How We Commute to Work in Antarctica

MCMURDO STATION, ANTARCTICA They are many ways that people commute to work in the morning — some by car, or bus, or maybe walk or ride a bike. Getting to work in Antarctica can be just as varied. One of them is by helicopter. This footage, shot during our trip to Westhaven Nunatak, is an example of our commute to work.
