to seeing the hurricane can be best described as one
- 00:31
of what And here a potential answers right disappointment along
- 00:35
the light's bright Well the passage quotes one of the
- 00:37
science guys on the team that first clock this giant
- 00:40
storm on saturday To get this question right we need
- 00:43
to zero in on a quote and figure out just
- 00:46
how the team felt when it saw this extraterrestrial storm
- 00:49
which is not to be confused with a storm of
- 00:51
extraterrestrials Alright a claims that the team was disappointed when
- 00:55

- 01:02

- 01:31
they did a happy dance or anything although that'd be
- 01:33
kind of cool the correct answer is d surprise That
- 01:37
quote says the team did a double take it a
- 01:39
double take when they saw the hurricane A double take
- 01:43
is really just looking twice it's something unexpected like if
- 01:47
we were walking down the street and thought we saw
- 01:49
jay z on a pogo stick that would be a 00:01:51.442 --> [endTime] surprise
