Low temperature (-15°C ) operational test of the battery package in the Antarctic penetrator

In order to perform seismic explosion experiments in the crevassed area of the Antarctic ice sheet, a seismometer deployable from the air is desired. We have developed such a helicopter-deployable system (called the Antarctic penetrator), which consists of a Ground System Segment (GSS) and an Automa...
