1
00:00:08,076 --> 00:00:12,646
*
2
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:14,280
Going to Antarctica
is a little bit
3
00:00:14,315 --> 00:00:16,815
like leaving the planet.
4
00:00:18,752 --> 00:00:21,962
No matter what we do
or where we go,
5
00:00:21,989 --> 00:00:26,189
we're walking
where nobody's walked before.
6
00:00:29,530 --> 00:00:33,870
We're looking at things
that nobody's seen before.
7
00:00:36,036 --> 00:00:37,966
You feel isolated,
8
00:00:38,005 --> 00:00:41,105
and the quietness
immediately hits you...
9
00:00:48,182 --> 00:00:51,352
...at the same time as
the temperature drop hits you.
10
00:00:53,787 --> 00:00:56,117
You realize
that you've got to have
11
00:00:56,157 --> 00:00:58,927
everything you need
to survive...
12
00:01:03,030 --> 00:01:04,530
...because anything can happen.
13
00:01:04,565 --> 00:01:19,345
*
14
00:01:19,380 --> 00:01:33,030
*
15
00:01:33,060 --> 00:01:37,100
We've been in this tent,
what, about 16 hours?
16
00:01:37,131 --> 00:01:38,401
That's all snow right there.
17
00:01:38,432 --> 00:01:41,542
That's a snow wall
against my head.
18
00:01:41,569 --> 00:01:44,609
Because of the blowing snow
and low visibility,
19
00:01:44,638 --> 00:01:47,238
we're going to just stay put
until it improves.
20
00:01:47,275 --> 00:01:49,335
The scientists
of the Ross Ice Shelf team
21
00:01:49,377 --> 00:01:53,307
have been confined to their
tents, in a Condition 1 storm,
22
00:01:53,347 --> 00:01:54,977
for almost a full day.
23
00:01:58,486 --> 00:02:00,016
You can't see 30 meters
in front of you.
24
00:02:00,053 --> 00:02:04,863
It's just windy.
It's snowing. It's cold.
25
00:02:04,892 --> 00:02:06,162
Spending a day or more
in a tent,
26
00:02:06,194 --> 00:02:08,364
it's kind of a weird concept.
27
00:02:08,396 --> 00:02:10,356
A little bit nerve-racking.
28
00:02:10,398 --> 00:02:12,198
So, yeah, it's not great.
29
00:02:21,041 --> 00:02:25,151
*
30
00:02:25,179 --> 00:02:26,549
Storms in Antarctica
31
00:02:26,580 --> 00:02:29,880
have been known
to last over 12 days,
32
00:02:29,917 --> 00:02:34,557
so the team is lucky
this storm broke after just one.
33
00:02:34,588 --> 00:02:35,788
It's morning.
34
00:02:35,823 --> 00:02:40,833
*
35
00:02:40,861 --> 00:02:43,531
Wow. Can't believe
we were worried about this one.
36
00:02:43,564 --> 00:02:44,434
Beautiful.
37
00:02:44,465 --> 00:02:47,095
Right, pass the stuff.
38
00:02:47,134 --> 00:02:48,304
I was just freezing.
39
00:02:48,336 --> 00:02:51,866
It was bloody freezing
during the night.
40
00:02:51,905 --> 00:02:54,575
The team has
just 14 days on the ice.
41
00:02:54,608 --> 00:02:56,008
And before they can study
42
00:02:56,043 --> 00:02:59,083
Antarctica's potential impact
on the rest of the world,
43
00:02:59,112 --> 00:02:59,912
they have to get
44
00:02:59,947 --> 00:03:03,347
to their research site first.
45
00:03:03,384 --> 00:03:05,324
Wow.
46
00:03:05,353 --> 00:03:07,093
We're eating up
our science time now
47
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:11,430
just because of the weather
not playing ball.
48
00:03:11,459 --> 00:03:13,929
We're just really keen
to actually get started.
49
00:03:13,961 --> 00:03:16,301
We're going to take the first
two measurements of their kind
50
00:03:16,330 --> 00:03:17,670
on the Ross Ice Shelf,
51
00:03:17,698 --> 00:03:19,468
and that water that's
underneath the Ross Ice Shelf,
52
00:03:19,500 --> 00:03:20,870
that's really important.
53
00:03:20,901 --> 00:03:23,471
The weather has improved
significantly here,
54
00:03:23,504 --> 00:03:26,474
and we're going to get
on the move south again.
55
00:03:26,507 --> 00:03:27,877
Antarctica is actually creating
56
00:03:27,908 --> 00:03:28,908
very, very, cold water
57
00:03:28,942 --> 00:03:31,142
that pushes down
into the deep ocean,
58
00:03:31,178 --> 00:03:34,008
which then forces warmer water
to push up somewhere else,
59
00:03:34,047 --> 00:03:36,577
and that conveyor belt,
as we kind of call it,
60
00:03:36,617 --> 00:03:38,917
of water that's actually
circulating around the world,
61
00:03:38,952 --> 00:03:40,652
redistributes heat.
62
00:03:40,688 --> 00:03:43,258
That's what keeps other places
from freezing over.
63
00:03:43,291 --> 00:03:45,331
You know,
the eastern seaboard of the U.S.
64
00:03:45,359 --> 00:03:46,929
would be quite a lot colder
65
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,500
if it didn't get an injection
of warm water, which is,
66
00:03:49,530 --> 00:03:53,770
that whole system is being
driven by Antarctica.
67
00:03:53,801 --> 00:03:55,271
Alright, guys.
68
00:03:55,303 --> 00:03:58,743
We want to really keep on
pushing along today.
69
00:03:58,772 --> 00:04:01,342
We're going to try
and push onto Site X,
70
00:04:01,375 --> 00:04:04,035
hopefully make it there tonight.
71
00:04:04,077 --> 00:04:05,347
Everyone's happy?
72
00:04:05,379 --> 00:04:07,879
Let's get some kilometers
under the belt.
73
00:04:07,915 --> 00:04:09,745
Time frames are
pretty critical down here.
74
00:04:09,783 --> 00:04:10,923
There's a year's worth
of planning
75
00:04:10,951 --> 00:04:12,291
that have gone
into these events,
76
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,060
that we need to try
and make sure that we stick to.
77
00:04:15,088 --> 00:04:17,488
Otherwise, there's potentially
some of the science objectives
78
00:04:17,525 --> 00:04:19,125
that wouldn't be reached.
79
00:04:19,159 --> 00:04:29,199
*
80
00:04:29,202 --> 00:04:34,882
*
81
00:04:34,908 --> 00:04:37,178
Even the smallest amount
we had kept
82
00:04:37,210 --> 00:04:40,110
because we can always put it
into a soup.
83
00:04:40,147 --> 00:04:42,877
There's kind of a distinct
lack of food at the moment.
84
00:04:42,916 --> 00:04:44,946
We just have to make do
with what we've got.
85
00:04:44,985 --> 00:04:46,445
At Scott Base,
86
00:04:46,487 --> 00:04:48,987
New Zealand's
Antarctic research hub,
87
00:04:49,022 --> 00:04:51,222
the storm shut down
the supply chain,
88
00:04:51,258 --> 00:04:53,828
grounding
all C-17 cargo flights.
89
00:04:53,861 --> 00:04:55,901
We've been delayed
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday,
90
00:04:55,929 --> 00:04:57,899
Saturday, and it's Sunday now,
91
00:04:57,931 --> 00:05:01,171
and it's due in, taking off,
so we'll see what happens.
92
00:05:01,201 --> 00:05:06,141
*
93
00:05:06,173 --> 00:05:08,713
Here he comes.
94
00:05:08,742 --> 00:05:13,012
To the right,
to the right, to the right.
95
00:05:13,046 --> 00:05:14,246
Alright!
96
00:05:18,185 --> 00:05:19,485
It landed.
97
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:24,020
*
98
00:05:24,057 --> 00:05:28,097
These flights
bring in new staff,
99
00:05:28,128 --> 00:05:30,158
sensitive scientific
equipment...
100
00:05:30,197 --> 00:05:31,727
Freshies are coming!
101
00:05:31,765 --> 00:05:34,125
...and fresh food.
102
00:05:34,167 --> 00:05:35,697
If we can, like, create a chain,
103
00:05:35,736 --> 00:05:38,036
it'll be a lot easier.
104
00:05:38,071 --> 00:05:39,471
It's always an exciting time,
105
00:05:39,507 --> 00:05:40,967
when the freshies arrive.
106
00:05:41,008 --> 00:05:44,078
Food is incredibly important for
the morale of people on base.
107
00:05:44,111 --> 00:05:45,181
You know, there's nothing
108
00:05:45,212 --> 00:05:46,682
like a crisp apple
109
00:05:46,714 --> 00:05:47,984
after you haven't had an apple
110
00:05:48,015 --> 00:05:50,015
for, you know, weeks and weeks.
111
00:05:50,050 --> 00:05:50,850
It's the stuff
112
00:05:50,884 --> 00:05:52,224
that people dream of.
113
00:05:52,252 --> 00:05:54,722
Tomatoes, tomatoes.
114
00:05:54,755 --> 00:05:56,985
Tomatoes.
115
00:05:57,024 --> 00:05:58,894
Eggs.
116
00:05:58,926 --> 00:06:01,086
I've been craving strawberries.
117
00:06:01,128 --> 00:06:03,328
Fruit will be nice.
