Dr. Rahul Jain, Medical Officer of #44ISEA (winter team) at #Maitri, captures Antarctica’s mesmerizing night sky in a stunning #starlapse! Shot on Insta360 X4 — 600 photos, every 3 seconds, stitching them together to showcase the celestial dance above the icy continent.. 🪐✨ #Antarctica #Astrophotography @moesgoi @Ravi_MoES @TMeloth @saini_ncpor

Analysis of 78 Antarctic soils shows coarse, low-coercivity magnetite dominates due to weathering, with magnetic data confirming mostly multidomain grains and minimal ultrafine input. #Antarctica #SoilScience #Geomagnetism doi.org/10.1016/j.geod…

The final lake coring of the season! 🎉 Incredible progress made in collaboration with Japan and Belgium, unlocking the secrets of Antarctic lakes one core at a time. #Antarctica #LakeCoring #ClimateResearch #Teamwork #ScienceInAction

The early days of the sunrise in Larsemann Hills just over the Continental Ice Sheet! The mesmerizing sun lits up the frozen sea- ice! @ncaor_goa @stapleslakes @WarrierAnish @dmello_cheryl @Rahul_Mohan_GOA

It is #AntarcticaDay and the start of the #summerseason. #Melting has begun… 👇👇 @stapleslakes @mahesh_badnal @dmello_cheryl @Rahul_Mohan_GOA @ncaor_goa

The Three Professors! Drilling through a 4m ice at Boulder Lake, Larsemann Hills East Antarctica! Not an easy task, will test your limits! @ncaor_goa @mahesh_badnal @dmello_cheryl @WarrierAnish @Rahul_Mohan_GOA

Almost 10 days of camping came to an end today with great results…the @stapleslakes team raised sediment cores from six lakes in the #BroknesPeninsula… #Antarcticclimate #sealevel @mahesh_badnal @dmello_cheryl @Rahul_Mohan_GOA @ncaor_goa @ugent @kyokuchiken @MAHE_Manipal

Kotoha Kosugi, the youngest kid in our group! A PhD student, checking out wind speed, temperature and humidity at the Boulder Lake, Larsemann Hills a East Antarctica. @ncaor_goa @kyokuchiken @mahesh_badnal @Rahul_Mohan_GOA @dmello_cheryl @WarrierAnish

Prof Philippe Huybrechts from @VUBrussel tries out his hand on the Jiffy to drill a hole into the 4m ice thick pig Boulder Lake, Larsemann Hills. @ncaor_goa @mahesh_badnal @Rahul_Mohan_GOA @dmello_cheryl @WarrierAnish

A surprisingly warm day at Larsemann Hills. Prof Elie Verleyen @ugent takes a break from this unusual warmth in Antarctica as the summer sets in! @ncaor_goa @dmello_cheryl @mahesh_badnal @WarrierAnish @Rahul_Mohan_GOA

Another couple of days of successful coring in Lake Lucia and Progress Lake! Excited to uncover a longer record reaching back in time. ❄️ #Antarctica #ClimateResearch #LakeCoring #STAPLES #ScienceInAction #FrozenHistory @ncaor_goa @Ravi_MoES @kyokuchiken @ugent @SCAR_Tweets

Observing the geomorphology of the study area provides valuable insights into past climatic conditions, geological processes, and landscape evolution. 🌍❄️ #Antarctica #Geomorphology #Fieldwork @ncaor_goa @Ravi_MoES @ScienceNews @SCAR_Tweets @mahesh_badnal @WarrierAnish

Dr cheryl, collecting surface sediment sample from Lake Lucia, Larsemann Hills. The surface sediments provide information on modern lake conditions. @ncaor_goa @Rahul_Mohan_GOA @dmello_cheryl @stapleslakes @WarrierAnish

After a few days of bad weather, we’re back in action! Camp is set up, and we’ve resumed lake coring in the Larsemann Hills. This core reveals distinct lithology, marking various climate phases—exciting discoveries ahead! ❄️📜 #Antarctica #ClimateResearch #Science #lakes

Caught a breathtaking sun halo while working in the field today—a magical moment in Antarctica's icy wilderness. ☀️❄️ #Antarctica #SunHalo #Fieldwork #nature

"Bharati" the Indian Research base from which we are currently working from in Larsemann Hills, East Antarctica. The third Indian research Station in Antarctica. Looks like a space ship! @dmello_cheryl @WarrierAnish @SCAR_Tweets @stapleslakes

Beautiful ice rosettes forming in the lake ice—nature's intricate artistry in Antarctica. ❄️✨ #Antarctica #IceFormations #Nature
