If they had landed on the target area, 479 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,127 which was ripe for surface analysis, 480 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,851 the mission would have begun with extensive surface tests 481 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:56,764 using the ship's robotic arm, 482 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:58,920 followed by a few hours of drilling through the ice 483 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,241 to deploy a remote underwater probe. 484 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:04,768 - So how will that affect procedure? 485 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,240 What it means is we won't get the data we want very easily. 486 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,360 That's why I want to move back Daniel's surface test 487 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:10,806 and start the drill immediately. 488 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,850 Our best hopes of success lies under the ice. 489 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:15,764 Daniel, what do you think? 490 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,366 - I wanna argue... - I'm sure you would. 491 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,560 ...but with our current position in the ice, 492 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,768 we won't get key data. 493 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:24,809 Let's go for a swim. 497 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:40,848 - Drill head is locked and prepped. 498 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:42,206 Beginning extension. 499 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,083 - Thermal is live. 501 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,163 Entering ice layer now. 504 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,202 - Do you hear that? - Uh-huh. 505 00:28:16,360 --> 00:28:18,328 - Are you getting it? - Yeah. 506 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,369 I think that's just the ice shifting. 507 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,090 Everything's all right. 508 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:25,164 We can expect more of that as the temperature drops. 514 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,489 That was stronger than our data projected it. 515 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,405 - Are we stable? - Re-working the analysis now. 516 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,082 Katya, let's try the frequency of these quakes. 517 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:09,083 The increased tidal activity means 518 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:12,289 there could be more heat than we thought beneath the surface. 520 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:17,840 - Are you recording this? - Yeah. 522 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,284 Okay, let's run some diagnostics here, 523 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,281 because i...