118
00:06:03,363 --> 00:06:04,673
There's quite
a few excited people
119
00:06:04,698 --> 00:06:05,868
around at the moment.
120
00:06:05,899 --> 00:06:07,469
Look, it's full.
121
00:06:07,501 --> 00:06:09,301
About time.
122
00:06:09,336 --> 00:06:11,336
Let's get these grapes inside
straightaway.
123
00:06:11,371 --> 00:06:13,941
Pears.
Apples, where are the apples?
124
00:06:13,974 --> 00:06:15,444
Apples are right there.
125
00:06:18,011 --> 00:06:21,481
18 miles from shore
126
00:06:21,515 --> 00:06:24,375
is the U.S. Coast Guard cutter,
Polar Star.
127
00:06:24,418 --> 00:06:26,688
Try to keep it straight.
128
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,390
All ahead four, aye.
129
00:06:28,422 --> 00:06:29,922
We're lined up great.
130
00:06:29,957 --> 00:06:31,887
All's we gotta do
is go forward from here.
131
00:06:31,925 --> 00:06:34,185
This is where we earn our money.
132
00:06:34,227 --> 00:06:36,797
Let's go break some ice.
133
00:06:36,830 --> 00:06:38,800
Her mission is to open a channel
134
00:06:38,832 --> 00:06:41,672
for a freighter
that comes once a year.
135
00:06:41,702 --> 00:06:42,942
Now she's at the edge
136
00:06:42,970 --> 00:06:46,670
of 18 miles of 10-foot-thick ice
blocking the way.
137
00:06:49,242 --> 00:06:50,812
It's connected
from shore to shore,
138
00:06:50,844 --> 00:06:52,254
beach to beach.
139
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:56,049
It's solid ice
across an entire sound,
140
00:06:56,083 --> 00:06:58,723
and that's
where the real mission starts.
141
00:06:58,752 --> 00:07:01,792
The Polar Star is America's
only heavy icebreaker,
142
00:07:01,822 --> 00:07:04,862
and it is the only one
that can break that channel,
143
00:07:04,892 --> 00:07:08,732
so I've got the entire continent
relying on me.
144
00:07:08,762 --> 00:07:11,062
I have to turn that ice
into ice cubes.
145
00:07:11,098 --> 00:07:13,398
Steady on course, 1-5-5.
146
00:07:13,433 --> 00:07:15,143
Are we ready?
147
00:07:15,168 --> 00:07:16,298
Go to turbines.
148
00:07:16,336 --> 00:07:18,906
If you can imagine
trying to drive your car
149
00:07:18,939 --> 00:07:20,639
through a cement wall,
150
00:07:20,674 --> 00:07:21,914
is like those supply ships
151
00:07:21,942 --> 00:07:23,642
trying to drive
through that ice.
152
00:07:23,677 --> 00:07:25,947
You just can't do it.
It's not made for that.
153
00:07:25,979 --> 00:07:27,409
Now, take a bulldozer,
154
00:07:27,447 --> 00:07:29,317
and a bulldozer
would be able to do that.
155
00:07:29,349 --> 00:07:31,519
We are that bulldozer.
156
00:07:31,552 --> 00:07:34,562
Switching over to turbines will
give us a lot more horsepower,
157
00:07:34,588 --> 00:07:37,318
between 60,000
and 75,000 horsepower.
158
00:07:37,357 --> 00:07:38,957
The Polar Star breaks ice
159
00:07:38,992 --> 00:07:40,662
by surging up out of the water
160
00:07:40,694 --> 00:07:44,734
and slamming down
its full 14,000-ton mass.
161
00:07:44,765 --> 00:07:46,665
In order to generate
enough power,
162
00:07:46,700 --> 00:07:48,900
the ship has three gas turbines,
163
00:07:48,936 --> 00:07:52,406
basically jet engines modified
to drive propeller shafts,
164
00:07:52,439 --> 00:07:54,579
and it takes a week
of round-the-clock throttle
165
00:07:54,608 --> 00:07:56,038
to make it to shore.
166
00:07:59,146 --> 00:08:00,446
Main Control, this is Morrison.
167
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:01,750
Yes, Captain.
168
00:08:01,782 --> 00:08:03,522
And we just have to monitor
her shaft overloads,
169
00:08:03,551 --> 00:08:05,491
as well as temperatures.
170
00:08:05,519 --> 00:08:06,989
Roger.
171
00:08:07,020 --> 00:08:09,920
The engine system
was built 40 years ago,
172
00:08:09,957 --> 00:08:12,657
so it's carefully monitored
by Lieutenant Morrison
173
00:08:12,693 --> 00:08:15,603
in Main Control.
174
00:08:15,629 --> 00:08:16,559
Turbine Room, Main Control.
175
00:08:16,597 --> 00:08:17,827
Standby, stand clear,
176
00:08:17,865 --> 00:08:19,595
for the start of the number two
main gas turbine.
177
00:08:19,633 --> 00:08:22,673
Roger,
standby for number two turbine.
178
00:08:22,703 --> 00:08:24,043
Start her.
179
00:08:34,548 --> 00:08:35,778
Hydrostart activated.
180
00:08:35,816 --> 00:08:43,356
*
181
00:08:43,390 --> 00:08:44,890
Port's up to speed.
182
00:08:44,925 --> 00:08:45,925
Roger.
183
00:08:45,959 --> 00:08:55,199
*
184
00:08:55,235 --> 00:08:56,065
Speed?
185
00:08:56,103 --> 00:08:58,473
7 knots.
186
00:08:58,505 --> 00:09:00,405
Course over ground is 1-4-0.
187
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,710
And we're going ramming speed.
188
00:09:02,743 --> 00:09:05,883
1-3-9, just about 5 right now.
189
00:09:05,913 --> 00:09:11,123
*
190
00:09:17,090 --> 00:09:21,930
*
191
00:09:21,962 --> 00:09:34,372
*
192
00:09:34,407 --> 00:09:37,077
It's kind of neat
when you see nothing but ice,
193
00:09:37,110 --> 00:09:40,050
no relief.
194
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:41,280
It's amazing, the amount
195
00:09:41,314 --> 00:09:43,124
of force that, and basically,
196
00:09:43,150 --> 00:09:45,490
the sheer cutting strength
197
00:09:45,518 --> 00:09:47,348
of ice against steel.
198
00:09:47,387 --> 00:09:50,987
We are reinforced,
and we have a very thick hull.
199
00:09:51,024 --> 00:09:52,764
And also, the amount of ribs in
200
00:09:52,793 --> 00:09:55,603
the ship, and the hull design.
201
00:09:55,629 --> 00:09:56,429
The hull design
202
00:09:56,463 --> 00:09:57,833
looks like a spoon.
203
00:09:57,865 --> 00:10:01,325
Most ships have a pointy bow,
or what's called the stem,
204
00:10:01,368 --> 00:10:02,838
and that stem would just be
205
00:10:02,870 --> 00:10:04,470
ripped off by the ice.
206
00:10:08,341 --> 00:10:11,241
Okay, help the stern
come back to port.
207
00:10:11,278 --> 00:10:19,888
*
208
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:21,660
This goes against all sense
209
00:10:21,689 --> 00:10:23,489
and seamanship and navigation,
210
00:10:23,523 --> 00:10:25,863
looking behind you
when you're driving a ship.
211
00:10:25,893 --> 00:10:29,503
We preach to our young ship
handlers to always look forward,
212
00:10:29,529 --> 00:10:30,799
but we look behind us,
213
00:10:30,831 --> 00:10:32,701
make sure we're driving
in a straight line,
214
00:10:32,733 --> 00:10:34,033
which makes it a lot easier
215
00:10:34,067 --> 00:10:36,697
for the supply ship to navigate
in when we escort them.
216
00:10:41,775 --> 00:10:44,205
With all the vibrations
and shaking,
217
00:10:44,244 --> 00:10:47,184
there's really
no way to get relief.
218
00:10:47,214 --> 00:10:49,954
We've got to just
power through it.
219
00:10:49,983 --> 00:10:55,723
*
220
00:10:59,693 --> 00:11:00,933
We're going to try to do
221
00:11:00,961 --> 00:11:03,831
what we were going to do
yesterday, again today.
222
00:11:03,864 --> 00:11:06,774
Okay, we're still intending
on one install per team,
223
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:07,740
is that right?
224
00:11:07,768 --> 00:11:08,998
Yeah.
225
00:11:09,036 --> 00:11:10,866
The Mount Erebus team
needs chopper time
226
00:11:10,904 --> 00:11:14,274
to fly to the world's
southernmost active volcano
227
00:11:14,307 --> 00:11:17,307
and cover 132 different sites
228
00:11:17,344 --> 00:11:19,954
to create a 3D image
of its inner workings.
229
00:11:19,980 --> 00:11:21,180
It's just a matter of
230
00:11:21,214 --> 00:11:23,054
if we have enough
ground definition to land.
231
00:11:23,083 --> 00:11:26,053
Then we could maybe
get some momentum.
232
00:11:26,086 --> 00:11:28,016
The storm
grounded them for days,
233
00:11:28,055 --> 00:11:29,055
and to make up time,
234
00:11:29,089 --> 00:11:30,919
they're splitting
into two groups,
235
00:11:30,958 --> 00:11:32,088
with the second team
236
00:11:32,125 --> 00:11:35,225
led by associate scientist
Martyn Unsworth
237
00:11:35,262 --> 00:11:37,732
and survival expert
Richie Hunter.
