This expedition takes us from southern Africa's Cape of Good Hope to the islands of St. Helena, Ascension, Fernando Des Naronha and the Azores all the way up to Amsterdam in Holland. On this very special trip, we are meeting with scientists working with breeding whale populations, covering airport construction on St. Helena, working with climate change mapping systems through the UK Metereological office, and many more exciting and controversial projects.
