00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:14,960 You'll be interested to know. 4 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:23,720 Forty-eight years ago, today, in 1976, NASA's robotic spacecraft, Viking 2, landed on Mars 5 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:27,300 after a nearly year-long journey. 6 00:00:27,300 --> 00:00:32,920 It began relaying information about the planet's atmosphere and soil, as well as color photographs 7 00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,520 of the rocky surface. 8 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:41,560 This significant achievement marked a milestone in planetary exploration and contributed greatly 9 00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:45,320 to our understanding of Mars. 10 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,400 So now you know. 11 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:53,560 And now, it's time for the Surf Report. 12 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:58,360 Expect knee-to-thigh high swell on Tuesday, with glassy conditions in the early morning 13 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:03,480 and semi-choppy by afternoon due to onshore winds. 14 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:08,400 Wednesday and Thursday mornings will feature waist-high swell, glassy initially, turning 15 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,120 semi-choppy later. 16 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:16,920 Friday morning will have waist-high swell and occasional chest-high sets, becoming semi-choppy 17 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,480 in the afternoon. 18 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:23,440 Tuesday in Encinitas and North County. 19 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:28,080 It's looking glassy in the morning until 9 at 2 feet. 20 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:34,120 Then it gets a little choppy midday, but should ease up for a fair sunset session. 21 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:40,920 Best time to ride is at 6 a.m. with the one-and-a-half-foot incoming low tide, when the north-northwest 22 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:48,720 swell is one-and-a-half feet at 13 seconds and the variable wind is 2 mile per hour. 23 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:54,840 The first high tide Tuesday will be 4 and a half foot just before 1030 a.m. with a one-and-a-half 24 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,600 foot low tide at 4. 25 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:04,960 The nearshore buoy at Beacons reads 73 degrees for the water temperature. 26 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:10,760 This morning it's foggy and feels like 62 degrees with no wind. 27 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:17,400 The sunset will take place at 7.09 and it will rise again tomorrow at 6.25. 28 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:22,920

00:02:37,600 Tonight expect patchy fog after 11 p.m. with partly cloudy skies, a low around 69, and 31 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,680 light winds. 32 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,200 Looking ahead in the

marathon from San Diego, California to Tijuana, Mexico is 46 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,000 set to take place on September 15. 47 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:54,840 Organized by three friends, two United States citizens and one Mexican, this one-of-a-kind 48 00:03:54,840 --> 00:04:01,480 race starts at Las Americas Premium Outlets in Sandy Sidro and finishes at the westernmost 49 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:06,560 corner of the U.S.-Mexico border in Playa de Tijuana. 50 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:12,240 A parallel 10-kilometer race will occur solely on the Tijuana side. 51 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:21,080 The event aims to unite the running communities of both cities. 52 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,480 Now on to sports. 53 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:29,120 A series of posters appeared in Philadelphia on Monday depicting Vice President Kamala Harris 54 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:34,840 in an Eagles helmet, declaring her the official candidate of the NFL team. 55 00:04:34,840 --> 00:04:39,240 However, the Eagles state the posters are counterfeit. 56 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:43,640 The team is working to remove these misleading political ads. 57 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:48,400 The green posters, spotted around the city, show Harris holding a football with the phrase 58 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:52,720 – official candidate of the Philadelphia Eagles. 59 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:57,200 The posters appeared at various locations in Philadelphia. 60 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:05,280 An NFL team endorsing a candidate is unusual, as the league promotes a nonpartisan initiative. 61 00:05:05,280 --> 00:05:07,720 In local sports. 62 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:14,680 On Saturday, San Diego State opened their season with a dominant 45-14 win over Texas 63 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,400 A&M Commerce. 64 00:05:17,400