238
00:11:44,337 --> 00:11:46,607
The cloud ceiling
will be at 8,000 feet.
239
00:11:46,639 --> 00:11:49,839
Southerly winds 15 to 25 knots.
240
00:11:49,877 --> 00:11:53,207
Um, so, that'll be a key factor.
241
00:11:53,246 --> 00:11:56,216
Every site on Mount Erebus
is completely different.
242
00:11:56,249 --> 00:11:57,889
That really worries me.
243
00:11:57,918 --> 00:11:59,918
We're dealing with
completely different terrain,
244
00:11:59,953 --> 00:12:02,163
and the clouds on Mount Erebus
245
00:12:02,189 --> 00:12:04,419
can come in
at a moment's notice,
246
00:12:04,457 --> 00:12:08,027
so some sites are at risk
of, of extreme weather.
247
00:12:11,031 --> 00:12:12,971
The plan is for Danny
and Graham's team
248
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:17,540
to work site 92, on the southern
slope of the mountain...
249
00:12:20,273 --> 00:12:24,883
...while Martyn and Richie head
to site 68, on the north face.
250
00:12:38,691 --> 00:12:40,161
Yeah.
251
00:12:51,704 --> 00:12:55,184
That whole of Mount Erebus
is a mixture of glaciers,
252
00:12:55,208 --> 00:12:56,638
and it's heavily crevassed.
253
00:12:56,676 --> 00:13:00,246
Some of those crevasses are far
deeper than you'd ever imagine.
254
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,180
They're big, black, and scary,
255
00:13:02,215 --> 00:13:05,285
and the, the problem is,
they have a snow bridge,
256
00:13:05,318 --> 00:13:08,218
and that makes those crevasses
completely invisible.
257
00:13:49,496 --> 00:13:52,796
This site
is on a 25-degree slope,
258
00:13:52,832 --> 00:13:54,972
and most choppers
can't land safely
259
00:13:55,002 --> 00:13:57,402
on anything
more than 10 degrees.
260
00:14:05,545 --> 00:14:13,045
*
261
00:14:30,703 --> 00:14:34,073
When the slopes
exceed a safe landing angle,
262
00:14:34,107 --> 00:14:37,637
I'll get out very carefully
and actually chip away
263
00:14:37,677 --> 00:14:39,807
on a landing pad
on the side of the mountain.
264
00:14:45,285 --> 00:14:47,955
It's very important
we're 100 percent certain
265
00:14:47,988 --> 00:14:49,218
we're not on a snow bridge.
266
00:14:49,256 --> 00:14:51,016
The pilot will keep the machine
under power
267
00:14:51,058 --> 00:14:52,728
while we make that call.
268
00:15:01,601 --> 00:15:05,711
*
269
00:15:05,738 --> 00:15:08,978
I'm dealing with a volcano
underneath my feet.
270
00:15:09,009 --> 00:15:13,079
It's steep angle.
It's snow and ice slopes.
271
00:15:13,113 --> 00:15:15,653
If I make a mistake,
the outcome can be fatal.
272
00:15:15,682 --> 00:15:25,192
*
273
00:15:39,906 --> 00:15:41,906
The Mount Erebus
team's research site
274
00:15:41,941 --> 00:15:44,841
is too steep
for the chopper to land on,
275
00:15:44,877 --> 00:15:48,917
so field guide Richie
is stepping out, alone,
276
00:15:48,948 --> 00:15:51,118
to dig out a landing pad.
277
00:15:51,151 --> 00:15:52,791
This is not done very often.
278
00:15:52,819 --> 00:15:55,119
The danger, of course,
is it's incredibly hard work
279
00:15:55,155 --> 00:15:58,855
to be over 7,000 feet
in a polar region
280
00:15:58,891 --> 00:16:00,831
and having to dig a platform.
281
00:16:00,860 --> 00:16:02,160
That's the challenge.
282
00:16:02,195 --> 00:16:15,275
*
283
00:16:15,308 --> 00:16:19,208
*
284
00:16:28,821 --> 00:16:31,321
Break the old shovel
if you're not careful.
285
00:16:56,083 --> 00:16:56,883
Alright.
286
00:17:14,067 --> 00:17:15,367
If you dig it too deep,
287
00:17:15,402 --> 00:17:17,602
you can end up with the rotors
becoming far too close
288
00:17:17,637 --> 00:17:19,107
to the slope angle
of the mountain,
289
00:17:19,139 --> 00:17:21,339
so, given the risk,
you need to be on your A game,
290
00:17:21,374 --> 00:17:23,444
and that, that pilot
must have complete trust
291
00:17:23,476 --> 00:17:25,036
in us on the ground.
292
00:17:25,078 --> 00:17:39,888
*
293
00:17:39,926 --> 00:17:54,236
*
294
00:17:55,975 --> 00:17:58,945
*
295
00:18:23,170 --> 00:18:35,250
*
296
00:18:35,282 --> 00:18:36,382
So right now, in the front,
297
00:18:36,416 --> 00:18:39,016
we're coming in,
you can see the Onyx River,
298
00:18:39,051 --> 00:18:41,091
longest river in Antarctica.
299
00:18:41,120 --> 00:18:43,090
What a great view.
300
00:18:43,122 --> 00:18:45,862
99.7 percent of Antarctica
301
00:18:45,892 --> 00:18:48,202
is covered in snow and ice,
302
00:18:48,228 --> 00:18:52,968
but not here, 50 miles from
Scott Base, in the Dry Valleys.
303
00:19:02,275 --> 00:19:05,135
Virtually the only
life that can survive here
304
00:19:05,178 --> 00:19:06,578
is microscopic.
305
00:19:06,613 --> 00:19:07,653
And that's exactly why
306
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,050
Craig Cary and his team
are here.
307
00:19:20,092 --> 00:19:22,662
We made it! Yay!
308
00:19:25,365 --> 00:19:27,625
My obsession
is with understanding
309
00:19:27,667 --> 00:19:30,197
how organisms can survive
310
00:19:30,237 --> 00:19:33,967
in some of the most extreme
environments on the planet,
311
00:19:34,006 --> 00:19:36,206
the coldest places on Earth,
312
00:19:36,243 --> 00:19:38,813
the driest places on Earth.
313
00:19:38,845 --> 00:19:40,005
And the Dry Valleys
314
00:19:40,046 --> 00:19:43,446
is the coldest,
driest place in the world.
315
00:19:43,483 --> 00:19:44,323
How's it going, buddy?
316
00:19:44,351 --> 00:19:45,351
Good to see you again.
317
00:19:45,385 --> 00:19:46,785
Yeah.
Good to see you, man.
318
00:19:46,819 --> 00:19:50,059
The Dry Valleys is the largest
ice-free area on the continent,
319
00:19:50,089 --> 00:19:53,429
so, likely, it's got
the most biology.
320
00:19:56,929 --> 00:19:58,329
Made it to Miers.
321
00:19:58,365 --> 00:19:59,725
What a beautiful valley.
322
00:19:59,766 --> 00:20:02,366
Kind of nice to come
into a big camp like this,
323
00:20:02,402 --> 00:20:04,572
with all of our colleagues.
324
00:20:04,604 --> 00:20:05,744
For 21 days,
325
00:20:05,772 --> 00:20:09,182
12 scientists
will break into 3 teams...
326
00:20:09,208 --> 00:20:11,478
Another bright, sunny day.
327
00:20:11,511 --> 00:20:13,011
Time for some more work.
328
00:20:13,045 --> 00:20:14,275
...to cover 50 miles
329
00:20:14,314 --> 00:20:19,154
across Miers, Wright, Victoria,
and Taylor valleys...
330
00:20:19,185 --> 00:20:21,345
Today is the first
of our sample sites.
331
00:20:21,388 --> 00:20:22,688
It's going to be fun.
332
00:20:22,722 --> 00:20:24,762
...to learn
what the climate, the soil,
333
00:20:24,791 --> 00:20:26,931
and the microbial life
can teach us
334
00:20:26,959 --> 00:20:30,529
about our own ability
to adapt to a changing planet.
335
00:20:30,563 --> 00:20:32,233
These systems are very unique,
336
00:20:32,265 --> 00:20:35,535
and as things change,
climate-wise,
337
00:20:35,568 --> 00:20:39,308
they're going to change
and could change irreversibly.
338
00:20:39,339 --> 00:20:44,009
Species could die, and as
the stewards of this planet,
339
00:20:44,043 --> 00:20:47,883
we shouldn't
tolerate extinction.
340
00:20:47,914 --> 00:20:49,624
How long do you think
you guys are going to be?
341
00:20:49,649 --> 00:20:51,179
At least eight hours.
342
00:20:51,217 --> 00:20:52,017
Yeah.
343
00:20:52,051 --> 00:20:53,621
I'm a slowpoke.
344
00:20:53,653 --> 00:20:55,823
We got a couple of sites
to knock off this afternoon,
345
00:20:55,855 --> 00:20:59,455
and we got one group going to
the eastern side of the valley.
346
00:20:59,492 --> 00:21:01,632
Let's go.
347
00:21:01,661 --> 00:21:02,631
We've got people moving
348
00:21:02,662 --> 00:21:05,932
from Miers
up to the Wright Valley.
349
00:21:05,965 --> 00:21:07,495
SD card?
