Recently, 3 very lucky and intrepid APECS members - our Director Jenny Baeseman, Council Chair Silije-Kristin Jensen, and Mentor Calista Morrison - departed for Ushuaia, the most Southern city of the earth.
During the next 2 weeks they will be part of the education team of the the Students on Ice Antarctic University Expedition 2011.
You can follow their adventures at www.uantarctic.org and keep track of daily expedition updates at http://www.uantarctic.org/2011-daily.php.
