AI That Fights Fires? | April 14, 2025
what's up, sunshine?
I'm Ky Wire.
Welcome to CNN 10.
I'm excited to be here kicking off another week of growth and opportunity with all of you.
Did you know that April 14th is look up at the sky day?
So be sure to take a moment to slow down, take a deep breath or smell the flowers, cool the soup.
Calling all the noise maybe do some cloud gazing and just be grateful for all those simple things in life we sometimes might take for granted.
For now let's get you your news.
We start with an historic launch by the private space flight company Blue Origin planning to launch the first all female crew in over 60 years to the edge of space and back from its launch site in Texas.
Among the six person crew are notable names like journalist Gail King, singer Katie Perry, and Lauren Sanchez pilot journalist and vice chair of the Bezos Earth Fund.
She's engaged to Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.
Joining them are film producer Kerannne Flynn, former NASA rocket scientist Aisha
Bo and bioastronautics research scientist Amanda Nuin.
The suborbital space tourism mission will be fully autonomous with no pilots on board and it'll last about 10 minutes.
The crew will travel just past the Carman line, a widely recognized demarcation of where space begins.
It is at 100 kilometers or 62 miles above sea level.
That's where the crew will experience a few minutes of microgravity not to mention
tremendous views of Earth before returning home.
Our Isabelle Rosales has more on this historic 31st flight of the New Shepard rocket
Liftoff.
For the first time in more than 60 years, an all female crew is set to blast off into space.
Blue Origin star-studded NS-31 mission is scheduled to launch from West Texas on April 14th on board the New Shepard vehicle.
Among the six person crew are singer Katy Perry, journalist Gale King and Lauren Sanchez pilot and fiance of Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos.
The crew is set to travel just past the Carmon line, the point widely recognized as where outer space begins and will experience a few minutes of microgravity before descending back to Earth.
Crew member and former NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bo spoke to CNN about her hope that this landmark voyage will inspire more women to shoot for the stars.
To see six women who are all incredibly unique who are very inspiring in their own right come together and globally on a campaign.
I think what you're going to see is not only more women but more people know that they can too become one of us and that they also can reach and work in these fields.
This will mark the first all female space mission since Soviet cosminaut Valentina
Terishova's solo mission back in 1963.
But the historic mission has also faced criticism including from actress Olivia Mun.
While co-hosting on NBC's Today Show with Jenna Bush Hager , Mun questioned the purpose of the mission and its cost
What, What are they doing?
Like why?
You know what I mean.
Like I I'm just saying this okay, I know this is probably not the the cool thing to say, but like there are so many other things that are so important in the world right now.
Like what like this, it's not they aren't asked.
I mean there's one astronaut, one astronaut, but like what are you guys going to do up in space?
What are you doing up there?
One crew member researcher and civil rights activist Amanda Wyn will conduct experiments about women's health during the 11-minute flight.
Wyn will make history becoming the first woman of Vietnamese or Southeast Asian descent in space.
Since their first successful crude space flight in 2021, Blue Origin has had 10 crude missions bringing more than 50 people to the edge of space including Star Trek actor William Shatner who was brought to tears by the experience.
I hope I never recover from this.
Pop quiz hot shot.
What famous mascot received so much fan mail that the post office assigned him his own zip code in 1964, Michelin man Smokey the Bear, Tony the Tiger or Pillsbury Doughboy.
If you said smoky bear smoking.
In 1950 a bear cub rescued from a forest fire in New Mexico took over for Bambi as a symbol of forest fire prevention.
And you can still send mail at Smokey Bear, Washington DC, 20252.
Smokey Bear has historically used his bear charm to inspire generations to help prevent fires.
And now researchers are using artificial intelligence to help predict fires and stop them before they start.
The European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts is now using an AI powered model to boost the accuracy of fire forecasts incorporating data like fire patterns, potential fuel sources and human activity into machine learning programs to improve on traditional weather models.
Our Derek Vanam shows us how scientists hope this technology will save lives and homes from wildfires in the future.
Researchers in Europe are using the power of AI to predict where wildfires will break out before the first ember even ignites.
Using machine learning, the European Center for Medium Range Weather Forecasts has developed a new model that takes into account a variety of factors to determine areas at risk of wildfires.
So historically for fire forecasting we use what's called the fire weather index
And this is a simple physics based model where we use four weather variables, temperature, wind, precipitation and humidity to forecast the chance that if so what we know from that is that it doesn't account for a lot of things.
It doesn't account for fuel.
It doesn't account for ignition sources and things like that.
So what we try to do here is we try to incorporate more data into a machine learning framework.
For example, in the recent LA wildfires, unusual wet weather conditions leading
up to the fires caused ample vegetation and growth that was then made flammable by exceptionally dry weather in winter.
So you see this new model would be able to take those factors into account and find
the specific areas most at risk.
This new method, the probability of fire having the memory of the fuel abundance in
their formulation allow to really identifies those region that could be much more affected compared to simpler method they only consider weather and this is why our prediction in this case was much more precise and pinpointed exact location when very close to Los Angeles where fire really occurred.
The danger wildfires pose is growing.
Just last year wildfires forced the displacement of 800,000 people the highest numbers since records began back in 2008.
Researchers hope the model can be used by fire officials to identify areas at the most risk of fires and prevent them before they start saving lives and homes in the process.
Today's story getting a 10 out of 10.
A mother and daughter duo going viral for one small act of kindness.
They had an enormous impact.
Taylor Denelli and her four-year-old daughter were shopping at a Barnes & Noble.
They saw a first time author set up with his stack of books hoping to sign some for people.
Only problem was nobody came up to him.
He was sitting there all alone.
Like I always say, you are more powerful than you know.
Take a look at how one powerful moment had an impact greater than they could
have ever imagined.
Taylor Denelli was shopping at a Barnes & Noble with her four-year-old daughter when they saw an author sitting alone at a book signing event.
We were there for probably half an hour and I didn't really see anybody else going over to his table or or anything like that.
And I thought "Yeah that would be really nice. You know I'm sure he would really appreciate if we went over and talked to him as well."
this amazing four-year-old girl came, marching up to me and she bravely said "I want to be an author when I grow up."
And I just created my first book.
And in that moment it was such a special moment.
She touched my heart.
Delli posted The Encounters to Tik Tok where it eventually got nearly 80 million views.
Now Stanley's book is listed as one of Amazon's best sellers.
You know I explained to her as much as you can explain to a four-year-old that we what we did really will change Mr Stanley's life and make his life a lot better.
And her first like without a second thought she's like "Mommy we could help everybody. Like we should keep helping people."
The video made an impact because she came into the moment with kindness and empathy.
And it shown the world that kindness matters.
It can change someone's life.
It changed mine.
Make someone smile today, y'all.
You never know when
You never know how, but you may just be the spark of joy that someone Needs.
