In Antarctica right now, a Haystack team is preparing 3 SGIPs (seismo-geodetic ice penetrators) to land on the Ross Ice Shelf and monitor ice melting and movement.
The SGIP devices will be dropped by helicopters and embedded into the ice: more at www.haystack.mit.edu/news/team-se... polar #geodesy

We had a great time hosting the #NSF #SpectrumX workshop, including students and staff from institutions across the country! Spectrum management: more important now than ever.
Thank you for a productive visitβlooking forward to getting this new technology out in the field with you! #radioastronomy
Hi Tara! We'd love to be included, and also look forward to working together with the community! Thank you for this π

Couple of highlights this week:
β’ Shipping out not one but TWO Antarctic projects (ice monitoring, polar aurora), PLUS a scientist (heads-up, #mcmurdo)
β’ Software radio construction w/students and SpectrumX, a #NationalScienceFoundation spectrum management centerβessential work today
More soon!
Please keep your hands and feet within the ride at all times, along with the rest of you. And hang on to your hats and glasses! π
