, donald trump will be leaving our orbit in a couple months too. [ cheering ] trump was in tuscaloosa saturday to take in the alabama-georgia football game. here he is, d

moon pumpkin festival. you. >> pumpkin weighing is set to last throughout the morning into the afternoon as we get details as to the final weight of that winning pumpkin. we'll keep you updated. that's very latest here in half moon michael thomas will send it back to you live in san francisco. muni has hit its highest ridership since the start of the pandemic. passing 500,000. >> average daily riders for the first time since february of 2020 in september, a muni officials say that they saw 521,000 a day on average up 74% since 2019 city officials say that recent improvement projects to stations like the one on van ness. they've been real. big reason why. blue shield is laying off dozens of employees statewide and before the holidays it's company. the company that tracks public layoffs released a new reports saying that 16 employees will be impacted from the bay area. others are going to be let go from the counties of sacramento, san joaquin and los angeles. whether time now as we get a live look outside tra

so if you live near half moon bay or all the way up into bodega bay, you might already see it. we're going to get about 100th of an inch at that point. here we go. all the way into our sunday forecast, though early morning hours by 4 a.m. take your eyes to the skies all the way to the north. areas like santa rosa stretching all the way over into napa could receive around 100th of an inch of rain in certain communities, and will continue to dry up as we head into the afternoon hours. at that point, with beautiful conditions lasting into early next week, cooler conditions too i should add. here's what we're looking at right now. still holding on tight to 70 for the time being. for today and tomorrow along the bay. but right around the corner we're right back into the 60s with some partly cloudy skies and a little bit of sunshine trickled in there too. as we head into our tuesday forecast. now we make our way into our inland spots. a similar trend. 80s today, 70s as early as tomorrow, and we hold on tight to those low 70s for the time being with wait for it cooler weather as we he

europa is almost the same size as our own moon but that's where the similarity ends.u can see cracks and ridges, which has been caused byjupiter�*s powerful gravity stretching and squashing it. and it's that movement that scientists believe has melted the ice underneath to create a vast, salty ocean, which has got twice as much water than all the earth's oceans combined. these telescope pictures show what seem to be jets of water spurting from europa, more than 100 miles into space. europa clipper is making 50 different flybys around the moon's surface, catching any particles that might have been thrown up into the atmosphere, and then it can do a chemical composition analysis to find out, are there any amino acids? are there any sulphites? those really key building blocks that we know are essential for life here on earth. the results will take us a giant step forward in knowing whether life is possible on this icy world. pallab ghosh, bbc news. over the past year, two young people who live in gaza — 23—year—old aya and khalid, a father of five, have been filming thei
