    S4 Ep12: Travelling in the Tractor Train Traverse, with Nick Withey and Rory Fleet
    2025/04/21
    Meet the ice road truckers of Antarctica: the Tractor Train Traverse team, who drive supplies and fuel huge distances across the frozen wilderness to help scientists work in the deep field. With no garage in sight - and, in fact, nothing much else - this hardy and skilled team have to maintain the vehicles as they travel, living and working together to traverse the Antarctic interior.
    Nadia talks to Nick Withey, Traverse Vehicle Engineering Manager, and mechanic and first time traverser Rory Fleet - both recently back in the UK after a busy season in Antarctica. Nick and Rory talk about navigation, safety and scouting, fixing vehicles in the snow, and the weird experience of motion sickness in a whiteout. This long, slow road trip could be the closest experience you can get on Earth to traversing another planet.

  • S4 Ep11: Doctors of Antarctica, with Dr Nisha Mistry and Dr Rebecca Boys

    S4 Ep11: Doctors of Antarctica, with Dr Nisha Mistry and Dr Rebecca Boys
    2025/04/07
    For medics dreaming of an adventure, there's nothing quite like being deployed for a season to Antarctica. The role of doctor on an Antarctic research station or research ship is a huge responsibility - in an emergency, external help could be days or weeks away.
    In this episode, Nadia speaks to Dr Nisha Mistry, who is currently working as the doctor on the polar ship RRS Sir David Attenborough, and Dr Rebecca Boys, was one of the doctors at Rothera Research Station in 2022. They talk about what it takes to prepare for deployment, learning to tackle dentistry for the first time, and the unique and trusted role that doctors have looking after communities in one of the most extreme environments on Earth.

  • S4 Ep10: Moss, mites, bacteria and algae: looking for the smallest life in Antarctica

    S4 Ep10: Moss, mites, bacteria and algae: looking for the smallest life in Antarctica
    2025/03/24
    From algae and moss, to mites and bacteria, Antarctica is teaming with life - a lot of it is just really small. Nadia chats to four Dutch researchers from the Gerritz Laboratory at Rothera Research Station, each looking for answers about Antarctica's smallest terrestrial and marine life.
    Mareike Bach talks about her fascinating search for sea ice algae, drilling into pancake ice from a suspected cradle on the ship. Dr Swan Sow maps microbial life in the Southern Ocean to understand how climate change impacts nutrient cycles. Dr Stef Bokhorst explores the relationship between Antarctic plants and invertebrates, and Seringe Huisman tracks the "greening" of Antarctica using satellite imagery to study mosses and lichens.
