So what you tell yourself really matters. So lets go back to that stress thought, i cant do this. What can you say instead . So revise that thought to, im gonna do well if i try hard enough, or, i can do this i just need to focus. Things that make you feel more confident will help reduce that stress. Interesting. So now ive made myself feel more confident. Any other tips you can give me . Yes, a great inthemoment tool for reducing your stress is to focus on your breathing. You can do that in a lot of different ways, but one tool that i find to be really easy and effective is counting your breaths. So what you want to do here is count the number of breaths that youre taking. So you say one when youre breathing in and say two when youre breathing out, three when youre breathing in, four when keep going until it feels right. It might be 10 times. It might be 15 times. So let me show you what that looks like. My feet are on the floor, and im sitting comfortably in a chair. Im gonna breathe in. [ inhales deeply ]. One. And breathe out. [ exhales deeply ]. Two. Breathe in three. [ inhales deeply ]. Breathe out four. [ exhales deeply ] im feeling calmer, and i hope you are, too. I think i could definitely try that, dr. Jones. Thank you very much. Thank you. The bottom line is dont let stress take control of you. There are ways you can take control of your stress. For teen kids news, im emily. Weve got lots more to tell well be back in a minute. Theres an entire History Lesson in the state flag. You just need to know what to [ uptempo march plays ] virginia is often called the mother of president s. Four of our first five president s were born there. Since then, four more president s have been proud virginians. Virginias state flag is a reference to overthrowing king george. You see the roman goddess virtus standing atop a tyrant, and shes holding a sword in one hand, a spear in the other, and the tyrant is laying on the ground with his crown knocked off of his head. Its hard to see, but the tyrant holds a broken chain and a broken whip. Sic Semper Tyrannis means thus always to tyrants. With flag facts, im veronique. Bet you didnt know that one of your favorite childhood books was written on a bet. The publisher of the dr. Seuss books challenged the author to write an entire book using fewer than 50 different words. And wrote green eggs and ham. And so he won the bet. All i can say is glad i am that he wrote green eggs and ham. This Important Message is brought to you by the National Road safety foundation. [ hard rock music plays ] [ midtempo music plays ] [ hard rock music plays ] im ready to go. [ engine starts, tires squeal ] dude, im running late. Ill be there as fast as i can.

Nuclear power when used for peaceful purposes, it can light up entire cities. When used for war, Nuclear Power can devastate entire cities. Nicole reports on how weapons based on splitting a tiny atom set in motion a global arms race. [ dramatic piano music plays ] Nuclear Weapons put an end to world war ii. The bombs dropped on hiroshima destruction and the surrender of japan. Nuclear weapons have never been used since, except as a threat to prevent further war not with the japanese, but with the soviet russians. One of those threats was here in the arizona desert. Its now a fascinating museum. This site was built because it was in the 1960s during the cold war, where we were sort of at war with the former soviet union. So when the soviets aimed their Nuclear Missiles at the United States, we aimed missiles back at them missiles called icbms. Icbm stands for intercontinental ballistic missile. That means it could fly from our continent to another continent, carrying a Nuclear Warhead. One kind of icbm was the titan ii. It was a giant rocket kept armed and ready to launch in an underground chamber called a in all, there were 54 silos spread across uninhabited areas of the u. S. Theyre no longer in use, but you can take a tour of one thanks to the Arizona Aerospace foundation. Well, nicole, first of all, welcome to Launch Complex 5717. Thank you. Were gonna go underground. Whoohoo Nuclear Missiles are always kept underground because that is the safest place you can be in a nuclear war. That is true. So were gonna go down about 35 feet. [ gong crashes, mysterious music plays ] hey, watch your step here. As i followed chuck, he explained what it was like to visit the site when it was manned by the air force and fully operational. Visitors didnt just drop by. So, this little area that we just came through is called the entrapment cage. Were gonna keep everybody that comes in locked in this little cage until we figure out that they actually belong here looking at them on a Closedcircuit Television camera. They got to read a special code to get in. Huh. Whats the special code . With every person who comes on the complex. Its whats called a onetime code. Now that its a museum, we dont need a code, but we still need to get past these special doors. Theyre designed so that one door only opens after the other door closes. And