Researchers meet big setback to measuring ‘Doomsday Glacier’

Season 2026 Episode 29 | 5m 28s

If you’ve been following Miles O’Brien’s reports from Antarctica, you know he’s with an international group of researchers trying to measure what’s happening to the rapidly melting Thwaites Glacier. Their work has been trying to capture information in ways that have never been done before. O’Brien has an update on how all that turned out, for our Tipping Point series.
