[00:00:00]Is there a giant hidden rock controlling Antarctica's ice? Scientists studying Antarctica found a massive granite body buried under Pine Island Glacier.

It may even control how the glacier breaks and slides into the ocean. The ice above is not just melting, it's being [music] shaped from below and that changes everything we thought about sea level rise. So, is Antarctica hiding a system that speeds up its own collapse?
