Icefin recently observed that the water circulating beneath #ThwaitesGlacier is 2 degrees above freezing, which means the glacier might continue to melt in a hurry.

And check out footage from Icefin’s voyage beneath
#ThwaitesGlacier (that's the bottom of a massive ice shelf!) and its safe return to the surface through a 600-meter-deep hole in the ice that researchers bored using a hot-water drill: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=dTQWCCU8CpE&feature=emb_logo … 3/4Prikaži ovu nit -
Icefin has also been used elsewhere in West
#Antarctica, including below the Kamb Ice Stream, which flows into the Ross Ice Shelf west of Thwaites. And some day it could be sent to investigate oceans on Jupiter’s moon Europa. https://eos.org/articles/drilling-into-the-past-to-predict-the-future … 4/4Prikaži ovu nit
