Y’all, @PBS’ @PBSNature aired clips of this back in November.
Since it’s old news now, you can watch it online if you are a PBS donor. In Austin? $5/month to @austinpbs can hook you up.

It was pretty cool. The honey bee nest was quiet as the hornet entered. It took a bite out of a honeybee which gave an attack command. The bees swarmed, vibrating their flight muscles to generate heat. Honeybees can stand 4° higher temps, giving them the cooking sweet spot.
Just happened to watch this episode with the kids a few days ago before the hornet made the papers.
