Description
From the navigation room to the floating laboratories, including cabins and water rooms, a tour inside Tara, a scientific observatory described as the 'international space station of ice' designed to withstand extreme temperatures and ice pressure. In 2026, it will drift with the currents, allowing the collection of thousands of samples from beneath the ice pack, within the ice, and in the atmosphere of this region of the globe that is warming three to four times faster than the rest of the planet.
