Teacher Sarah Slack is heading to Antarctica next week for the ship-based Thwaites Offshore Research expedition. The two-month expedition will be aboard the R/V Nathaniel B.

You can join Sarah on the expedition by reading her journals, joining live from the field events, and asking your questions.