350
00:21:07,534 --> 00:21:08,974
Yes.
351
00:21:09,001 --> 00:21:10,971
This is exciting.
352
00:21:11,003 --> 00:21:12,173
So, Paul. Hey, Paul.
353
00:21:12,204 --> 00:21:15,074
What, so, what's,
what's up for today?
354
00:21:15,107 --> 00:21:16,677
So, I'm going
to head down there now,
355
00:21:16,709 --> 00:21:18,139
and then we'll fly.
356
00:21:18,177 --> 00:21:19,477
Okay.
357
00:21:19,512 --> 00:21:20,952
We'll see how it goes,
what the weather does.
358
00:21:20,980 --> 00:21:22,110
Keep us in the loop.
359
00:21:22,148 --> 00:21:24,578
Geospatial technician
Paul Bealing
360
00:21:24,617 --> 00:21:27,247
and climatologist
Marwan Katurji...
361
00:21:27,286 --> 00:21:29,156
Okay, Marwan,
go a little bit clockwise.
362
00:21:29,188 --> 00:21:30,018
Two degrees.
363
00:21:30,056 --> 00:21:31,086
Two degrees.
364
00:21:31,123 --> 00:21:32,663
...are creating a 3D map
365
00:21:32,692 --> 00:21:36,902
of the unique microclimates
that exist in the Dry Valleys.
366
00:21:36,929 --> 00:21:39,329
The climate group's
experiment flying
367
00:21:39,366 --> 00:21:41,526
was the final peg in the hole
that's going to create
368
00:21:41,568 --> 00:21:43,768
probably one of
the most interesting experiments
369
00:21:43,803 --> 00:21:48,113
that we've run in the valleys
since I've been working here.
370
00:21:48,140 --> 00:21:49,580
It's a big day.
371
00:21:49,609 --> 00:21:51,509
Nervous now, gotta fly.
372
00:21:51,544 --> 00:21:53,654
I always get nervous
before I fly.
373
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,310
Anything can happen.
374
00:21:57,484 --> 00:22:00,024
We go to the Dry Valleys
375
00:22:00,052 --> 00:22:03,162
because the surface cover
is very simple,
376
00:22:03,189 --> 00:22:04,919
and we can do observations
377
00:22:04,957 --> 00:22:07,457
that we can't do
anywhere else in the world.
378
00:22:07,494 --> 00:22:08,934
So, I'm going to start, Peyman.
379
00:22:08,961 --> 00:22:10,361
Okay.
380
00:22:10,397 --> 00:22:11,957
The drone
captures what's happening
381
00:22:11,998 --> 00:22:12,998
at the upper levels
382
00:22:13,032 --> 00:22:14,632
of the atmosphere,
383
00:22:14,667 --> 00:22:15,967
and that's combined with data
384
00:22:16,002 --> 00:22:17,772
from the lower levels,
385
00:22:17,804 --> 00:22:19,314
where most human activity
386
00:22:19,338 --> 00:22:20,508
takes place,
387
00:22:20,540 --> 00:22:22,810
to create a complete model.
388
00:22:22,842 --> 00:22:25,382
Okay, diags is running.
389
00:22:25,412 --> 00:22:28,382
What I've done now is set up
the high-end infrared camera,
390
00:22:28,415 --> 00:22:30,215
and what we're trying to do
is measure
391
00:22:30,249 --> 00:22:32,949
the surface temperature
of different surfaces,
392
00:22:32,985 --> 00:22:34,715
the coldest being the lake,
obviously,
393
00:22:34,754 --> 00:22:36,524
so the blue violet colors.
394
00:22:36,556 --> 00:22:37,716
And this is one of the dynamics
395
00:22:37,757 --> 00:22:40,587
we're trying to capture
in our analysis.
396
00:22:40,627 --> 00:22:42,087
That's what we want.
397
00:22:42,128 --> 00:22:43,698
Weather is a global phenomenon,
398
00:22:43,730 --> 00:22:45,900
and whatever happens
in Antarctica
399
00:22:45,932 --> 00:22:51,202
will affect eventually weather
in different areas in the world.
400
00:22:51,237 --> 00:22:53,037
Temperature, zero Celsius.
401
00:22:53,072 --> 00:22:55,372
Every now and then,
the wind picks up.
402
00:22:55,408 --> 00:22:57,778
My main focus is the surface.
403
00:22:57,810 --> 00:23:00,780
A few meters above the ground
is where people live,
404
00:23:00,813 --> 00:23:04,183
where we grow our crops,
so this is why it is important.
405
00:23:04,216 --> 00:23:05,916
Good enough.
406
00:23:05,952 --> 00:23:06,992
Alright.
407
00:23:07,019 --> 00:23:09,289
Next is flying the UAV.
408
00:23:16,496 --> 00:23:26,336
*
409
00:23:26,372 --> 00:23:38,622
*
410
00:23:52,298 --> 00:23:57,738
*
411
00:23:57,770 --> 00:23:59,140
When we break ice,
412
00:23:59,171 --> 00:24:04,441
it's like, imagine a 10,
12 Richter scale earthquake.
413
00:24:04,477 --> 00:24:08,847
To be on board
during that experience,
414
00:24:08,881 --> 00:24:12,151
just imagine yourself
in an earthquake for a week,
415
00:24:12,184 --> 00:24:13,924
nonstop.
416
00:24:13,953 --> 00:24:15,493
With all engines firing,
417
00:24:15,522 --> 00:24:20,992
the Polar St can smash through
about 950 feet of ice per hour.
418
00:24:21,027 --> 00:24:23,857
That means it has to break
14 hours a day
419
00:24:23,896 --> 00:24:26,526
in order to finish in a week.
420
00:24:26,566 --> 00:24:27,896
Most boats
don't like to go through
421
00:24:27,934 --> 00:24:29,104
even a thin layer of ice,
422
00:24:29,135 --> 00:24:30,795
and we're going
through six-foot, seven-foot,
423
00:24:30,837 --> 00:24:35,677
eight-foot chunks of ice
continuously.
424
00:24:35,708 --> 00:24:39,108
We're asking a lot
of a very old ship.
425
00:24:42,048 --> 00:24:44,218
My God.
426
00:24:44,250 --> 00:24:45,690
We're getting
an odd amount of water
427
00:24:45,718 --> 00:24:49,518
dripping from the number 90
turbine enclosure.
428
00:24:49,556 --> 00:24:51,156
Why is that doing that?
429
00:24:51,190 --> 00:24:53,030
We've got an alarm.
Send somebody to investigate it.
430
00:24:53,059 --> 00:24:54,689
Want me to put
the propulsion mode in neutral?
431
00:24:54,727 --> 00:24:55,997
You can put them all in neutral.
432
00:24:56,028 --> 00:24:57,958
We can't go anywhere.
433
00:24:57,997 --> 00:24:59,727
Something's going wrong.
434
00:25:03,703 --> 00:25:05,503
Main Control, Bridge.
435
00:25:05,538 --> 00:25:08,408
We're seeing some fluctuation
in the readings up here.
436
00:25:10,743 --> 00:25:14,013
Put the engines
on 30-minute standby.
437
00:25:14,046 --> 00:25:14,846
Alright, well.
438
00:25:14,881 --> 00:25:16,121
Okay, two hours?
439
00:25:16,148 --> 00:25:18,018
Turbines off, ma'am.
It's secure.
440
00:25:18,050 --> 00:25:20,020
Roger.
441
00:25:26,358 --> 00:25:28,288
We have to shut down propulsion
442
00:25:28,327 --> 00:25:32,157
and have experts on board
determine what's going on.
443
00:25:32,198 --> 00:25:36,998
If I lose a shaft, it's going to
cause all sorts of problems.
444
00:25:37,036 --> 00:25:39,306
If you can imagine
trying to drive your car
445
00:25:39,338 --> 00:25:42,438
with three wheels...
it won't work.
446
00:25:42,474 --> 00:25:44,984
So, the engineers
have to take time to fix it,
447
00:25:45,011 --> 00:25:46,911
and that slows my progress down.
448
00:25:46,946 --> 00:25:50,316
Potentially, could cause
the mission to fail.
449
00:25:50,349 --> 00:25:52,079
Can you go investigate?
450
00:25:52,118 --> 00:25:53,948
Micronet. Reset.
451
00:25:53,986 --> 00:25:57,016
Working on it.
452
00:25:57,056 --> 00:25:59,756
Trying to get it to be happy.
453
00:25:59,792 --> 00:26:01,232
Come on, ****.
454
00:26:01,260 --> 00:26:05,330
*
455
00:26:12,939 --> 00:26:14,309
Do you have an ETR?
456
00:26:14,340 --> 00:26:18,650
Give us like, two, two hours.
457
00:26:18,678 --> 00:26:21,448
Two hours. Roger.
458
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,450
Just an hour
into a week of breaking ice,
459
00:26:24,483 --> 00:26:25,793
a malfunctioning turbine
460
00:26:25,818 --> 00:26:29,788
has the Polar Star
dead in the water.
461
00:26:29,822 --> 00:26:31,262
Hello, Captain.
462
00:26:31,290 --> 00:26:33,360
Copeland found a bolt
that had come undone,
463
00:26:33,392 --> 00:26:35,432
so he's going to
repair that now.
464
00:26:35,461 --> 00:26:36,361
Thank you, Captain.
