Nova: Extreme ice

[CowboyWay]

I saw a really good documentary on Nova the other night called "Extreme Ice". A guy goes to the poles and sets up many cameras all around and programs them to take one picture every daylight hour for 3-5 years.

Then by fast forwarding you watch the ice retreat in 3-5 years in a matter of seconds or minutes. It was wild. Great cinematography too.

That's some cool footage no matter what your stance is.

Agree. You would have loved the actual show. It was amazing to see that ice move like that.

Nova is consistently one of the best shows on TV.

I think the ice is melting but I also think it's a cycle that the earth goes through...
