episode 127: Antarctic support with Sharon Labudda
For every Scientist in Antarctica at least 5 support staff are needed. Dr Karl meets one of them. Sharon Labudda. She's in logistics but will turn her hand to fixing engines, carting supplies or getting scientists and their experiments done safely. Dr Karl also gets a lesson in how to speak Antarctican. What's a Yellow Hagg, the AAD, a Deezo or an FTL? Dr Karl traveled south to Casey research station as part of the Australian Antarctic Program.
