After getting a ride on the Russian ice breaker to McMurdo Station, Keegan (far right), Captain Mills (middle seat), Captain Lee (front seat), and I got a helicopter ride back to our ship, which was still stuck in the ice 20 miles away. This is a video of us taking off. Right after we take off you can see McMurdo Station. Towards the end of the video, the pilot, Paul, points towards Scott Base, the New Zealand base which is a cluster of kiwi colored buildings.