defense held firm, forcing three turnovers. 67 00:05:32,420 --> 00:05:39,640 In Vegas, USC pulled off a thrilling 27-20 win over LSU. 68 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:46,160 Miller Moss led the Trojans with 378 yards passing and a touchdown. 69 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:53,520 Perron Hudson added 83 yards receiving, and the defense made key stops to seal the win. 70 00:05:53,520 --> 00:06:01,240 Last night, the Padres wrapped up their series with a 3-0 win over the Tigers at Petco Park. 71 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:08,240 Joe Musgrove pitched 5-2 thirds scoreless innings, allowing just four hits. 72 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:15,620 Lewis Arraiz delivered a crucial RBI single, and Josh Hader notched his 31st save. 73 00:06:15,620 --> 00:06:23,680 The Padres, now 78-61, sit second in the NL West, five games behind the Dodgers. 74 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:28,880 Tomorrow night, the Padres kick off a new series at Petco against the Tigers. 75 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:38,620 In top news, about 40% of

support. 78 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:51,920 A YouGov study with Alzheimer's Research United Kingdom found that only 49% recognized 79 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,800 memory loss as a dementia symptom. 80 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:59,360 22% had no idea how it affects people. 81 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:05,400 Early signs like losing smell and struggling with tasks often go unnoticed. 82 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:10,440 Dementia can affect driving through vision changes, balance issues, and visospatial awareness 83 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,160 loss, making safe driving difficult. 84 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:18,600 If struggling with these while driving, seek medical help. 85 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:25,520 In business news, Crypto bros are no longer flipping watches, creating issues for luxury 86

89 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:40,260 Europe's top luxury companies, including Rikmont and Air Mace, reported declines in 90 00:07:40,260 --> 00:07:42,320 watch sales. 91 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:49,240 The vibrant secondhand market, worth $25 billion annually, has seen a glut of inventory, causing 92 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,440 longer wait times for resale. 93 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,560 Speculators who once drove up prices have pulled back. 94 00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:02,240 While certain brands like Hatech Philippe benefit from pent-up demand, others face a 95 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,320 mixed outlook. 96 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:10,480 Nine consecutive quarters of falling values are challenging for luxury watchmakers. 97 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:15,120 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just over

--> 00:09:24,720 Scientists have identified the gene responsible for thorns in plants like roses, raspberries, 113 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,760 and blackberries. 114 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:32,560 Known as prickles, these defenses evolved independently in various species. 115 00:09:32,560 --> 00:09:38,040 Researchers found that the gene coding for thorns, called lonely guy or log, is consistent 116 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,040 across different plant families. 117 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:46,840 This discovery, published in the journal Science, reveals that the thorny trait evolved at least 118 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:51,360 28 times over 400 million years. 119 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:56,680 Using CRISPR technology, scientists have engineered thornless varieties of tomatoes and tomatoes 120 00:09:56,680 --> 00:10:02,960 and roses, potentially making gardening and harvesting easier and more accessible. 121 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:07,360 Entertainment news. 122 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:15,240 The long-awaited sequel, Beetlejuice 2, arrived 36 years after Tim Burton's original 1988 123 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:16,240 film. 124 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:21,960 Despite early development, the sequel faced numerous delays. 125 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:27,680 Burton and Michael Keaton shifted focus to Batman, and Winona Ryder reunited with Burton 126 00:10:27,680 --> 00:10:30,560 for Edward Scissorhands. 127 00:10:30,560 --> 00:10:37,120 The project saw renewed interest in the 2010s, with Seth Graham Smith writing the script. 128 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:42,000 However, Warner Bros. paused it in 2019. 129 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:47,280 Burton's passion reignited while working on his recent movie, Wednesday. 130 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:53,480 The sequel reunites writer Keaton and Katherine O'Hara, with new additions Monica Bellucci, 131 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,240 Justin Theros, and Jenna Ortega. 132 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:01,360 The story explores three generations of the Dietz family. 133 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:07,160 Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day. 134 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:14,120 And today, our quote comes from the Indian spiritual leader, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. 135 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:20,520 What he said, happiness radiates like the fragrance from a flower and draws all good 136 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,600 things towards you. 137 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,160 And that's a wrap for this morning. 138 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:32,060 You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some captivating
