The sixth Belarusian Antarctic expedition begins on 5 November.
This year the expedition will comprise three specialists: head of the expedition, acting head of the national center for polar research Alexei Gaidashov, environmental engineer of the NASB research and practice center for bioresources Yuri Giginyak, and geophysical engineer of the national research center for ozonosphere monitoring of the Belarusian State University Ilya Bruchkovsky. Instead of their permanent base (the field base Gora Vechernyaya) this time the Belarusian polar explorers will head to the Russian station Progress in Eastern Antarctica on the shore of the Prydz Bay near the Larsemann Hills.
The Belarusian team will arrive on 14 December to return to Minsk on 14 April 2014. Top administrators of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus met with members of the expedition on 4 November. Chairman of the NASB Presidium Vladimir Gusakov noted that the launch of the sixth Belarusian expedition to Antarctica was an important event. “It is the best confirmation that Belarus is a country that carries out full-scale unique researches of great international importance,” he stressed.
