Continent 7: Antarctica: Science of Survival

TARTALOM ISMERTETő

In two weeks, science in Antarctica will shut down for the winter. Scott Base has a heavy load of logistics to manage to send teams out to finish their missions for the season and prepare for the arrival of an entire year's worth of supplies coming into port. Captain Walker and of the USS Coast Guard Icebreaker Polar Star are once again challenged by their aging ship as they try to finish the last stages of cutting a channel in the ice before they escort the Ocean Giant in. Meanwhile, Graham Hill and the Mount Erebus team struggle to salvage as much data as they can from the volcano before they go home. Barbara Bollard Breen and her team carefully take digital pictures of the historic Scott Hut historical site, and map the surrounding area by drone. In the Dry Valleys, Craig Cary leads an expedition for one more set of samples from the sand before the helicopter comes to pick the team up from the field.
