What researchers learned at Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier

Season 2026 Episode 35 | 7m 52s

As Trump pulls back from regulations on climate change, many scientists remain worried about the warming of the oceans, melting glaciers and sea level rise. Science correspondent Miles O'Brien has been reporting from Antarctica on a mission to understand what's happening there. In his last report from the Thwaites Glacier, he looks at other key research projects that have been part of that trip.