465
00:26:36,395 --> 00:26:37,725
Yep.
466
00:26:37,764 --> 00:26:42,004
The anti-rotation bar
is inside the shaft assembly.
467
00:26:42,034 --> 00:26:43,174
Each propeller shaft
468
00:26:43,202 --> 00:26:46,642
has an individual
oil distribution box.
469
00:26:46,673 --> 00:26:49,243
The anti-rotation bar
keeps it from moving
470
00:26:49,275 --> 00:26:50,905
while the shaft spins.
471
00:26:50,943 --> 00:26:55,353
If the bar breaks, the OD box
will twist itself apart,
472
00:26:55,381 --> 00:26:57,451
shutting the whole system down.
473
00:26:57,483 --> 00:26:59,493
Because of the shaking
of the ship,
474
00:26:59,518 --> 00:27:01,618
just like the paper clip
475
00:27:01,654 --> 00:27:03,794
gets bent and bent
and bent and breaks,
476
00:27:03,823 --> 00:27:05,523
so we don't have spares,
477
00:27:05,557 --> 00:27:08,357
so we have to manufacture them
from scratch.
478
00:27:08,394 --> 00:27:12,264
She's old. We got to baby her,
keep her going.
479
00:27:15,802 --> 00:27:19,042
So, we're doing a repair
for the anti-rotation bar
480
00:27:19,071 --> 00:27:22,781
in the number one shaft.
481
00:27:22,809 --> 00:27:27,079
So, we're welding a new one
before anything bad happens.
482
00:27:27,113 --> 00:27:30,183
The shaking of the ice, I mean,
it's violent, and it's nonstop.
483
00:27:33,686 --> 00:27:36,316
12 hours of violent shaking,
stuff's going to break,
484
00:27:36,355 --> 00:27:39,985
so we're just trying to prevent
that from happening again.
485
00:27:40,026 --> 00:27:41,086
She's an old girl.
486
00:27:41,127 --> 00:27:43,597
We're not going
to let her quit, though.
487
00:27:43,629 --> 00:27:55,039
*
488
00:27:55,074 --> 00:27:57,844
That should be good.
489
00:27:57,877 --> 00:28:01,007
The turbine shaft runs
along the bottom of the hull,
490
00:28:01,047 --> 00:28:03,977
through a labyrinth of pipes
and mechanical systems.
491
00:28:04,016 --> 00:28:05,146
We're going to leave it
right here for now
492
00:28:05,184 --> 00:28:07,854
because we got to take
that apart first.
493
00:28:07,887 --> 00:28:09,417
And before
they can replace it...
494
00:28:09,455 --> 00:28:11,085
Get that antirotation bar
in there.
495
00:28:11,123 --> 00:28:13,093
...they have to climb
through and prep it.
496
00:28:13,125 --> 00:28:14,425
Our job is to break the channel
497
00:28:14,460 --> 00:28:16,500
so that we can get
those supply ships in there
498
00:28:16,528 --> 00:28:19,228
and resupply the continent.
499
00:28:19,265 --> 00:28:21,325
Can you get some bilge filters?
500
00:28:21,367 --> 00:28:23,237
So, they don't realize it,
501
00:28:23,269 --> 00:28:24,699
but the crew down below
502
00:28:24,737 --> 00:28:27,807
has the weight of the entire
continent on their shoulders.
503
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:41,250
*
504
00:28:41,287 --> 00:28:44,117
7,000 feet up Mount Erebus,
505
00:28:44,156 --> 00:28:47,686
Martyn and his team are on the
leeward side of the mountain,
506
00:28:47,726 --> 00:28:51,296
and the conditions
are slowing them to a crawl.
507
00:28:51,330 --> 00:28:53,130
This will be
a pretty challenging site
508
00:28:53,165 --> 00:28:54,725
for the crew today.
509
00:28:56,668 --> 00:28:58,138
We're riddled with gradient.
510
00:28:58,170 --> 00:29:01,370
We've got sastrugi,
which is this surface snow,
511
00:29:01,407 --> 00:29:04,807
heavily affected
by wind, sun, or precipitation.
512
00:29:04,844 --> 00:29:07,814
It's been absolutely hammered
over the last two weeks.
513
00:29:07,847 --> 00:29:10,077
Sastrugi sort of forms ripples
in the snow,
514
00:29:10,116 --> 00:29:11,576
and you've probably seen
something sort of similar
515
00:29:11,617 --> 00:29:13,787
at a beach,
where the wind carves the sand
516
00:29:13,820 --> 00:29:15,890
into some really
quite incredible patterns.
517
00:29:15,922 --> 00:29:19,392
Now, the sastrugi in Antarctica
can get up to a meter high,
518
00:29:19,425 --> 00:29:22,255
so it's incredibly challenging
to dig in.
519
00:29:22,294 --> 00:29:27,204
Sometimes the shovel just
bounces straight back off it.
520
00:29:27,233 --> 00:29:29,473
But it's very slippery,
hard to walk on.
521
00:29:29,501 --> 00:29:32,401
And we all know that if any gear
disappears, not to chase it.
522
00:29:32,438 --> 00:29:34,138
We just wave it good-bye.
523
00:29:34,173 --> 00:29:36,213
The team
is working to bury sensors
524
00:29:36,242 --> 00:29:40,412
to create a 3D picture of
the volcano's inner magma flow.
525
00:29:40,446 --> 00:29:43,346
Pretty much centered,
which is what we're looking for,
526
00:29:43,382 --> 00:29:47,022
and we'll just double-check
the orientation.
527
00:29:47,053 --> 00:29:48,193
Yep, it's magnetic north,
528
00:29:48,220 --> 00:29:50,720
which is not the same
as geographic down here.
529
00:29:50,756 --> 00:29:52,826
It's actually,
quite a bit different.
530
00:29:58,464 --> 00:29:59,934
And each site requires
531
00:29:59,966 --> 00:30:03,996
$100,000 worth
of highly sensitive electronics.
532
00:30:04,036 --> 00:30:05,436
Up here, the snow has got
533
00:30:05,471 --> 00:30:07,811
some volcanic ash in it
and other stuff,
534
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:11,940
which makes it
a little bit more conductive.
535
00:30:14,981 --> 00:30:17,151
Come on.
536
00:30:17,183 --> 00:30:20,123
So, we're just waiting here
for the instrument to start.
537
00:30:20,152 --> 00:30:22,252
Richie, just we're having a bit
of a computer issue here.
538
00:30:22,288 --> 00:30:23,618
Okay.
539
00:30:23,655 --> 00:30:25,015
We have to see
it's working before we leave.
540
00:30:25,057 --> 00:30:26,757
Otherwise,
there's really no point.
541
00:30:26,792 --> 00:30:30,662
Um, we need to work
as quick as we can.
542
00:30:30,696 --> 00:30:34,896
I think one of these
cables is a little bit flakey.
543
00:30:34,934 --> 00:30:36,504
We want to reconsider our time.
544
00:30:36,535 --> 00:30:41,165
Yeah, I think we've gone
over our ground time actually.
545
00:30:41,207 --> 00:30:43,777
Scott Base, Scott Base.
Richie.
546
00:30:43,809 --> 00:30:47,349
Just a bit of an update for you.
We're still on site here.
547
00:30:47,379 --> 00:30:52,579
We'll be intending on leaving
here approximately 11:20.
548
00:31:00,826 --> 00:31:02,386
We're going to try
and hustle here, guys,
549
00:31:02,428 --> 00:31:07,698
so just keep on,
keep on winding the dial.
550
00:31:07,733 --> 00:31:09,043
Yeah, we're just waiting
on this thing,
551
00:31:09,068 --> 00:31:11,638
and sometimes, Richie,
these guys just don't cooperate.
552
00:31:11,670 --> 00:31:15,010
Mount Erebus has
a significant level of exposure.
553
00:31:15,041 --> 00:31:17,311
Based on the terrain
that we're operating in,
554
00:31:17,343 --> 00:31:18,843
it's a steep angle.
555
00:31:18,877 --> 00:31:20,047
We're dealing with a volcano,
556
00:31:20,079 --> 00:31:21,749
so we're potentially
looking at projectiles
557
00:31:21,780 --> 00:31:24,220
coming out of that, that crater
from time to time.
558
00:31:24,250 --> 00:31:27,190
If we have a delay, there can be
a significant safety concern.
559
00:31:27,219 --> 00:31:29,619
That's when things
can really go seriously wrong.
560
00:31:29,655 --> 00:31:31,755
We have got the GPS working.
561
00:31:31,790 --> 00:31:33,190
Someone just throw me
a jacket a minute.
562
00:31:33,225 --> 00:31:35,485
I'm just having
a hard time seeing.
563
00:31:38,998 --> 00:31:43,038
Okay, test data looks great.
564
00:31:43,069 --> 00:31:45,539
It's going.
It's looking good.
565
00:31:45,571 --> 00:31:46,941
Okay, let's get out of here.
566
00:31:49,875 --> 00:31:51,505
Antarctica's a stunning place,
567
00:31:51,543 --> 00:31:53,453
but it's incredibly dangerous.
568
00:31:53,479 --> 00:31:55,049
There're so many things
that could go wrong.
569
00:31:55,081 --> 00:31:57,481
The risk is always there.
It's always changing.
570
00:31:57,516 --> 00:31:59,086
Let's cool that good.
