BAR HARBOR, Maine - Towns spotted along the coast in Maine are commonly known for two things -- lobster and whale watching. But scientists have noticed changing climate patterns over the past decade, and it’s causing changing patterns with different sea life.“The Gulf of Maine has historically been known as an important place for whales,” Allied Whale Marine Director Sean Todd said. “That has sort of changed because of climate, and the Gulf of Maine is slowly shifting in a way that is perhaps less attractive to the whales.”“What’s really emerged in the last decade or so is that this ecosystem is going through some really dramatic changes,” Dr. Andrew Pershing with the Gulf of Maine Research Institute said.Bar Harbor, Maine, is a town filled with restaurants and shops, A lot of what you see caters to tourists who frequent the town in the summer months.“Bar Harbor is a really fun town,” Zack Klyver, a former whale watch tour guide with over 30 years of experience, said. “It is full of magnificent life.”“I like to think of it as the place all the hippies went when they grew up,” Todd said.Fall marks the end of the tourism season, and many places close up shop for the winter.“A vast majority of jobs in bar harbor are due to the tourist industry,” Jeff Dobbs, a local documentary filmmaker and operator of the Acadia Channel.“If you come to Bar Harbor, there are three things you can do,” Todd said. “The first thing is you can visit Acadia National Park.” Todd goes on to explain the other two things you can do are eat lobster or go on a whale watch.“We carry about 50,000 to 60,000 people whale watching each summer,” Zack Klyver said. He works in part with Bar Harbor Whale Watch Company.The people are super excited when they see whales,” he said. “In recent years things have changed and we’ve had to go a lot farther to see whales.”Three-hour tours have become five-hour tours, to allow extra time to travel farther to find where the whales are. Klyver said they had a record July this year with the number of passengers they saw, but it was in part due to good weather conditions.“Our sightings have gone down in the last couple years,” Klyver explained.While whale watch trips look for all types of whales, these were the stats Klyver shared with Finback whale sightings:2000 - 160 trips with at least one Finback whale sighting2010 - 155 trips with at least one Finback whale sighting2017 - 5 trips with at least one Finback whale sightingThose numbers have since improved.“In past years we looked at our sighting success rate and we were often at 80 to 90 percent success in seeing whales,” Klyver said.“This was a very difficult year for us. It’s getting hard to study these animals because they’re just not around,” Todd said. “It used to be that whales were very predictable here in the Gulf of Maine.”Todd explained he thinks the ocean is warming to a point it’s no longer an attractive place for whales to come and they are making other choices in terms of looking for food.One of the species choosing to stay north is the endangered North Atlantic Right Whale.“The Right Whale population was recently estimated in 2017 at being about 411,” Klyver said. There are less than 100 viable, breeding females left.Meanwhile, Todd said the Gulf is seeing more warm water species, including more Mola Mola sunfish.“The Gulf of Maine is one of the most rapidly warming patches of saltwater anywhere on the planet,” Todd said.Doctor Andrew Pershing agrees -- and had the science to back it up.“Over the last 30 years or so, we have warmed at a rate that’s about four times the global ocean average,” Doctor Pershing said. “Really since about 2010 this ecosystem has been going through a remarkable transformation where every year it seems to get warmer and warmer.”He said all areas of the ocean are warming by .01 degrees Celsius a year, on average.“We’re losing some of our subarctic species that have really been the center of the food web at the Gulf of Maine,” he said. “The whales are having to adjust on the fly to figure that out, and that makes it harder for the companies that have set up shop in a particular area with the expectation they can go offshore and quickly find the whales.”“What’s happening with climate may be kind of abstract,” Zack Klyver explained. “A fire in California, or a melting glacier somewhere that they hear about but for us it’s real. We’re seeing it everyday on the ocean.”And just like the season, the Gulf of Maine is changing.“A lot of people plan their vacations completely around seeing whales, they’ll come from all over the world,” Klyver said.Klyver and Jeff Dobbs are working on a documentary about the Right Whale, in hopes of bringing more attention to the endangered animal.“The plight of the Right Whale hasn’t gotten any better,” Dobbs said. “Their status in the world is very important, people don’t realize how much they contribute to the global economy.”Fishing and shipping are two things that are detrimental to the whales, according to Todd. “I am deeply motivated to save these animals. Deeply motivated,” he said.“We really have to rethink how we make decisions about natural resources how we make decisions about our businesses, we really have to look towards our future,” Doctor Pershing said. 5289

At 95 years old, not even a fall can slow down Jimmy Carter. After falling at his home on Sunday, Carter was in Nashville on Monday to fulfill his role as an ambassador and builder for Habitat for Humanity. The fall caused a noticeable bruise on Carter's face, which was partially covered by a bandage. Carter said he needed stitches after falling.The former president and his wife Rosalynn will oversee the construction of 21 homes in the Nashville area this week. This is the 36th work project the Carters have been involved in with Habitat for Humanity. “I continue to be in awe of the humble determination that President and Mrs. Carter display through their service,” said Jonathan Reckford, CEO of Habitat for Humanity International. “Their work has inspired countless people to join Habitat in our mission to build a world where everyone has a safe, decent and affordable place to live. All of us—from the families they’re working alongside in Nashville, to the millions who have been inspired by their good works —owe President and Mrs. Carter our thanks.”Working alongside dozens of others, the former president was seen with a drill in hand helping to build one of the homes. Carter acknowledged on Monday that he will have a limited schedule this week, but it was still important for him to be participate in this week's build. According to Habitat for Humanity, Carter has been involved in projects that have built, rebuilt or remodeled 4,331 homes. 1474

