artemis mission was postponed. basically there was an engine malfunction. artemis one is the first in a series of missions that would return humans to the moon for the first time since 1972. the launch team discovered a bleed in one of the rocket s four engines. cnn s space correspondent joins us. explain more of what happened and then what happens next. reporter: yeah, so, victor, essentially we all thought that this was an engine issue. what we learned during the press conference, the first post-scrub press conference that just wrapped up, is that nasa officials believe it s not so much an engine issue. the primary culprit was an issue with the cooling system that cools that particular engine, engine number three. they ve got to get that engine to the right temperature before liftoff because sthey don t wan the liquid hydrogen and oxygen to shock the system. it seems to be that is where the biggest problem was. they are troubleshooting now. another problem we learned ab
and can the federal government do anything to fix it? the transportation secretary is our guest. this is what we re watching at this hour. thank you so much for being here. i m kate bolduan. there are several developing stories we re tracking at this hour. first and foremost, 1 in 100 year flood bringing dallas to a stand fill with more than 9 inches of rain falling in 24 hours. at least one person was killed when her car was swept away by some of the floodwaters. and the threat is not over yet. and in a cnn and washington post exclusive, a whistle-blower complaint from a former top twitter employee claims the social media giant has major security problems that poses a threat to users, company shareholders and national security. and former president donald trump is suing the u.s. government over the fbi search of his home two weeks ago now. his legal team wants an independent third party appointed to review the materials seized by the feds. let s begin with this major wea
out in this letter, and you just laid out here, what is the next step? i m kind of because i m wondering why you don t just require it now rather than ask them to step up? well, what we have now is a both/and strategy. there is three things we re doing at once. we have a number of investigations and enforcement actions about the rules that exist. we have new rules that are going through the legal process to elevate and expand passenger rights, and i m calling on the airlines to step up their game before we have to do even more. we re going to continue to did all of these things until we have an acceptable experience for passengers. again, i understand that you re never going to have zero cancellations. there is always going to be a storm somewhere, a surprise somewhere, an issue somewhere. but we need a stronger system. and we re expecting airlines that collect revenue by selling tickets to be prepared to service the tickets they sell. you are in tampa right now promoting infrast

reporter: they have to. they have to leave them up. it takes a week or so to take them down. even then they would clawing the streets, wolf, and they want the streets open for people to evacuate. more than 20 of these cranes in the city behind me, everywhere you look, you see they have. we see at least ten from this hotel balcony right here. it s a sign of the progress in this city. they are built to withstand 145 mile an hour winds. as you have been reporting, wolf, irma is going to hit as a category 5 storm somewhere in florida. that will bring wind gusts of more than 145 miles an hour, 160 miles an hour and that could be extremely, extremely dangerous. now, these cranes are fastened to the buildings very, very tightly. but one feature here is that the boom, the arms that you see up there, they are not tied down. if they were tied down it would provide too much resistance and work like a sail and pull everything down. those booms are loose and they re designed to work like a