571
00:31:59,118 --> 00:32:00,318
So, there's a satisfaction
572
00:32:00,352 --> 00:32:02,052
of getting back home
at the end of the day.
573
00:32:02,088 --> 00:32:12,128
*
574
00:32:12,131 --> 00:32:17,701
*
575
00:32:17,736 --> 00:32:20,306
52 miles away in Miers Valley...
576
00:32:22,474 --> 00:32:25,884
It's really cold today.
Light winds.
577
00:32:25,911 --> 00:32:27,951
I hate to think
what it's doing up there.
578
00:32:27,980 --> 00:32:30,150
Paul is ready to put
his drone in the air
579
00:32:30,182 --> 00:32:32,122
for the first time.
580
00:32:32,151 --> 00:32:33,791
See what happens.
581
00:32:33,819 --> 00:32:35,689
I'll come fire up
the probe, okay?
582
00:32:35,721 --> 00:32:37,221
It records temperature,
583
00:32:37,256 --> 00:32:40,626
wind speed, and moisture
50 times a second,
584
00:32:40,659 --> 00:32:43,329
and captures
high-definition images.
585
00:32:43,362 --> 00:32:44,562
And the probe.
586
00:32:44,596 --> 00:32:46,296
Camera is on, probe is on.
587
00:32:46,332 --> 00:32:47,832
The equipment on board
is custom-made
588
00:32:47,866 --> 00:32:49,966
by guys
that make stuff for NASA.
589
00:32:50,002 --> 00:32:51,442
You do all your checks, man?
590
00:32:51,470 --> 00:32:52,670
Yep, yes, we did.
591
00:32:52,704 --> 00:32:56,614
So, we've got
around 80 grand in the air.
592
00:32:56,642 --> 00:32:58,042
Looks good.
593
00:32:58,077 --> 00:32:59,107
Ready?
594
00:32:59,145 --> 00:33:02,575
Oui, monsieur.
595
00:33:02,614 --> 00:33:04,484
Let's pull the pin
on this hand grenade.
596
00:33:04,516 --> 00:33:09,656
Pin in 3, 2, 1.
597
00:33:09,688 --> 00:33:11,058
Okay, are you ready?
598
00:33:11,090 --> 00:33:12,020
Confirm.
599
00:33:12,058 --> 00:33:13,658
I'm getting nervous.
600
00:33:13,692 --> 00:33:15,792
When I'm flying,
don't talk to me.
601
00:33:15,827 --> 00:33:18,057
I never feel relaxed
when this thing's in the air.
602
00:33:18,097 --> 00:33:20,027
Anything could happen.
603
00:33:20,066 --> 00:33:21,766
Okay, here we go.
604
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,170
Alrighty, let's get this thing
in the sky.
605
00:33:33,179 --> 00:33:34,249
Alright, probe is out.
606
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:35,350
Probe is out.
It's at waypoint?
607
00:33:35,381 --> 00:33:36,851
Yes.
608
00:33:38,917 --> 00:33:40,987
Waypoint engaged.
609
00:33:41,019 --> 00:33:42,689
To get a complete data set,
610
00:33:42,721 --> 00:33:44,361
the autopilot flies the drone
611
00:33:44,390 --> 00:33:47,260
on a set path
at different altitudes,
612
00:33:47,293 --> 00:33:49,763
over and over again.
613
00:33:49,795 --> 00:33:51,725
Alright, it's turning
around its waypoint.
614
00:33:51,763 --> 00:33:52,563
Heading east?
615
00:33:52,598 --> 00:33:53,468
Yep.
616
00:33:53,499 --> 00:33:54,499
Perfect.
617
00:33:54,533 --> 00:33:55,733
Halfway to its second waypoint
618
00:33:55,767 --> 00:33:57,967
and then make a right-hand turn.
619
00:33:58,003 --> 00:33:58,943
And it's designed to fly
620
00:33:58,970 --> 00:34:02,040
in wind speeds over 40 knots.
621
00:34:02,074 --> 00:34:03,444
It's doing well.
622
00:34:03,475 --> 00:34:06,805
So far, everything's
working according to plan.
623
00:34:06,845 --> 00:34:09,875
It's maintaining
its 100-foot altitude.
624
00:34:09,915 --> 00:34:11,645
I've got good battery voltage.
625
00:34:11,683 --> 00:34:14,123
Just have to wait for it
to finish.
626
00:34:14,153 --> 00:34:17,693
So, now it's halfway
along its path.
627
00:34:17,723 --> 00:34:19,233
It's struggling a bit
through the wind.
628
00:34:19,258 --> 00:34:20,628
Yeah, there's definitely
quite a bit of wind up there.
629
00:34:20,659 --> 00:34:22,889
It's 29 knots.
It's really blowing up there.
630
00:34:22,928 --> 00:34:24,558
You wouldn't believe.
631
00:34:24,596 --> 00:34:26,296
Climb to 100 feet.
632
00:34:26,332 --> 00:34:28,472
33 knots!
633
00:34:28,500 --> 00:34:32,740
34, 35, 37, 39, 40, 42.
634
00:34:32,771 --> 00:34:34,541
What's it doing?
635
00:34:34,573 --> 00:34:35,743
Drifted a bit.
636
00:34:35,774 --> 00:34:37,114
Yeah, it missed
its waypoint, did it?
637
00:34:37,143 --> 00:34:38,143
Yeah.
638
00:34:38,177 --> 00:34:39,847
I've never seen that before.
639
00:34:39,878 --> 00:34:41,678
Not a good sign.
640
00:34:41,713 --> 00:34:43,953
Is the orientation
on the compass wrong?
641
00:34:43,982 --> 00:34:45,152
It's way off track.
642
00:34:45,184 --> 00:34:47,054
I think it got a strong gust.
643
00:34:47,085 --> 00:34:49,315
It's starting to get, like,
beyond its capability.
644
00:34:49,355 --> 00:34:51,185
Yeah,
the compass is off by 180, man.
645
00:34:51,223 --> 00:34:52,023
Want me to go manual?
646
00:34:52,057 --> 00:34:53,527
Yeah, just go.
647
00:34:53,559 --> 00:34:55,829
Okay, we'll go manual.
648
00:34:55,861 --> 00:34:56,961
Heart rate goes up.
649
00:34:59,231 --> 00:35:01,431
You need to know how
to fly the thing manually
650
00:35:01,467 --> 00:35:03,067
because things go wrong.
651
00:35:03,101 --> 00:35:05,941
It always gets knocked around
there?
652
00:35:05,971 --> 00:35:08,511
I don't mind flying
in some wind,
653
00:35:08,540 --> 00:35:11,510
but when you're getting up
some really high wind speed,
654
00:35:11,543 --> 00:35:12,983
there's always a bit of nerves.
655
00:35:13,011 --> 00:35:15,111
Let's see how straight
you can fly in this wind.
656
00:35:15,147 --> 00:35:16,377
I'm just going to pick
a point on the horizon
657
00:35:16,415 --> 00:35:18,445
and go for it.
658
00:35:18,484 --> 00:35:20,094
We've just brought the one UAV,
659
00:35:20,118 --> 00:35:23,088
so, if the plane crashes,
we go home.
660
00:35:23,121 --> 00:35:25,221
Doing some funkiness there.
661
00:35:25,257 --> 00:35:27,357
We've got winds coming
from the other direction now.
662
00:35:27,393 --> 00:35:30,833
44, 45, 47, 49 knots.
663
00:35:30,862 --> 00:35:33,602
That's over 100 kilometers
an hour.
664
00:35:33,632 --> 00:35:34,902
I'm going to write this down.
665
00:35:34,933 --> 00:35:40,713
50, 52, 53, 54...
666
00:35:40,739 --> 00:35:43,039
59, 60!
667
00:35:43,074 --> 00:35:44,744
Record.
668
00:35:44,776 --> 00:35:46,006
It's still pointing
in the right direction?
669
00:35:46,044 --> 00:35:47,414
It's drifting towards us.
670
00:35:48,914 --> 00:35:51,224
What's it doing?
671
00:35:51,250 --> 00:35:52,980
The curse of Antarctica.
672
00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:03,630
What's it doing?
673
00:36:03,662 --> 00:36:04,862
It's still pointing
in the right direction?
674
00:36:04,896 --> 00:36:06,396
It's drifting towards us.
675
00:36:06,432 --> 00:36:07,602
Paul is flying
676
00:36:07,633 --> 00:36:10,273
the climate team's
$80,000 drone system.
677
00:36:10,302 --> 00:36:11,802
It's fighting so much wind.
678
00:36:11,837 --> 00:36:13,267
It just can't handle it.
679
00:36:13,305 --> 00:36:17,405
And the winds are
gusting to 70 miles per hour.
680
00:36:17,443 --> 00:36:19,143
Maintain heading.
I'll tell you when to turn.
681
00:36:19,177 --> 00:36:21,877
Thank you. That's good.
682
00:36:21,913 --> 00:36:27,653
Do a right-hand turn
in 3, 2, 1, now.
683
00:36:27,686 --> 00:36:28,816
How's that?
684
00:36:28,854 --> 00:36:31,324
That's good.
Maintain heading.
685
00:36:31,357 --> 00:36:33,927
That's easier said than
done when it's blowing 54 knots.
686
00:36:33,959 --> 00:36:35,189
You're doing good.
