Question and answer
- Question
- What exactly is said starting about 4 seconds into this clip?
- Answer
- The transcript has the speaker saying "looking to see how our bodies react to microgravity and space and one of the ways to do that" from 0.0 seconds.
- Tool returned
- looking to see how our bodies react to microgravity and space and one of the ways to do that
- Truth
- And one of the ways to do that is to collect blood samples.
How it was checked
- Truth from
- captions
- Fixed at
Taken from the human captions published with the source: the caption line at 14.30 to 17.30 s in the source, which is 4.00 to 7.00 s in the clip. The clip is the source from 10.30 to 40.30 s, cut with no edit. The line was picked by a seeded rule (seed from the card id) from 12 eligible caption lines of 8 to 25 words, 2 to 10 s long, starting at least 4 s in, ending 0.5 s before the window does, with at least two words of 5 or more letters, and with no sound tag, music mark, dialogue dash or speaker label; the required phrases are the first 3 of those words in the line. No picture or sound was changed, and no tool was asked for the answer.
The check is the published caption file, and the 30-second clip was cut from the source with no edit, so a word that transcribe hears differently counts as a miss.
