Ross Ice Shelf

The biggest ice shelf on the planet. I'm a little cold and hoping to stay that way. Culturally, I'm all about east-meets-west.

And we were fortunate to be able to showcase a very special 'Antarctic Ale' - a partnership between @Northendbrewing and #Emersons. A very unique brew - hearty & tasty. Both the beer and the story of its development were very well received!

We need you to Colour Our Place, Scott Base!

Scott Base is Aotearoa New Zealand's home on the ice, so we reckon Kiwis should decide what colour it will be. Help us make history and cast your vote here: https://t.co/UY8ackJpUj

Microbial ecosystems thrive under Antarctica's @RossShelf, and understanding life in these remote places helps us make sense of it elsewhere on Earth. These experts found a thriving microscopic community, echoing back to early hints of life under ice. https://t.co/LtlbEC2YrS

Ross Ice Shelf Selfie! From my trip to the South Pole via the South Pole Traverse in November of this year. Got my radar antenna (on the boom) in the background and the Transantarctics in the distance. #shelfieselfie #southpoletraverse #crrel
