Stranded Couple Rescued After Days; Be The Next Jacques Cousteau
BALDWIN: There was a big family reunion for one Wisconsin couple found safe after nearly a week stranded just outside Yellowstone National Park.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: We're OK.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: You're OK.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I'm home, I'm safe.</s>BALDWIN: Here's the story. Mark and Christine Watchke's car got stuck in heavy, heavy snow, subzero temperatures as they were leaving the park last Tuesday. In fact, this pair here, they were down to cookies and just a couple peanut butter and jelly sandwiches when this local rancher coming by on a snow mobile lucked upon them and discovered them. Family members told CNN affiliate KARE, they're so thankful this couple is alive and well.</s>GREG WATCHKE, MARK'S BROTHER: To get that call Monday morning and to hear the voice on -- it just -- I mean, again, you hear the phrase, words can't express, but now I really understand that.</s>BALDWIN: Authorities say the rancher told them the Watchke's had plenty of fuel in their car to periodically keep the engine going so they could stay warm. If you have ever dreamed of being an underwater explorer, you may soon be able to without getting wet. That's today's "Technovations."</s>BALDWIN (voice-over): Eric Stackpole and David Lang are two young entrepreneurs looking to become the next Jacques Cousteau.</s>ERIC STACKPOLE, OPENROV: Jacques Cousteau changed the way ocean exploration was done.</s>DAVID LANG, OPENROV: He invited people to explore along with him. So for us, it's the same thing.</s>BALDWIN: They're working on an underwater robotic submarine that anyone can own and use. Priced at less than $1,000, it would give amateur explorers Cousteau-like access. This is the "Open</s>ROV." STACKPOLE: ROV stands for remotely operated vehicle. I can put this in the water and fly it around. It's got a video camera on it so you can see what it sees live.</s>BALDWIN: Users build the ROVs themselves and are encouraged to submit new designs and ideas.</s>STACKPOLE: The open ROV is an open source community. If the ROV is having some sort of a problem and we can't figure out how to handle it, I can go to the forums. As I sleep, the problem is going across Europe. By the end of lunch, I could have five or six good solutions.</s>BALDWIN: Making it easier for the ever-changing ROV to go into more unchartered waters.</s>STACKPOLE: People often ask is, is this something that's a toy that's fun to build and play with or something you expect to be used by real researchers? Our answer certainly is both.</s>LANG: We hear from people all the time, conservation organizations who want to check on species, fish and game groups, teachers who want to get these into classrooms and we're excited about all of them.</s>BALDWIN: Coming up, the one-time Black Panther who decided to hijack a flight back in the 1980s is now back on U.S. soil because he wants to be. And CNN had the only reporter on that plane. We will tell you what happened when they touched down. Plus, explosive testimony today in the trial of that doctor accused of drugging and drowning his wife. Hear what an inmate said the doctor told him behind bars next.
