Rockhopper is back in Antarctica

← Back to news listing

We’re back in Antarctica with the British Antarctic Survey at Rothera. Director Beth Jones and cameraman Mike Arnott are with Richard (presenting). It’s Rockhopper’s 3 trip to Antarctica and Richard’s 6th.

 

Whilst we’re here we’ll be visiting the Larsen Ice Shelf, the Flask Glacier, Fossil Bluff and we’ll reporting on the rapid warming that’s affecting the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. We’ll also be out around the islands, the ‘bergs and the wildlife of Adelie Island, where BAS has its main base.
