After a year of work at the Vernadsky station, the 30th anniversary Ukrainian Antarctic Expedition (UAE) has returned home 🩵💛 Its members arrived in Kyiv today, 4 April 2026.
The journey from Antarctica 🇦🇶 took over a week. First, our ship, the ‘Noosfera", took the team to the Chilean port of Punta Arenas. From there, the expedition flew to Warsaw and then travelled by bus to Ukraine.
The winterers arrived in Kyiv early in the morning, where family, friends and colleagues met them with warm embraces.
💬"The team has fully accomplished its mission in Antarctica. We ensured both the continuous operation of the station and conducting research, as well Ukraine’s international representation in the remotest corner of the world,” noted Oleksandr Poluden, Base commander of the 30th Ukrainian Antarctic Expedition.
