The annual crew changeover at the Akademik Vernadskyi station has been completed. The scientific vessel Noosfera will deliver members of the 30th UAE to a port in Chile.

Ukrainian drones hit the Russian port of Ust-Luga in the Leningrad region of the Russian Federation. In particular, an enemy icebreaker was damaged.

The entire journey from the Chilean port of Punta Arenas to the Akademik Vernadskyi station on Galindez Island took three and a half days.

Non-ice-class vessels are allowed to pass only with individual icebreaker escorts, and the wait for convoys has stretched to 5–7 days.

The research vessel covered the route from Chile to the station through the Drake Passage in five days.

The scientific research icebreaker “Noosfera” has reached the Polish station “Artztowski” in Antarctica.

The fifth Antarctic season of the Ukrainian icebreaker “Noosfera” has started – it should become a record in terms of the number of studies and cooperation with other countries.

Ukraine will host the first Mexican Antarctic expedition at the Akademik Vernadsky station, and joint research will be conducted aboard the “Noosfera”.

The crew of the British icebreaker “Sir David Attenborough” visited the Ukrainian Antarctic station.

Meteorologists conducted a unique experiment — they launched radiosondes from the Akademik Vernadskyi station and the “Noosfera” vessel simultaneously.
