Impacting the sleeping quarters and birthing areas of that ship and forcing sailors to use satellite cell phones in order to communicate with their higher headquarters as they tried to keep the ship immediately afloat immediately after the collision. investigators are most interested in finding out how this collision could have taken place without any of the crew aboard the fitzgerald being able to detect the incoming cargo ship and avoid the collision. now they are going to be reviewing radar d...

Cell phones to actually call that in, so there was a bit of a delay in terms of when to kind of headquarters was notified of the collision. of course the cargo ship that struck the fitzgerald itself wasnt aware of what had happened until sometime later, radioing that in about an hour later. so there were definitely some issues. again, one thing theyre reviewing is radar data from the aegis weapons system aboard the fitzgerald, very sophisticated, looking through that to understand how that cargo...

Hitting power lines. >> so we are concerned, obviously. we are concerned both from an infrastructure and a public safety -- i think public safety is the number one concern for us. we are asking the public that if they are in the vicinity obviously the cable could be problematic, the blimp itself is about two football fields long. so we are asking the public to notify local law enforcement officials as this aerostat kind of descends and does what its doing, based on what the weather conditions ar...

I believe was the number, of these particular blimps and 3 of them at one point in time became untethered. and it took you 7 hours to deflate one of them. can you tell me about that process. >> well, yeah, brooke. we actually didnt deflate it. we just monitored it, much like what is going on right now, and watched it float. and then in that particular case, the forward operating base it came from was near baghdad, and the doggone thing floated all the way up toward mosul, a little over 150 miles...

Collection on the bottom which has a lot of in this case since it was used here in the united states traffic data, radar data, and its important that we capture that data. so its got a pod and youre going to try to secure that thing. now, bear in mind also that the intelligence ad everything that was processed through that has now been downloaded into the °#á$áz its recoverable. so the point is, you might be able to write this thing off, but youveu! a pretty powerful sensor capability that y...