687
00:36:35,227 --> 00:36:36,227
We're seeing
688
00:36:36,262 --> 00:36:37,832
60-knot average wind speeds,
689
00:36:37,863 --> 00:36:39,103
which is very high.
690
00:36:39,130 --> 00:36:41,670
The most I've ever flown in
is about 50 knots.
691
00:36:41,700 --> 00:36:44,540
Left-hand turn a bit.
Keep going.
692
00:36:44,570 --> 00:36:46,040
But, yeah,
there's obviously more pressure
693
00:36:46,071 --> 00:36:48,841
to make the most
of the remaining time we've got.
694
00:36:48,874 --> 00:36:50,414
It's got to move south a bit.
695
00:36:50,442 --> 00:36:51,382
And if we don't fly,
696
00:36:51,410 --> 00:36:52,240
they're going to be missing
697
00:36:52,278 --> 00:36:53,548
the last component of the data
698
00:36:53,579 --> 00:36:55,379
that they planned on getting.
699
00:36:55,414 --> 00:37:00,424
A right-hand turn again
in 3, 2, 1.
700
00:37:00,452 --> 00:37:01,952
I think it just can't handle it.
701
00:37:01,987 --> 00:37:03,317
It's too much wind for it.
702
00:37:03,355 --> 00:37:05,415
We'll do a couple more,
and we'll call it off.
703
00:37:08,427 --> 00:37:10,697
Do a left-hand adjustment
a little bit.
704
00:37:10,729 --> 00:37:11,859
Like that?
705
00:37:11,897 --> 00:37:12,827
Because it's struggling
into that wind,
706
00:37:12,864 --> 00:37:14,474
it's using battery up faster.
707
00:37:14,500 --> 00:37:15,630
We might have to land.
708
00:37:15,667 --> 00:37:17,497
Keep going.
Almost there.
709
00:37:17,536 --> 00:37:19,166
Right-hand turn, now.
710
00:37:21,307 --> 00:37:22,437
A low battery.
711
00:37:22,474 --> 00:37:24,214
Now I've got a battery left.
I'm coming home.
712
00:37:24,242 --> 00:37:26,042
Okay. That's good.
713
00:37:26,077 --> 00:37:27,777
The team has a complete data set
714
00:37:27,813 --> 00:37:29,523
from higher altitude,
715
00:37:29,548 --> 00:37:32,848
but they still need to get
the drone back in one piece.
716
00:37:32,884 --> 00:37:36,194
We've got to figure out
where we're going to land.
717
00:37:36,221 --> 00:37:40,231
So, this dry, dusty sand
gets into the motor,
718
00:37:40,258 --> 00:37:42,788
so we're going to try and land
on this wet sand.
719
00:37:42,828 --> 00:37:44,728
Of course, the danger with that
is there's a river,
720
00:37:44,763 --> 00:37:47,503
so if we overshoot our landing
and we end up in the drink,
721
00:37:47,533 --> 00:37:48,333
that'll be bad.
722
00:37:48,367 --> 00:37:50,797
The gear is not waterproof.
723
00:37:50,836 --> 00:37:51,936
You ready?
724
00:37:51,970 --> 00:37:53,570
Retract the probe, please,
Marwan.
725
00:37:53,605 --> 00:37:55,165
Okay, the probe
should be retracted.
726
00:37:55,206 --> 00:37:56,066
Okay, good.
727
00:37:56,107 --> 00:38:03,977
*
728
00:38:04,015 --> 00:38:05,545
You like how I hopped the river?
729
00:38:05,584 --> 00:38:06,494
How cool was that?
730
00:38:06,518 --> 00:38:08,018
Outstanding!
731
00:38:10,356 --> 00:38:12,286
So, from the angle
I was standing back there,
732
00:38:12,324 --> 00:38:13,494
there's a bit of terrain.
733
00:38:13,525 --> 00:38:14,785
You can see the skid mark.
734
00:38:14,826 --> 00:38:16,996
Bounce. Jumped.
735
00:38:19,965 --> 00:38:21,595
We have data!
736
00:38:21,633 --> 00:38:22,573
We got data?
737
00:38:22,601 --> 00:38:24,841
Yeah, we got 21 megabytes.
738
00:38:24,870 --> 00:38:27,610
So, I'm thinking it was
quite stagnant on this side.
739
00:38:27,639 --> 00:38:29,069
There was localized
high pressure,
740
00:38:29,107 --> 00:38:31,277
and that will basically
push the high winds
741
00:38:31,309 --> 00:38:33,449
a bit further south
to the valley.
742
00:38:33,479 --> 00:38:36,549
Could be one of the hypothesis
what you're observing here.
743
00:38:36,582 --> 00:38:39,252
I think we got really good data
from the UAV this year.
744
00:38:39,284 --> 00:38:40,954
We were able to fly
745
00:38:40,986 --> 00:38:43,556
from the sandy surface
of the Dry Valleys
746
00:38:43,589 --> 00:38:45,159
over the frozen lake,
747
00:38:45,190 --> 00:38:48,260
so we were able to measure
two different surface types,
748
00:38:48,293 --> 00:38:50,903
but also wind speed
and temperature
749
00:38:50,929 --> 00:38:54,029
from the surface
up to 300 feet above the ground,
750
00:38:54,065 --> 00:38:55,565
so we have information
751
00:38:55,601 --> 00:38:59,041
on how the upper wind systems
interact with those surfaces,
752
00:38:59,070 --> 00:39:01,840
so thankfully
we achieved what we wanted.
753
00:39:01,873 --> 00:39:02,973
Certainly interesting.
754
00:39:03,008 --> 00:39:04,038
Well done.
755
00:39:06,378 --> 00:39:08,648
That's the highest
wind speed I've ever flown in,
756
00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:11,050
so that was exciting.
757
00:39:11,082 --> 00:39:13,622
I'm officially
a copilot now, not a scientist.
758
00:39:20,826 --> 00:39:26,466
*
759
00:39:26,498 --> 00:39:28,398
We're down
to a couple hundred meters
760
00:39:28,434 --> 00:39:30,744
left to, turn off.
761
00:39:30,769 --> 00:39:33,909
And from there, we'll be in
completely uncharted territory
762
00:39:33,939 --> 00:39:36,169
where we finally pull up.
763
00:39:36,207 --> 00:39:37,677
We're going to step foot
764
00:39:37,709 --> 00:39:41,949
where probably no other human
has ever stepped foot before,
765
00:39:41,980 --> 00:39:45,650
which is
a pretty unique feeling.
766
00:39:45,684 --> 00:39:49,894
After days of delays
and punishing driving,
767
00:39:49,921 --> 00:39:53,461
the Ross Ice Shelf team is
finally in sight of their goal.
768
00:39:53,492 --> 00:39:57,362
Less than 200 meters,
the traverse of 2015,
769
00:39:57,395 --> 00:39:59,195
and the end of a saga.
770
00:39:59,230 --> 00:40:00,030
Woo-hoo!
771
00:40:01,467 --> 00:40:03,327
Team is approaching.
772
00:40:03,368 --> 00:40:07,468
375 kilometers,
773
00:40:07,506 --> 00:40:11,636
an average speed
of 12.1 kilometers an hour,
774
00:40:11,677 --> 00:40:17,447
a total moving time
of 30 hours and 56 minutes.
775
00:40:17,483 --> 00:40:19,153
Wow.
776
00:40:19,184 --> 00:40:19,994
Hey, look!
777
00:40:20,018 --> 00:40:21,748
Woo!
778
00:40:25,624 --> 00:40:27,634
We were getting
quite bored of driving.
779
00:40:27,659 --> 00:40:30,429
Finally to get there,
that's a magical moment.
780
00:40:30,462 --> 00:40:32,802
You know, we've just dragged
all this equipment out there,
781
00:40:32,831 --> 00:40:35,371
you know,
a few hundred thousand dollars,
782
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:36,800
several years of planning,
783
00:40:36,835 --> 00:40:39,195
six months of construction,
and then it all comes together.
784
00:40:39,237 --> 00:40:43,237
*
785
00:40:43,274 --> 00:40:46,884
We're in the middle
of nowhere right now.
786
00:40:46,912 --> 00:40:48,352
Well, congratulations.
787
00:40:48,379 --> 00:40:50,179
Yeah!
788
00:40:52,283 --> 00:40:57,463
We're about 367 kilometers
from, Scott Base,
789
00:40:57,489 --> 00:41:01,489
where we left
four or so days ago.
790
00:41:03,695 --> 00:41:05,495
Right on! Okay.
791
00:41:05,531 --> 00:41:08,531
Rob T.
792
00:41:08,567 --> 00:41:13,367
2015, yeah!
793
00:41:13,404 --> 00:41:15,244
This is where
we're going to call home
794
00:41:15,273 --> 00:41:17,243
for the next week or so,
795
00:41:17,275 --> 00:41:19,205
so, we're going to make camp.
796
00:41:19,244 --> 00:41:22,314
It's going to be
a busy week or so ahead.
797
00:41:22,347 --> 00:41:24,717
We've got a lot of
science objectives to complete,
798
00:41:24,750 --> 00:41:27,150
and hopefully, fingers crossed,
all goes well,
799
00:41:27,185 --> 00:41:31,415
they'll find what they're
looking for on the seabed.
800
00:41:31,456 --> 00:41:32,916
It's only just begun.
