We are proud to announce our support to the Under Antarctica Expedition.
Starting in November 2025, French glaciologist Heidi Sevestre and explorer Matthieu Tordeur will undertake an unprecedented kite-ski crossing of Antarctica. They will tow 2 ground-penetrating radars to map the ice layers beneath the surface along the route, providing essential insights into Antarctica’s ice-sheet dynamics and its role in sea-level rise.

This 3,600-km expedition combines a scientific approach to better understand ice-sheet dynamics with an innovative and environmentally friendly exploration mode. It will provide valuable data sets to help improve climate and coastal-impact modeling, and will result in a documentary to be released in 2026 to raise awareness for a broad audience about the challenges of climate change.
