| 0:00.0 | At TFL, we're making journeys safer for everyone, and that includes improving safety on London's roads. |
| 0:07.4 | That's why we and London boroughs are lowering more speed limits to 20 miles per hour, |
| 0:12.3 | because 20 miles per hour roads have already reduced collisions resulting in deaths or |
| 0:16.8 | serious injuries by 24%. That is how we're making journeys in London safer and brighter for everyone. |
| 0:24.8 | Such TFL improvement plan to the Mayor of London and TFL every journey matters. |
| 0:35.2 | This is CBSI and World Behind the Black with Bob Zimmerman Voyager 2. Lost somewhere at the edge |
| 0:41.3 | of the solar system until Bob had they found it, what have they found? They have not reestablished |
| 0:47.3 | communication, we didn't know, but they have detected a weak signal from it that suggests the |
| 0:53.4 | spacecraft is still functioning properly, and so they're going to try to use that signal to try to |
| 0:59.8 | regain, reorient the craft and regain full communications. If that attempt doesn't work, |
| 1:06.2 | they are very confident that when October rolls around and it does its automatic orientation |
| 1:12.6 | reset that's planned, this weak signal tells them that it's going to happen. So we're hopeful that |
| 1:19.8 | they might get control, we can regain communication sooner, but this signal tells us that when October |
| 1:26.0 | rolls around, they will recover this spacecraft entirely. Perseverance taking self, no, not |
| 1:31.6 | self is taking pictures of ingenuity, what's ingenuity up to? Ingenuity has completed its 50, |
| 1:37.7 | third flight landed in a position that actually Perseverance has now arrived at and it's only |
| 1:44.0 | 200 feet away, and so being that close, it took a great picture of ingenuity, one of the |
| 1:49.5 | hasn't taken a lot of pictures that haven't been closed together recently, so I put that picture |
| 1:53.6 | up behind the black, what's really cool is sometime this week, ingenuity is supposed to do its 54th |
| 1:59.8 | flight, and that flight is only going to be a hot straight up and straight down, 16 feet up, 16 feet |
| 2:04.5 | down, and it's to just simply, they call it localizing the helicopter to basically get a better idea of |
| 2:10.6 | how it's functioning and how it's responding to software, and Perseverance is in a perfect place |
