The Growth Chamber in Action

Now that winter is here, we've fired up the growth chamber to grow things like this strawberry donut. The record for the growth chamber is 160 pounds a week. Thats a lot of donuts. I hear they're mostly water.

Volunteering at the Day Care center today

One great thing about working at the South Pole is you get many roles. Firefighter, photographer, journalist, store clerk, greenhouse planter, sushi chef, and sometimes babysitter at the Day Care Center.