the walls down here are super thick, four feet of concrete. Chuck led us to the nerve center of the big underground complex. Well, this is the control center. Wow and this is where the crew waited while they were waiting for the order to launch their missile, and lucky for us that they never got that far and were all still here to talk about it. Mmhmm. So, the control center is pretty cool. The cool thing about the control center is that its a threestory building, so the crews quarters is right upstairs. Think about that. Its like a motel, too. And then downstairs is an equipment room. And the three floors are not attached to the walls. Huh. The entire structure is from eight huge springs around the perimeter of the room. So in response to a nuclear shock wave, we would just bounce up and down or sway from side to side, and wed be safe. So, really, what all of this equipment is, all of this is just designed to keep the missile in a constant state of readiness and to let us launch it if we get the legitimate order to do that. Wow. When we return, i get to experience what it meant to be responsible for launching a [ suspenseful music plays ] [ theme music were in the command center at the Titan Missile museum near tucson, arizona. Chuck is running me through the complex procedure of launching a titan ii Nuclear Missile. [ suspenseful music plays ] so, nicole, im gonna ask you to have a seat in the commanders chair right there. And well talk about whats the process for actually launching the missile. First of all, the only person in the United States who can authorize the use of Nuclear Weapons is. The president. President , right. I knew you would know that. Its in all the movies, right . Wherever the president goes, hes followed around by this guy with a briefcase, and they often refer to that as the football. If the president were to open the briefcase and send the message to launch, it set off a response like this at every missile silo around the country. [ alarm beeping, static ] [ speaking indistinctly ] so, you and i are gonna grab our decoder books and start writing down the message in these notebooks. Were gonna write every letter and number that we hear down in the spaces provided. And it goes on and on for like 35 characters. When were done copying the message, were gonna swap notebooks and check each others work. Again so you can check your work. And if were convinced that weve copied the right message, then we have what is called a valid message and authorization to take our locks off this big red safe. And there are two locks on the safe. Theres a lock for me and a lock for you. And we know our own combinations, but we dont know each others, so we both have to agree to open the safe. Out of the safe, were gonna take a couple different things. Were gonna take a group of authenticator cards, and they look Something Like this. So, in our secret message, they gave us a code word. And were gonna look at the first two letters of the code word. Say its q, 5, all right . And were gonna open this envelope up. [ blows ] and inside, theres the whole code word. And if that code word matches the code word in our radio message, then this is a legitimate order from the president of the United States. Attention, crew. We have a valid launch order at this time. Would you acknowledge, please . [ speaking indistinctly ] this is [indistinct] all right, the next thing we take out of the safe is our launch keys. It takes two keys to fire the missile. You put a key in right here cause youre the commander. I put a key in way over here cause im the deputy. Keys need to be turned within two seconds of each other and held in the turn position for five seconds to start the launch. That guarantees that two people are required to do this. One person cant run back and forth, all right . What else . Also, in our secret message, we get the time of launch. Write it with what amounts to a crayon right across the face of the clock so you dont forget. And last but not least, we get the secret unlock code for the missile. This next secret code will unlock valves to fuel the missile. It comes in with a launch order. The code is complex to make sure the launch is very deliberate. You need to accomplish four things to launch the missile, and they are authenticate the your keys, figure out the time of launch, enter the bbl combination. Once youve done that, you are good to go. All set, commander . All set. Now, first of all, lets just reiterate that this is a retaliatory weapon. So we would not be asked to launch this unless the enemy have already fired at us. So we can assume that topside, up there, Nuclear Bombs are going off someplace. So this is our cue to go. All right, commander. What you need to do is give me a countdown like, three, two, one, turns keys, all right . Oh, and by the way, crew always use their left hand to turn the key. Oh. Is there a reason for that . Yeah, there is. The reason the crew use their left hand is because, if you use your right hand, you obscure your view of these lights. Its important