801
00:41:32,958 --> 00:41:44,798
*
802
00:41:44,836 --> 00:41:46,296
Just looking at the map,
803
00:41:46,337 --> 00:41:48,807
looking what we already have,
where things are.
804
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:50,980
After deploying an extra team,
805
00:41:51,009 --> 00:41:54,779
Graham and Danny are checking
on the season's progress,
806
00:41:54,813 --> 00:41:56,823
and the news isn't good.
807
00:41:56,848 --> 00:41:57,878
Last week, we didn't do much,
808
00:41:57,916 --> 00:41:59,276
because of weather, at all.
809
00:41:59,317 --> 00:42:00,817
We'll never finish.
810
00:42:00,852 --> 00:42:02,322
A lot of places to go still.
811
00:42:02,353 --> 00:42:05,263
There are 59 completed.
812
00:42:05,290 --> 00:42:07,230
There are 10 in the ground.
813
00:42:07,258 --> 00:42:11,628
There are 2 left to repeat
and 62 incompleted,
814
00:42:11,663 --> 00:42:14,573
so it's a bit grim.
815
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,800
I don't think
we have any chance.
816
00:42:16,835 --> 00:42:20,235
These are some of the most
expensive measurements ever,
817
00:42:20,271 --> 00:42:21,671
ever made in the world.
818
00:42:21,707 --> 00:42:23,067
Because just the amount
819
00:42:23,108 --> 00:42:25,408
of resource and infrastructure
820
00:42:25,443 --> 00:42:26,653
that goes into making these
821
00:42:26,678 --> 00:42:29,248
measurements is, is huge.
822
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:31,420
And it's not looking like
we're going to quite manage
823
00:42:31,449 --> 00:42:32,319
to get it done.
824
00:42:32,350 --> 00:42:33,690
I wasn't expecting it.
825
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:36,119
Yeah, it seems
a bit daunting at this point.
826
00:42:38,924 --> 00:42:40,194
If we get a good weather run,
827
00:42:40,225 --> 00:42:43,025
we, we'll be able
to catch up a bit, hopefully.
828
00:42:43,061 --> 00:42:46,601
So, basically we just
need flying days, but we'll see.
829
00:42:46,632 --> 00:42:49,332
We're not really in control
of the flight schedule.
830
00:42:49,367 --> 00:42:51,167
It's hugely frustrating,
831
00:42:51,202 --> 00:42:54,112
but you also have to realize
that's part of the game
832
00:42:54,139 --> 00:42:55,209
when you sign up
833
00:42:55,240 --> 00:42:56,440
to work in Antarctica.
834
00:42:56,474 --> 00:42:58,544
And we'll keep plugging away
with hard work.
835
00:42:58,576 --> 00:42:59,906
Feels like
it's going to be stable
836
00:42:59,945 --> 00:43:02,545
for the next two flying days,
which is perfect.
837
00:43:02,580 --> 00:43:04,080
To get another four done
by the end of the week
838
00:43:04,115 --> 00:43:06,175
would be great.
839
00:43:06,217 --> 00:43:07,547
One day at a time.
840
00:43:07,585 --> 00:43:17,155
*
841
00:43:17,195 --> 00:43:20,125
The Polar Star
has been paralyzed for hours.
842
00:43:20,165 --> 00:43:21,595
OX for Main Control, go ahead.
843
00:43:21,633 --> 00:43:23,303
While
Lieutenant Morrison and the team
844
00:43:23,334 --> 00:43:26,144
improvised a fix
for one of the turbines.
845
00:43:26,171 --> 00:43:28,271
I don't think you're ready
to get it down there.
846
00:43:28,306 --> 00:43:31,136
Now, the only thing
to do is install it...
847
00:43:31,176 --> 00:43:32,776
It's slippery down here.
848
00:43:32,811 --> 00:43:35,151
...under tons and tons
of equipment.
849
00:43:35,180 --> 00:43:38,520
Right now, we are
underneath the starboard shaft
850
00:43:38,549 --> 00:43:40,619
in the motor room, in the bilge.
851
00:43:40,652 --> 00:43:45,222
Right out there, a little
further down, is the water.
852
00:43:45,256 --> 00:43:48,026
It's actually really cold
right here.
853
00:43:48,059 --> 00:43:49,489
Main Control, Con.
854
00:43:54,599 --> 00:43:55,829
Roger, okay.
Thank you.
855
00:43:57,703 --> 00:43:58,873
Yeah.
856
00:44:02,473 --> 00:44:03,783
This ship is 40 years old.
857
00:44:03,809 --> 00:44:04,709
Got it?
858
00:44:04,743 --> 00:44:05,883
Yeah.
859
00:44:05,911 --> 00:44:09,251
Older than most
of the people on board.
860
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:10,180
Pretty close?
861
00:44:10,215 --> 00:44:12,245
Alright, go up a little.
862
00:44:12,283 --> 00:44:15,923
Alright, that's good.
863
00:44:15,954 --> 00:44:18,794
Alright.
864
00:44:18,824 --> 00:44:20,664
The young men and women
down below deck
865
00:44:20,692 --> 00:44:24,932
sacrifice their time and their
families and holiday seasons.
866
00:44:24,963 --> 00:44:28,433
They work night and day to make
sure this ship stays under way,
867
00:44:28,466 --> 00:44:30,096
that those propellers
keep turning.
868
00:44:30,135 --> 00:44:32,035
Just as long
as you jam that super tight.
869
00:44:32,070 --> 00:44:34,540
I'll give it one more crank.
870
00:44:34,572 --> 00:44:35,372
Ready?
871
00:44:35,406 --> 00:44:36,666
Yep.
872
00:44:36,708 --> 00:44:38,608
It's pretty amazing
to see what they can do.
873
00:44:41,046 --> 00:44:42,546
You guys got yours
all tightened up?
874
00:44:42,580 --> 00:44:43,920
Yeah.
875
00:44:43,949 --> 00:44:45,949
This whole mechanism right
above us is pretty significant,
876
00:44:45,984 --> 00:44:48,154
So, the more secure this is,
877
00:44:48,186 --> 00:44:50,716
the less vibration and damage
we can cause.
878
00:44:50,756 --> 00:44:53,016
We don't have anything
supporting this OD box,
879
00:44:53,058 --> 00:44:54,728
this shaft is not rolling,
880
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:56,860
and that would be it
for the Polar Star.
881
00:44:56,895 --> 00:44:58,625
Are we all good
down there, guys?
882
00:44:58,663 --> 00:45:00,303
Installed, ready to go.
883
00:45:00,331 --> 00:45:01,771
Alright,
we're going to start coming out.
884
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:03,070
Hopefully
it will hold this time.
885
00:45:03,101 --> 00:45:08,011
*
886
00:45:08,039 --> 00:45:09,809
Are you standing by,
number three main gas turbine?
887
00:45:13,544 --> 00:45:14,514
You ready for a start?
888
00:45:16,581 --> 00:45:17,821
Standby, stand clear for a start
889
00:45:17,849 --> 00:45:19,849
on number three
main gas turbine.
890
00:45:19,885 --> 00:45:21,315
Standby, stand clear for a start
891
00:45:21,352 --> 00:45:22,552
of the number three
main gas turbine!
892
00:45:26,091 --> 00:45:27,961
Chief, we're ready
to go on the port turbine.
893
00:45:29,895 --> 00:45:32,425
Main gas turbine,
port shaft up to speed.
894
00:45:32,463 --> 00:45:34,503
Roger.
895
00:45:34,532 --> 00:45:35,902
Restart number one.
896
00:45:49,614 --> 00:45:57,524
*
897
00:45:57,555 --> 00:45:59,155
Where we at?
898
00:46:01,893 --> 00:46:04,403
Fuel pressure
seems to be holding.
899
00:46:08,967 --> 00:46:14,407
Check your regulator.
Make sure you have pressure.
900
00:46:14,439 --> 00:46:15,469
Pressure is 55.
901
00:46:15,506 --> 00:46:17,536
Good, you are good.
902
00:46:17,575 --> 00:46:18,435
Alright.
903
00:46:21,312 --> 00:46:22,212
Woo!
904
00:46:26,885 --> 00:46:29,485
Roger.
System intact, lube oil, 2-0.
905
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:31,060
Solid, dude, solid.
906
00:46:31,089 --> 00:46:33,319
Yeah, our motto is,
'You break it, we fix it.'
907
00:46:33,358 --> 00:46:34,958
Nice. Success.
908
00:46:34,993 --> 00:46:37,563
They have inspected it
and found it to be normal,
909
00:46:37,595 --> 00:46:39,155
so we're safe to operate now,
910
00:46:39,197 --> 00:46:43,427
and, resume
icebreaking operations.
911
00:46:43,468 --> 00:46:48,238
Hopefully it won't vibrate as
much, and the repair will hold.
912
00:46:48,273 --> 00:46:51,983
That's probably the number one
challenge for Polar Star
913
00:46:52,010 --> 00:46:54,450
is to keep her operational.
914
00:46:54,479 --> 00:46:56,649
I'm very, very proud
of these young people.
915
00:46:56,681 --> 00:46:59,051
But we're falling way behind.
916
00:46:59,084 --> 00:47:00,954
All have four.
917
00:47:00,986 --> 00:47:04,556
Helmsman, all add four.
918
00:47:04,589 --> 00:47:06,119
We have to work around the clock
919
00:47:06,157 --> 00:47:10,097
to finish the channel before
the supply ships get here.65896
