1
00:00:00,850 --> 00:00:03,590
This is the Cryosphere

2
00:00:03,590 --> 00:00:05,890
Cryo=Frozen

3
00:00:05,890 --> 00:00:06,400


4
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:08,200
It has five parts

5
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:09,010
Sea Ice

6
00:00:09,010 --> 00:00:09,770
Snow

7
00:00:09,770 --> 00:00:10,390
Permafrost

8
00:00:10,390 --> 00:00:11,070
Glaciers

9
00:00:11,070 --> 00:00:12,680
Ice Sheets

10
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:14,990
That's a lot of ice

11
00:00:14,990 --> 00:00:16,520


12
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:17,880
The Cryosphere is pretty important

13
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:21,940
Basically, life on Earth needs it to survive

14
00:00:21,940 --> 00:00:24,690
But parts of it are melting quickly

15
00:00:24,690 --> 00:00:28,370
NASA is working on finding answers

16
00:00:28,370 --> 00:00:32,800


17
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,970
Cryosphere

18
00:00:35,970 --> 00:00:37,680


19
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:39,706
