Many things about Antarctica feel otherworldly, and the picture above is no exception. The orange glow is the light from town, and the thin bright line on the horizon is the Pegasus Ice Runway, which has been lit going on a week now in preparation for tomorrow&#8217;s C-17 flight from Christchurch. Not sure why the [...]]]></description>

Here are two quick videos showing how we entertain ourselves at thirty below. Obviously when it comes to fun in the cold this is only the tip of the iceberg. At some point you&#8217;ve heard of someone in a cold place throwing a bucket of water out of a second story [...]]]></description>

McMurdo is quickly losing light. In less than two weeks the continent will be dark. Just before returning to town, the last few limno runs out in the valley had to be completed in the dark, a new experience for everyone. Taken during this last limno run at Lake Hoare, the video above is inherently [...]]]></description>
