Amazing news on the find of Shackleton’s #Endurance under Antarctician ice!

The #AntarcticQuest21 team are waiting out another ferocious storm. In such extreme weather the sat comms kit has no chance.
So here is @polaraj explaining how the team normally use the BGAN terminal sponsored by @TheASTGroup to connect the #expedition to the world.
Since the #AntarcticQuest21 team are now navigating terrain where there is the possibility of an avalanche, here is Antony Jinman answering a question from one of the schools following the expedition about "avalanche transmitters".

Yesterday was Day 16 of the #AntarcticQuest21 The team took a well earned break after working so hard to get their kit up to Harris Peak and then battling the storms.
Here is @polarAJ with an update, including a description of the Humpback Whales the team can see in the bay!
The 29th of December was a "fantastic day" for the #AntarcticQuest21 expedition. The team managed to use a break in the unseasonably bad weather to make some real progress.
Here is Deputy Leader Antony Jinman with the update.
In the latest #AntarcticQuest21 expedition update @polarAJ describes the difficult but successful ascent of Harris Peak, and answers a question about how you go to the loo in #Antarctica. Ice wedge anyone... 🥶
