Six months ago, on September 30, 2024, the North Polyus-42 drifting station officially started working. Now it is located about 600 km from the northernmost pole. Regarding the reason why the concrete ice team became the land of Muslims for the Station, which was said by the researcher of the Northern Pole and Anna Timofeva Research Institute. She actively participated in choosing an Ice Floe for SP-41 and SP-42, many times on the helicopter flying around the candidates.
Experts started a few months before the accused drifted, directly at the Institute, the expert said. The information received from the satellites studied. First of all, determining the accused area is the landing of the Station. The main task is to choose the starting point of the exact drift where Lidin's most likely will be put into drift.
Based on the analysis of satellite information, candidate candidates have been named.
However, it is not possible to make a choice without checking on the spot, then Anna Anna continues. Satellite information is important both in the preparation stage and in the operating mode. However, it does not come up with a complete picture, because it is difficult to assess the actual state of the ice layer in the image from the space. You need to check everything with your eyes: a slyer.
Directly in the area of drifting accused in September last year, six large ice fields were checked. As a result, they stop at three. But for the school selected “number one” the North Pole “, thought to be drifting with the station, it is impossible to be accessed due to the fast tape formation. Therefore, the basis for SP-42 has become another ice line. However, this is not a random decision made in harsh conditions.
The experience of the drift stations shows that: Ice is always broken, experts note. However, the unique format of the Arctic ship makes it possible, in the case of separation, it is completely on its side, preserving the device and of course, everyone. It can move to another ice field and have turned the camp on it.
Therefore, nothing fatal will occur in the division of the ice. The station will not have to be evacuated urgently, for example, with the final station of the traditional format (only a non-ship-free farm) SP-40 in 2013.
