Spend a Year Frozen in the Ice with MOSAiC
More than 500 participants from over 16 nations have spent a year in the Arctic ice collecting important data on the Arctic climate system. From September 2019 through October 2020, the icebreaker RV Polarstern drifted across the central Arctic near the North Pole frozen in sea ice during one of the most extensive Arctic research expeditions ever conducted. You can learn more about the MOSAiC (Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate) research expedition at mosaic.colorado.edu! Bring MOSAiC into your classroom with Data Puzzles, 360-degree virtual experiences, the Polar Planetarium field trip, classroom curriculum, and more learning resources. Experience MOSAiC all around you with two planetarium films featuring footage captured by videographers on the Polarstern now showing at Fiske Planetarium in Boulder (also available to view in 2D).
