Various photos

The morning that we were flying out, we had to go back out to the testbed site because there was some concern that are instrumentation was getting too hot. I was unconvinced and remain so, but we removed some insulation from the box and stacked the outside with snow to help reflect the light.















The station hallways are decorated with the photos of all the winterover crews, memorials to those who died at the South Pole, and various other plaques and mementos. Here are two that I thought might be of interest.

































The display case with former South Pole markers




















The station reflected in the sphere.















This is the photo I was trying to get earlier showing the new and old pole markers. The blocks of snow in the background are for a ice carving competition that I missed.
