They both concerned the House of Representatives and President Donald Trump.

Carla's juice with it down the middle explanation of what's going on.

First, Democratic leaders of the House have announced they will bring two articles of impeachment to formal charges against President Trump.

Those charges are abusive power and obstruction of Congress.

They're related to a controversial phone call the American president had in July with the president of Ukraine.

Democrats say President Trump abused his power by pressuring Ukraine to investigate the son of political rival Joe Biden.

Ah, former U.

S vice president who's running for the presidency in 2020.

Democrats say President Trump obstructed Congress by not fully cooperating with House impeachment investigation.

There are questions about whether these two charges are impeachable offenses Democrats generally say they are.

Republicans generally say they aren't.

The Constitution says a president can be removed from office if convicted of quote, treason, bribery or other high crimes and misdemeanors.

Both President Trump and Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelinsky have said nothing illegal took place on their phone call, and House Republicans say their chambers investigation was unfair and biased against the U.

S.

President.

But the stage is set for a vote next week on the House floor, where a simple majority of lawmakers will determine whether there are sufficient grounds for impeachment.

If the House, which is controlled by Democrats, votes that there are a trial will be held in the Senate, which is controlled by Republicans, and analysts expect it will find the president not guilty and that he can remain in office.

But all this is being watched very closely because neither of those votes has actually happened yet.

A the US Mexico Canada trade agreement.

It would replace NAFTA, the North American Free Trade Agreement that took effect in 1994 but that President Trump has called the worst trade deal in American history for most of his term.

His administration's worked with Canada and Mexico on a new agreement, and the U.

S M.

C.

A is the result.

But it has to be approved by Congress first, and though House Democrats now say it's much better than NAFTA, they had some initial objections to the deal Yesterday, Democratic leaders said they'll support it.

Now that some revisions have been made, observers say this will be a legislative success for President Trump if it passes in the House and Senate.

12th trivia.

More than 44% of the land in the United States is covered by what concrete farmland, forests or water.

Agricultural land takes up about 44% of the land in America, followed by forests, which account for 33%.

Some growers are promoting vertical and underground farms as relatively new ways to cultivate crops without taking up much space.

This can happen in buildings, shipping containers or tunnels, as you're about to see.

There are some disadvantages to this.

For one thing, they're expensive to get started.

Even if you already have an abandoned building or tunnel to start with, you're gonna need the technology that can mean a lot of artificial light and energy use.

For another, these farming methods might not work for all crops, and it could result in higher costs for what is grown.

But when everything goes right deep under the mountains of South Korea, with no natural sunlight, something is growing.

It's a salad.

This is the world's first commercial tunnel fire constructed inside a disused highway tunnel and chair J.

The tunnel's sharp curve caused several collisions, so they decided to carve out a new, more gently curved route right next door.

The old tunnel, all 600 meters of it, is now being used to grow salads, leafy greens, even strawberries and to encourage them to grow.

Classical music is being played throughout the tunnel.

Also, what gives the farm?

It's pink glow.

They emit only the spectrum of light that plants used to photosynthesize Guendogan into a farmer s boudin.

And that's what makes this farm uniquely successful.

In fact, Che has plans to build many more farms using the same technology, but in suitable urban locations I put on in 20 years or more literate in Guangdong is as exonerees.

Wait, don't!

Toys don't get so good on one thing, S L s and ornaments are two terms you'll need to know going into our next story S L s is short for space launch system a massive rocket that NASA hopes will return people to the moon.

It's now assembled and ready for testing, but it's seen a lot of delays and cost increases along the way.

Artemus is NASA's next moon program, and a space industry analyst says it's already had trouble getting the funding it needs to get off the ground.

It's taken seven years to get here over $14 billion.

So, Jim, tell us, why does NASA need S l s?

So the S L s rocket is the only rocket right now in the world that's gonna be qualified to take humans all the way to the moon.

Of course, we have other rockets that are qualified to fly humans, but there is nothing that takes, takes humans all the way to the moon.

And so when we do the Artemus program, which is a return to the moon sustainably with commercial partners and international partners, where we're gonna use the resource is of the moon toe, learn how to live and work for long periods of time.

And then we're gonna take all of that knowledge on to Mars.

This is the This is the key capability that's going to enable all of that to happen, right?

One thing that would be great to have some clarity on is the per launch cost of S l s.

So when we think about the cost of an S L s rocket per launch, it really, quite frankly depends on how many we buy in a certain package.

So if you buy one S L s rocket, it's gonna be very expensive, I would say on the order of $1.6 billion.

If we buy multiple SL s rockets, maybe as many as 10 or or 12 it can get down under under a $1,000,000,000.800 million dollars per copy.

But look, these air all estimates.

At this point, NASA needs to sit down with its prime contractor, Boeing, to negotiate the best solution Thio getting the right mix of the number of rockets and the cost for rocket.

But at this point, we're under contract to build, too.

And of course we want to go to the moon in 2024.

We're gonna need at least 1/3 on maybe even more rockets after that.

Now, earlier this year, you told me that Artemus would cost in the range of 20 to $30 billion.

Are you still on track for that?

I think that that could prove to be a very accurate number.

I will tell you we are working through a budget request right now for 2021.

And in that budget request, we will have the out years which will show the entire cost of the Artemus program to land the first woman in the next man on the south Pole of the Moon by 2024 s.

So, yes, I think that's that's probably in the ballpark.

But I'm not gonna nail down any numbers until we negotiate the final solution on all of these different budget parameters.

And can you give us any further details about the lucky individuals who will be flying on this thing?

We know that one of them will be a woman.

Can you give us any more details on who that female might be?

Well, I'll tell you this.

We do have a very diverse, highly qualified astronaut corps, and we've got a number of women that are perfectly capable of doing the job.

And they were all very excited about the opportunity to be the first woman on the moon for 10 out of 10.

Here's an event where getting the ax is how you get the party started.

This is the World Acts throwing championships.

It was held recently in Arizona, attracting ax thrower from yes, around the world.

And before you laugh, the prize was $15,000 and the event was broadcast on ESPN.

This is not something you should practice in your living room or probably anywhere outside a designated acts range.

But if you're a Lumberjacks, who knows?

Jackson hacks about the exact saying in some would say relaxing sport of axing.

You wouldn't be slack sing or finding anything taxing about attacks, saying a sort of board game, The test, your mettle.

Will you get a handle on busting the competition's chops?
