If you’re in Sacramento on September 26th, come see @kathykasic give a free public talk complete with SALSA science team film clips and science stories, all part of the Sac State STEM lecture series.
Light shining through a tent's snow wall towards the end of camp. Its interesting to see how much the snow blocks degraded over time from the wind. Photo by Kathy Kasic, SALSA Education and Outreach. #nsfsalsa #antarctica #geology #wintercamping #antarctic
Retrieving the Gravity Corer.....This corer brought back the two largest sediment cores ever collected from an Antarctic subglacial lake. Photo by Kathy Kasic, SALSA Education and Outreach. #nsfsalsa #antarctica #geology #research
Tent poles turned to drying racks at SALSA camp. Dry socks can really make or break a good day at a field camp...Photo by Kathy Kasic, SALSA Education and Outreach. #antarctica #research #camp #camping #wintercamping #nsfsalsa

Last week, the SALSA Team reunited to put our brains and data together to continue uncovering the biological and geological story of Mercer Subglacial Lake. Stay tuned for many papers and exciting findings to come! #nsfsalsa #antarctica
Shoveling snow into our melt tank was a daily occurrence at camp. This melted snow was used as the drilling fluid in our hot water drill that bored through 3,500 feet of ice to access Mercer Subglacial Lake. Photo by Billy Collins, SALSA Education and Outreach. #antarctica #research
The SALSA Drill Team! Our work would have been impossible without the hard work and mechanical wizardry of these amazing Drillers. #nsfsalsa #nsf #antarctica #research #drilling
