Happy #PolarPride! It's with overwhelming joy that I'm able to share this message of love, hope, and celebration from LGBTQ+ people and our allies from across #Antarctica. I think it's safe to say we have the most pride per capita of any continent on the planet. π#LGBTQSTEMDay
Pride is spanning the globe β Polar Pride is being celebrated on Nov 18 to recognize the contributions the LGBTQ+ community has had on polar science. Researchers from 5 stations around Antarctica shared what the day means to them. π³οΈβπ
Happy Polar Pride! Today is also International Day of LGBTQIA+ people in science, technology, engineering, and maths (STEM)! Letβs all help to make the world of STEM a better and more inclusive place!

The pride flag at the North and South Poles for #PolarPride, probably the first time they've ever flown at both places at once. The #LGBTQIA+ community *literally* spans the globe. π #LGBTQSTEMDay

The team at Halley were treated to some real life rainbows to celebrate #PolarPride!
These rainbows over the met tower were caused by a halo and sun dogs!
