Arctic explorers have survived on drifting ice floes for decades. Since 1937, Russian scientists have conducted research from ice stations, but melting ice from rising temperatures complicates missions. Researchers have now developed an experimental ‘Ship and ice’ polar station, allowing teams to work on the ice while retreating to a ship ‘wedged’ into the floe as needed. This innovation aims to sustain Arctic research amid changing climate conditions.
