#ARCTIC. #SIBERIA. THIS IS TAIMYR. Researchers harvested fresh herbs at the height of the polar night at the Cape Baranov Ice Base research station, which is located on the Novaya Zemlya archipelago.
The expedition season lasts six months, and polar explorers spend their free time doing their favorite hobbies. This was reported in the press service of the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute (AARI).
Useful greens rich in vitamins were grown by Anastasia Kirillova, hydrochemist of the station. This is not the first time that the crop is harvested here, it all falls into the polar explorers’ dishes. After Anastasia’s departure for the mainland, meteorologist Marina Loskutova took over the garden baton.
