Space and Aviation-On Thin Ice

This small article is basically talking about a satellite designed to take the most sensitive measurements yet of sea ice and glaciers. It falls under the field of Space and Aviation. The big deal about this topic is that it would help scientist make better computer models to predict polar temperatures, ocean circulation and, perhaps most important for those of us on the rest of the planet, rising sea levels. I care about this developments because it's going to help the environment. I think that in 2010 scientist are going to find out more stuff like this that could help out on things. In 2005 the rocket failed to separate and brought the original CryoSat satellite crashing into the Arctic Ocean. That was the obstacle they had, but scientist came up with new ideas for it to be a success.
