INSPIRE 22 Team Takes Off to Ski Across Antarctica
Imagine an expedition to the South Pole. But imagine carrying all your own supplies, sleds of around 80-100kgs for up to 50 days whilst battling high winds of around 100kph, temperatures dropping to as low as -50°C and finishing at an altitude of 2835m above sea level. It’s hard to even imagine, isn’t it? It’s much, much harder to execute! Project 150 is supporting INSPIRE 22, an interdisciplinary South Pole innovation & research expedition to the South Pole whose ultimate aim is to explore the metabolic cost of sustained polar travel.
