Field and how wide could the cone go? whats the latest technology? >> several technologies. side scan sonar would be the first tool. side scan would be towed off the bottom by a ship traveling at slow speed. the sonar array would be given a beam pattern about less than a kilometer wide, towing along about four knots and they would be looking realtime at the data, looking for anomalies on the bottom. if they were to find something that struck their interest, they would do multiple passes over it ...

Way we contribute to the operation is bee providing real time data of atmospheric pressure and then ocean currents that can be used to validate the models. >> so that the buoy we saw you drop at the top of the show, is that feeding information back to that computer now? >> its feeding information in real time to anyone who is capable of assimilating the data. so all the weather centers, all the operational centers, the u.s. navy, australian navy, they all are capable of reading our data and usin...

That feeding information back to that computer now? >> its feeding information in real time to anyone who is capable of assimilating the data. so all the weather centers, all the operational centers, the u.s. navy, australian navy, they all are capable of reading our data and using in their models. >> well go into the drift model so you can hopefully narrow the cone of uncertainty. chris, i understand you guys have some experience finding stuff, even off the coast of san diego. its not all that ...

Not a lot of rain the next 48 hours. its all west. the issue is the wind. everywhere youre going to see this red wind right there, thats 50 to 60 miles per hour. and thats just too much to get this. even with the ocean so deep and you get rollers not sharp waves like you get on lake erie because its so shallow, youre still going to have those white caps all day on sunday and into monday. its going to be unsearchable again. >> so using your scientific brain here, lets say this find this thing ton...

It just would have been much more dispersed and not so concentrated in one such dense area. >> youve looked at the analysis. you said if it were this is what i would see as the cone and those two windows but you dont think it is. rob, whats your point of view? >> well, i was thinking as i was listening to the explanation of the satellite image, one thing that bothers me is that i find it hard to believe that the chinese were not able to come up with a resolution that was considerably higher and ...

But the option was there and just to be fair to the capped cand system they do a good job of primary and secondary care but the united states has services that cannot be achieved. >> and the cone of care your wife needs would be difficult to obtain. it is great to have willness checks and those are wonderful things. but cathren it is troubling when faced with what you are. >> we appreciate you sharing your story and we pray for a successful outcome. you dont need that pressure on top it of fight...

>> now its time to begin the delicate process of raising the heavy concrete cone off her body, but one mistake and wendy could be hurt more seriously or even die. >> we decided to use air bags and lift this object up. >> the air bags are inflatable pads routinely used by rescuers to lift heavy objects, very heavy objects like trucks or trains. >> the high pressure air bags can lift up to 17 to 20 ton. >> they begin by digging out space under the edge of the concrete cone to make room for the air...
