Nine years of work to fight global warming is sitting on the bottom of the Antarctic ocean today. NASA's Orbiting Carbon Observatory (OCO) failed to reach orbit after launch yesterday.
OCO was supposed to map carbon dioxide emissions around the world. It was to measure carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and where it was being absorbed.
