America's Tsunami: Are We Next?

Scientists plunge into the Indian Ocean to examine the geological upheaval caused by the 2004 earthquake and uncover information that may help them predict a similar event off the West Coast of the United States. Using remote-controlled vehicles and cutting-edge cameras, the team reveals the massive seafloor uplift that caused the devastating tidal wave and analyzes the collected data to better assess the risk of a tsunami in northwest America.
