14 years ago today this amazing/terrible ship sprung a leak. Half an olympic swimming pool of water came in in 30 mins. Our Mayday call went unanswered. 100 brilliant sailors and a few brave civilians (who were expecting a better ride than this!) saved the day. Cheers🥃

Do watch/share it.
Exciting news for polar research as #RRSSirDavidAttenborough completes ice trials in Antarctica. The trials put the NERC-commissioned polar ship's ability to break through sea ice to the test - and showed it exceeded expectations in some areas.

Really excellent opportunity to learn more about how the #Arctic#Ocean is changing and will continue to undergo state-change in the years to come. And a good example of international science diplomacy as well. @NERC_CAO#frozenocean#openwater
