I watched the show. It was okay. It was more about the climb and the challenges and about the traffic jams (yes too many climbers on Mt. Everest these days) and about the team doing research and taking core samples and a lot about climate change than about the station. I would have liked to have seen more about the station and how it works and about the data that it is collecting and what they learned from the data. Perhaps more of that is in episode 2 or later? Maybe this is just the beginning as it is a series. It was interesting to learn that the team originally wanted to put the station at the very peek of the summit but because of traffic jams of people climbing and bad weather that they settled on that last level just before the summit called the Balcony for the installation of the station. Close enough I guess, only 1,500 short of the summit at 29,000 feet.
