Hey! Trust us! We know what we're doing! |
It's all about teamwork... |
...you can do anything with the right crew! |
Concentration to the task is key... |
No guys, come on...like this... |
24 down...41 to go... |
With any work of art, there is always trial and error. |
But once you get the system working... |

| Report from Chief Scientist Rebecca Woodgate,
August 31, 2002
A quick update for the weekend. CTDing away here
merrily. The ice suddenly opened up. They did casts last
night where there was no ice to be seen and ship's roll started to be noticeable!
We topped 14 knots at times today, but now are back to the more usual 5
or 6. She's a BIG powerful ship. While other icebreakers will fall
into a crack they make in the ice, changing their heading to go with the
crack, the Polar Star just carries straight on. Must run. CTD just
on deck.
