A live connection with a space analogue research station in Antarctica
Have you ever wondered what it is like living in one of the most secluded places on Earth? Adrianos Golemis connected with Sascha Freigang and others via a live link to Concordia Station in Antarctica. The crew spoke about the challenges of living in Antarctica, the effects of loneliness over an extended period, and how individuals cope with significant low temperatures and lack of exposure to light.
