Comments
Nuyina continues its voyage towards Antarctica to conduct cold weather trials. Yesterday, we experienced a significant drop in air temperature, which fell below the sea water temperature. We are beginning to observe the presence of bird life, indicating our proximity to the Antarctic region. Preparations are underway for the upcoming cold weather tests and trials, ensuring all necessary equipment and personnel are ready for deployment. We anticipate reaching our designated location on Saturday morning, where we will commence our planned tests.