Boeing safely landed its crew capsule in the New Mexico desert Sunday after an aborted flight to the International Space Station that could hold up the company’s effort to launch astronauts for NASA next year.The Starliner descended into the Army’s White Sands Missile Range in the frigid predawn darkness, ending a two-day demo that should have lasted more than a week. A trio of red, white and blue parachutes popped open and airbags also inflated around the spacecraft to ease the impact. “We pinpoint landed it,” NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine said at a post-landing briefing. The successful return capped a rocky start to a mission that was supposed to include a docking with the space station. Managers will review all the data before deciding whether to do another test flight or go straight to flying astronauts, said NASA’s Steve Stich. After seeing this first test flight cut short and the space station docking canceled because of an improperly set clock on the capsule, Boeing employees were relieved to get the Starliner back.Recovery teams cheered as they watched the capsule drift down through the air and make a bull’s-eye landing. The touchdown was broadcast live on NASA TV; infrared cameras painted the descending capsule in a ghostly white. As the sun rose, close-up views showed the large white and black capsule upright — with hardly any scorch marks from re-entry — next to a U.S. flag waving from a recovery vehicle. The astronauts assigned to the first Starliner crew — two from NASA and one from Boeing — were part of the welcoming committee. “A beautiful soft landing,” said NASA astronaut Mike Fincke. “Can’t wait to try it out.” It was the first American-made capsule designed for astronauts to make a ground landing after returning from orbit. NASA’s early crew capsules — Mercury, Gemini and Apollo — all had splashdowns. SpaceX’s Dragon capsule, which made its orbital debut last winter with a test dummy, also aims for the ocean at mission’s end.Minutes after touchdown, top NASA and Boeing officials poured into Mission Control in Houston to congratulate the team. The newly returned Starliner also got a personalized name: Calypso, after Jacques Cousteau’s boat.The capsule’s first trip to space began with a smooth rocket ride from Cape Canaveral on Friday. But barely a half hour into the flight, it failed to fire its thrusters to give chase to the space station and ended up in the wrong orbit. The problem was with the Starliner’s internal clock: It did not sync up with the Atlas V rocket and was off by 11 hours, according to Boeing’s Jim Chilton. The capsule burned so much fuel trying to orient itself in orbit that there wasn’t enough left for a space station rendezvous. Flight controllers tried to correct the problem, but between the spacecraft’s position and a gap in communications, their signals did not get through. They later managed to reset the clock. Boeing is still trying to figure out how the timing error occurred. The mission lasted nearly 50 hours and included 33 orbits around the Earth, about 100 orbits fewer than planned. A test dummy named Rosie the Rocketeer — after Rosie the Riveter from World War II — rode in the commander’s seat. Also returning were holiday presents, clothes and food that should have been delivered to the space station crew.Even though not all goals were met including a station docking, “in my eyes, it was a huge success,” said Boeing flight director Richard Jones.There were no parachute problems this time. Last month, only two parachutes deployed during an atmospheric test because workers failed to connect a pin in the rigging.“We didn’t do everything we wanted to do, but we don’t see anything wrong with this spaceship right now,” despite the timing error, Chilton said. He apologized to the six space station residents for not delivering their Christmas presents. Boeing had been shooting for its first astronaut launch in the first half of 2020. This capsule is supposed to be recycled for the second flight with crew; each Starliner is built to fly in space 10 times.The capsule will return to Florida’s Kennedy Space Center in two weeks for inspections and refurbishments.“We’ve got a lot of learning in front of us,” Bridenstine said. “But we have enough information and data to where we can keep moving forward in a very positive way.Despite its own setbacks, SpaceX remains in the lead in NASA’s commercial crew program.SpaceX’s Dragon crew capsule successfully completed its first orbital demo last March. While the flight to the space station went well, the capsule exploded a month later on a test stand at Cape Canaveral. If a launch abort test goes well next month, SpaceX could start launching NASA astronauts by spring and end a nearly nine-year gap in flying people from Cape Canaveral.As its space shuttle program was winding down, NASA looked to private industry to take over cargo and crew deliveries to the space station. SpaceX kicked off supply runs in 2012. Two years later, NASA hired SpaceX and Boeing to ferry astronauts to the orbiting lab. SpaceX got .6 billion under NASA’s commercial crew program, while Boeing received more than billion.The goal was to launch NASA astronauts by 2017.Because of delays, NASA is looking to buy another two seats on Russian rockets in 2020 and 2021 to guarantee a continuing U.S. presence on the space station. Even when private companies are regularly carrying up astronauts for NASA, the space agency always will reserve a seat for a Russian in exchange for a free U.S. seat on a Soyuz.Over the years, these Soyuz rides have cost NASA up to million apiece, with the tab totaling in the billions.A recent audit by NASA’s inspector general found a Starliner seat will cost slightly more than that, with a Dragon seat going for just over half the price.___The Associated Press Health and Science Department receives 5902
