… and they’re off!

The first members of the iSTAR tractor traverse have now arrived in Antarctica, with more joining them over the next weeks. Following field training and other preparation at Rothera Research Station, they will be flying out to join the tractors and start the scientific measurements on Pine Island Glacier and its catchment area.

We wish them the best of luck, and hope to provide you with updates and stories from the field over the months to come.
