We Sailed 850 Miles Into the Ice For Science

Life at sea is dictated by the weather and the conditions you are presented with. The crew of sailors and scientists onboard the delivery to the world’s largest fjord system, Kangertittivaq in Greenland, are experiencing exactly that and making the most of the ups and downs of life at sea. Fall asleep whilst eating? Face masks in a washing machine? Skies with dancing flickers of green? Just a day in the life of sailors and scientists on the Malizia Explorer.

In this second episode of the MEGA Mission (Marine Ecosystems and Glacier Analysis) of Scoresby Fjord Systems, the Malizia Explorer heads from Bodø to Greenland. It experiences glassy magical sunsets, as well as seasickness in the cold and bumpy stormy weather fronts. It finishes it's 7 day journey in the Scoresby Fjord, Greenland, with a mystical welcome between many icebergs. Catch up on all of it in this latest episode!
