Destination Antarctica (full show)

I traveled with a camera and a tripod more than 10,000 miles to get a glimpse of Antarctica and show the Ohio News Network viewers (1.7 million households) what is really happening at the bottom of the world. I got a very rare glimpse and full access to the US Antarctica program at McMurdo Station, South Pole Station and archive access the Ohio State's Byrd Polar Research Center. The buckeye state and Ohio State University both have tremendous legacies in Antarctica and I found Ohioans everywhere willing to help tell you how they are helping the scientific mission in Antarctica.

This is a great teaching tool for students. It helps shows the broad disciplines needed to help make this science enterprise run. It speaks generally about the need to understand our environment and why Antarctica, specifically, is of such high interest to researchers.
