No 💨 so up goes the big drill ⛺️! Amazing effort by the field team @COLDEX_STC including @marksjulia2 , @austincarter642 , @AbigailHudak , @JohnMorganManos, and others not on X! Which geologic epoch will we recover this year?!

This is from the Mendenhall River Floods in Alaska. This happened over a span of six hours. 😧 Can you imagine watching that happen to your home knowing there’s nothing that can save it?

✅The South Pole-based airborne geophysics team has completed science for the season, finishing a broad survey of the southern flank of East Antarctica's Dome A! Ice structure, thickness, & bedrock data will help plan future surveys for finding ancient climate records in the ice.

Toured the DC3 yesterday. Built in 1942, this plane flew on D-Day and is now surveying for oldest ice @COLDEX_STC.

Made it to @HerculesDome after 3 years. Our old flags still barely peeking out. We are now ready to do some radar profiling 😎

Replying to @HerculesDome
@HerculesDome is a go! Three of four primary scientists have now PQ'd (#4 should clear any moment), and we are scheduled to deploy in a week. @LKirkpatrick98, Emma Erwin, TJ Fudge, and myself. What the heck are we still doing at Herc Dome and why has it taken this long? 👇
