October 2, 2022, the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Healy reached the North Pole, and the crew took to the ice to celebrate the milestone of reaching 90 degrees north! Some crew members and scientists participated in the Float Your Boat outreach program by decorating wooden boats to deploy alongside IABP buoys and arranging them in a '90 N' on the ice to celebrate reaching the North Pole. The boats deployed by the Healy can be followed here ("Green" Boat #168-900, 930-1019): www.floatboat.org/follow-your-boat 📽by HSC Roy Mesen Scott - Healy crew

I denne videon kan du høre historiene om ekspedisjonene til USS Jeannette og Fram på 1800-tallet. Se under for kreditering. I prosjektet Float Your Boat undersøker vi hvor fort isen drifter i dag, sammenlignet med Nansen sin Fram-ekspedisjon i 1893-1896. Dette kan du følge med på her: https://web.nersc.no/WebData/caatex.nersc.no/files/plot_map.html Denne videoen er tekstet på både norsk og engelsk. Velg språk under innstillinger/settings i videoen.
