NASA launches new satellite to measure ice levels on Earth

NASA launches new “laser” to study how much ice our home planet is losing: ICESat2 laser satellite took off this week to measure the height of ice on earth in order to determine how much of it was due to global warming. NASA will conduct tests four times a year to provide scientists with the rate ice is disappearing (watch, runtime 0:55). We, however, could not watch this without thinking back to our favorite laser-obsessed villain.