to see when those lights come on. Okay, commander. Give me the countdown, and well send this missile on its way. Okay. Three, two, one. Turn keys and hold. I see a light come on. Okay, you may release. Thats all there is to it. The little green light that says launch enable, for all intents and purposes, that little light should say, welcome to world war iii. Its comforting to point out that these missiles were only one. Red alert, red alert, red alert. Lets have a comm check, please. Geo, loud and clear. Roger. Initiateterminalcount order has been received. Powerhouse, start locks only. Launch exercise checklist, please. Oh, and one more thing the museum wants everyone to know the missile here is no longer armed and dangerous. This is the top of the silo. This structure right behind me is the silo door. Rides back and forth on Railroad Tracks like this. Weighs 760 tons. Can be fully opened in 20 seconds. The missile is right under that we put a glass window on there to satisfy the soviets so they could look down there with spy satellites and figure out that its not an active missile. In time of war, this is where the missile would come out and begin its fire. Well continue our tour of this Incredible Museum when [ suspenseful music plays ] [ theme mu [ mysterious music plays ] were below the surface of the arizona desert. Today this is the Titan MissileNational Historic landmark a museum. But for many years, this missile site was on constant alert. Just sitting in the commanders chair gives you the feeling of the tremendous responsibility these officers had. Yvonne morris used to sit in it for real. Chair, from 1980 to 1984, because i was a titan ii missile combat crew commander who was stationed at this site during that time. Now she helps run the museum, but, back in the day, she was in the hot seat. I was in charge of the crew that wouldve launched the missile that was based here if we had been ordered to do so. How did it help keep us safe from attack . Well, the titan ii system, its job was peace through deterrence. That meant that we were supposed to show the former soviet union that, if they ever launched their missiles against us, that we would launch titan ii missiles among others against them and that we would retaliate with such force that they would not be able to survive it. And thats called mutual assured destruction. Mutual assured destruction its mad all right. And the memory of that tense time is the reason this museum exists. Museum because you cant know what the future is gonna be or you cant influence the future if you dont understand where you came from. And so, in the future, people are gonna have to make some very important decisions about Nuclear Weapons and how theyre used. And they can get the information or at least some of the information that they need to know to make those decisions right here. Interesting as the control center was, there was still a lot more to see on our tour. Okay, nicole, lets head down toward the silo, and, while were going, just gonna stop real quickly along the way. Theres something id like to show you. [ mysterious music plays ] these are propellanthandling suits. Wow. Propellant for titan ii is really toxic, and so, if youre gonna be working with it, you got to wear these suits. Theyre like moon suits, but theyre not airconditioned. [ laughs ] so if youre wearing one on the surface and its like 105 degrees, about 15 minutes is all you can stand. Oh, my gosh. You want to try the helmet on . Absolutely. Check this out. Go ahead. Oh, its heavy. Yeah, the whole suit, everything oxygen, everything weighs almost 50 pounds. [ music continues ] to get to the silo, wed need to walk through this large tunnel. Its called a cableway. A cableway is fully shockisolating. These are springs on both sides. And the reason is its carrying electric power cables from the silo, its carrying missiletelemetry cables over here, and its carrying piping to the control center on this side. So the whole thing is shockresistant . Thats right. If we got a hit, itd all stay together. But it never got tested. It never got tested. Thats a good thing. All right, nicole, were gonna go where we never take visitors. Ooh right this way. Wow so, here it is. This is the missile, huh . This is the missile. And the whole purpose, the only purpose of this whole big missile, is to deliver that Nuclear Warhead to a target on the other side of the world. Just that little bit of black at the top there . Just that little black cone at the top is the only part that actually makes it to the target. Everything else is thrown away in flight. For this huge missile. Oh, my gosh. How big is it . I will show you how big it is. Take a look over the edge. [ gasps ] wow it is 10 stories straight down. Its such a long way down that, to visit the bottom of the missile, we had to take an elevator. All right. All righty. This is so cool. Youll love this. Wow look up. [ gasps ] oh, my goodness. Whoa fortunately, america has never had to fire a Nuclear Missile in wartime and hopefully never will.
