Arctic Mission
On 14 August, Arctic Mission, led by British explorer Pen Hadow and skipper Erik de Jong, set sail on an amazing expedition by yacht to explore, discover and share the previously unseen wildlife and ecosystem of the ocean around the North Pole.
This voyage of discovery will also show why the survival of its wildlife may now face serious threats because so much of the summer-time sea ice no longer protects it from commercial exploitation.
So welcome aboard, as we make one of history’s most extreme and urgent voyages, putting everything on the line to explore this little-known and now vulnerable ecosystem in our planet’s overall life-supporting system.
