Flight data from ACY9010 – Cape Town, South Africa to Novolazarevskaya Station. You can TRACK at Flight Aware.

Keithโ€™s note: Astrobiologist Dale Andersen is heading back in Antarctica at Lake Untersee in January-February 2026 for another field season of research. After a 5-6 hr flight from Cape Town, South Africa, Dale and his team will land at the Novolazarevskaya Station ice-runway in Antarctica. They will unpack, gather their stored gear, and prepare for the overland traverse to their research camp at Lake Untersee in a few days. Update and photos here.
