Terra Antarctica, Re-Discovering the Seventh Continent

Over six weeks we journeyed along the Antarctic Peninsula by sea kayak, sailboat, on foot, and by light aircraft, documenting the rapid transformation of this remote frontier. Driven by climate change—temperatures along the Peninsula have risen faster than anywhere else on Earth over the last five decades—this region is also seeing a surge in tourism and intensifying geopolitical contests as the ice recedes. Sponsored by National Geographic, this expedition offers a singular view of Antarctica from a sea-level vantage point.
