Join us as members of the MOSAiC expedition education and outreach team lead you through the new MOSAiC-related curriculum "Exploring the New and Old Arctic”. The curriculum can easily be adapted to virtual learning as students engage with immersive 360° virtual expeditions, authentic Arctic datasets, and App-based labs.

About MOSAiC

The MOSAiC expedition is one of the largest Arctic research expeditions ever conducted with more than 500 scientists from 19 countries participating. The goal of the expedition is to study all aspects of the changing Arctic climate system by freezing a ship in ice and drifting with the ice for an entire year! Since the start of the expedition in September 2019, MOSAiC scientists have braved sub-zero temperatures, months of total darkness, curious polar bears, and logistical challenges in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite these obstacles, this unprecedented expedition has persisted and will continue through October 2020.
